PIL - 29th September 2015 , De La Warr Pavilion, Bexhill on Sea

This is my first share of 2016, I'd thought I would start off with a dodgy recording and get it out of the way before I give you something more pleasing to listen to, Here's a rough recording of the earliest gig to surface (so far) from last years tour.
Its not easy listening as there's a shed load of distortion. I would say this is one for the completists out there.
Its not easy on the ears, but I have always said I'm happy to share what I have regardless of the quality until a better version pops up.

YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED!

ACID DROPS EXCLUSIVE! PIL - 20th November 2015 - Gothic Theater, Englewood, Denver, CO

This is an Acid Drops exclusive recording.

This was recorded by friend & supporter of the blog Volcano Man. He recorded the show with the specific purpose of sending it my way to share with all you PIL fans out there.

This recording is NOT available anywhere else on the net (until some cheeky sod grabs it from here & posts it elsewhere - which is fine as long as credit is given to the original source)

This really is a very good recording of the show and I know you'll all enjoy it.

PIL - new single, LP & Tour announced

PUBLIC IMAGE LTD WILL RELEASE THE ALBUM

 'WHAT THE WORLD NEEDS NOW…' ON 4TH SEPTEMBER

 AHEAD OF A 23-DATE UK/EUROPE TOUR THAT KICKS OFF ON 18th SEPTEMBER

Press Release: 
May 18th 2015

Public Image Ltd (PiL) announce the release of their 10th studio album
'What The World Needs Now…' on 4th September 2015.
The 11-track album follows the huge critical success of 2012's 
'This is PiL', the band's first album in 17 years. 

Album opener and lead single 'Double Trouble' sees the band launching into
 a statement of intent that will be released on 21st August.
The 10" vinyl version will be backed by 'Bettie Page' and also come with additional
 non-album bonus track 'Turkey Tits'.

Commenting on the new album, John Lydon says, “Buy now while stocks last.”

Widely regarded as one of the most innovative and influential bands of
 all time, PiL's music and vision earned them 5 UK Top 20 singles and
 5 UK Top 20 albums. With a shifting line-up and unique sound,
John Lydon guided the band from their debut album 'First Issue' in 1978
 through to 1992's 'That What Is Not'. After a 17 year hiatus,
Lydon reactivated PiL in 2009 by taking them back on the road worldwide.

Last year the band returned to Steve Winwood's Wincraft studio in
the Cotswolds' to record the new album. Released on 4th September,
'What The World Needs Now…' precedes the start of their
23-date UK/Europe tour, which kicks off in Glasgow on 18th September
 and follows on from last year's one-off sold-out show at London's
Indigo at the 02. The UK/Europe tour will be followed by North America dates.
