Tribute: A Tribute To Public I
On May 24th, 2005, Underground, Inc. released a tribute to Public Image Limited, one of the most influential post punk
bands of the last two decades. With contributions from an eclectic group of artists spanning 30 years and 3 continents,
"tribute"pays fitting. ...The Sex Pistols were a tough act to follow, even for Johnny Rotten. After that band's entropic
dissolution, Rotten reclaimed his civilian surname, Lydon, and started Public Image Ltd.. Martin Atkins joined in 1979
in time to contribute to the band's second release 'Metal Box'. He stayed (off and on) until 1985. Then started his own
label Invisible Records...... 25 years after the bands classic, disruptive appearance on American Bandstand, martin has
compiled a ground-breaking, genre twisting tribute to PiL with contributions from an eclectic group of artists spanning
30 years; underlining PiL's contribution to the current scene, or emphasizing the current scene's fascination with this
era of PiL... never simply a sound, but an attitude. Some of martin's never before seen photographs appear within the
artwork of this essential CD. From CAN to Winterbrief, The Damage Manual to The Countdown, Hanin Elias of Atari Teenage
Riot to Pete Jones (one-time bass player with PiL). Sheep on Drugs to Chris Haskett of Rollins band. October file and
more.
