About

Public Image Ltd (abbreviated and stylised as PiL) are an English post-punk band formed by lead vocalist John Lydon (previously, as Johnny Rotten, lead vocalist of the Sex Pistols), guitarist Keith Levene (a founding member of the Clash), bassist Jah Wobble, and drummer Jim Walker in June 1978. The group's line-up has changed frequently over the years; Lydon has been the sole constant member.

Following Lydon's departure from the Sex Pistols in January 1978, he sought a more experimental "anti-rock" project and formed PiL in June of that year. PiL released their debut studio album First Issue (1978), creating an abrasive, bass-heavy sound that drew on dub, noise, progressive rock and disco. PiL's second studio album Metal Box (1979) pushed their sound further into the avant-garde, and is often regarded as one of the most important albums of the post-punk era. Their third album, The Flowers of Romance, has also been cited as an influential post-punk record.

By 1984, Levene, Wobble and Walker had departed and the group was effectively a solo vehicle for Lydon, who moved toward a more accessible sound with the commercially successful studio albums This Is What You Want... This Is What You Get (1984) and Album (1986). After a late 1990s hiatus, Lydon reformed the group in 2009 and has released several further albums, including What the World Needs Now... (2015).

Public Image Limited, parfois typographié Public Image Ltd ou Public Image Ltd., et souvent abrégé PiL, est un groupe de post-punk britannique, originaire de Londres, en Angleterre. Il est formé en 1978 par Johnny « Rotten » Lydon à la dissolution des Sex Pistols.

Après la formation du groupe, ce dernier publie un premier album studio, Public Image: First Issue (1978), qui se caractérise par un style musical abrasif avec des éléments de dub reggae, musique bruitiste, et de rock progressif. Leur deuxième album, Metal Box (1979), pousse encore plus loin le style avant-gardiste, et est souvent considéré comme l'un des albums les plus novateurs et influents de la période post-punk.

En 1984, Levene et Wobble quittent le groupe, qui part dans la direction de Lydon, et qui publiera plusieurs autres albums, comme This Is What You Want... This Is What You Get (1984). Après une pause dans les années 1990, Lydon reforme le groupe et publie d'autres albums, dont What the World Needs Now... en 2015 et le dernier, End Of World, en 2023.
