No Condition Is Permanent

Pictured: Public Image Ltd. (l. to r.: Keith Levene, John Lydon, Jah Wobble).

Public Image sprang initially from [singer John] Lydon’s desire to avoid the Rock’n’Roll thrash of the Sex Pistols. He was obsessed with the space of dub, while [guitarist Keith] Levene had refined his guitar playing into a barrage of ringing noise. This was post-Punk, definitely experimental. ‘I wanted to do something which was true power,’ says [bassist Jah] Wobble, ‘not choppy rhythm guitars out of time, loud. When you’re thinking about music you’re thinking about something supposed  to have a lasting effect. That bass will be reverberating for years.’

— Jon Savage, England’s Dreaming: Anarchy, Sex Pistols, Punk Rock and Beyond.
