75 freakin years old and still rocking. Andre Williams is pretty amazing if you get a chance go see him (sounds not perfect here but what the hell it is rock and roll)

A couple songs from this album have been playing in my mind this week.
Like this one:


(Cool video, too, sorry for the ads. Funny, we didn't *see* videos at the time: no TVs, never mind cable. I'm discovering this stuff for the first time. )

And there's something just delightful about this one:

And, from I think an underrated album of theirs... A song I always wanted to do, preferably with a horn section:

Cool. I'm always joking that the world missed out on a perfectly good New Waver by cheesing me off.

Yeah we were lucky in Canada. We got everything.

But I very much prefer PIL before their corporate period. Even their single kicked. Nice riff, Keith!

early Pil is my favourite, Kicked off an after hours party in a deconsecrated church with this is religion, then the opening act was the baby slitters. I'm going straight to hell if it exists

Especially with more recent TV associations, some version of this song belongs on the soundtrack somewhere, though.

Gods, though, that John Lydon poem's a reminder how pissed everyone was about some surreal situations. There's times I regret not taking it more seriously, but I knew what it was that I *wasn't.* People dismiss sometimes that at the time there were *real reasons* to be pissed and apparently still are and have been. Not just the retrospectively-obvious ones, either: the fact that what we're living in now wasn't all *that* hard to see coming, nor what was between:

(Not bothering to link a Freeze song. ) Some things, perhaps, shouldn't be reunion-toured.


But, screw that, this one's going out to those from South Dakota, in those schools for Native Americans: One with staying power from the old hometown:

Heh, loses something in translation, but another town, too::

(And pardon me actually getting my punk up, but I'm just sick of hearing of the next hundred or thousand 'isolated incidents,' not to mention people acting out whatever madness it takes to live in denial of the crazy and repeat it... Gods know it's... Wool over everyone's eyes, still. ) I did a paper once on it all in like a contemporary lit crit class, and the professor was like, 'This is good, you totally left out the *rage.*' And maybe that's Boston or something, but yeah. And, eh, I dunno, it was back when Goths were punk rockers with poetry and like too much Baudelaire, but I just keep seeing more and more fallout, and keep thinking, 'For all the BS, we were *aware* of the BS, even the boys with their ....well, boy stuff and all*


Even pretentious John Lydon poetry. Funny thing is sometimes it's the *early* stuff we loved at the time that seems more pretentious somehow.

Like this, which apparently made some movie soundtrack: Pretty:

Just pretty art, but I think his later stuff pissed a lot of people off cause it was *critical* of some things having become buyable, (And I assure you, I can belt out 'Public Image' with the best of them, ....it just came off narcissistic celebrity crap to me as a teen, later on it got more relevant to me. )

Lyrics included here, though, actually: Wonder who heard.
