PiL - HOME

On this date in 1986, PiL released their fifth studio album, ALBUM, (January 27th, 1986).

On 1986’s ALBUM (also known as Compact Disc or Cassette depending on the format), producer Bill Laswell had assembled a band enough to slacken even the most hardened cynic's jaw – aside from Laswell himself on bass and John Lydon, the outfit featured Yellow Magic Orchestra's Ryuichi Sakamoto on keyboards, Tony Williams, the legendary Ginger Baker on drums and find-of-the-month Steve Vai on crunchola guitar.

ALBUM was arguably the strongest selection of poptunes PiL had turned out since Metal Box, one of the great LPs of the '80s.

The video here is the post-punk snarl of HOME, the underrated second and final single from ‘Album’.
