Public Image Limited - Second Edition (aka Metal Box) (1980)
This, PiL’s 2nd outing, is equal parts atrocious and astounding. It’s also possibly one of the most challenging and divisive records in my entire collection.

commentsWhile I’ve heard the odd song from the album over the years, I have never listened to this record in it’s entirety.
commentsThere’s a scene in the Sopranos, I don’t know what season, yet alone what episode, but someone gets whacked around the head with a telephone at the “Badda Bing” club.
commentsCabaret Voltaire sounded like a precursor to the Underworld sound way back in the late 70’s, early 80’s. While not nearly as accessible they were the original conventional noise assassins.
commentsMy first ever encounter with Midlake was this, their second record. OK, I’m not a proud man but America’s “Homecoming”, which is way up near the top of my “guilty pleasures” list, springs to mind.
