Lydon's post-Pistols plunge into dub-heavy, dread-soaked experiment. Challenging and influential. A post-punk landmark. Released in 1979, it's a standout in Public Image Ltd's catalogue.

On vinyl: Vintage copies and modern reissues both circulate — worth comparing condition and remaster notes before you buy.
