Public Image Ltd.- Under The House

[@benedettobruno1669]

Always and forever, thank you to Great Britain and the British people whose creativity, since the 1960s, has given the rest of the World hundreds of unique bands such as the Public Image Limited and music of unparalleled beauty, quirkiness and atmosphere. What would our lives have been without British bands? Thank you from Sicily.

Jerry Lee Lewis might disagree. Funny how John Lennon kissed his feet and most of the British Invasion imitated...yeah, every band emulates and copies the sounds before.

Respect to you from the UK 🙌

[@user-li3fr8jl3b]

@@theunknowngamer5477 Why would Jerry Lee Lewis give a fuck about a comment on KZbin 😅

One of the best albums ive got in my collection. I think its PiLs masterpiece. Every song is perfect and the drums on this album are really the best ive ever heard

[@marlonstpeters2505]

i agree, for me, the trilogy of (public image, metal box and flowers of romance) each had a focus on a different portion of the band...public image - guitars, metal box - keyboards and bass, flowers of romance - drums..absolutely brilliant...

[@pauloreilly2881]

Martin Atkins drumming is absolutely brilliant!!!

[@hfrancis4893]

Always perceived this album as a concept, some dark medieval horror story, dungeons and all. Regarding "Under the House' how can one drummer do this? It sounds like 2 drummers drumming simultanously.

[@demetridabum]

It is two drum tracks , when they play it live they use two drummers. That would be pretty gnarly if he could pull it off lmfaoo

[@davidl570]

H Francis Always felt the same way! Easily their darkest and creepiest album.

[@nodge1000]

Various intoxicants + 'haunted' studio (apparently) = eerie masterpiece.

[@greenygreens]

it is a masterpiece. the work of a genius we would all agree

[@gontierfrancois8115]

I agree

[@sexobscura]

A to D

[@hifiction]

great album but underappreciated

[@davidsykes1281]

The general population doesn’t get it ! But lots others too who should know better ! But that’s the great secret.. all music is slightly confronting just like the lyrics ! Lydon awesome ! Fuck the haters !!

[@JoeOtero]

Martin Atkins is a beast!

Under the house Under the house It came out of the wall A single cadaver It went under the house Scream in the trees Under the moon Solid the grave (Vile stinking) Stone cold ambition Solid and gross It went under the house It's not the sun I wear as a crown I colour the clouds Under the house Solid the grave Stone cold ambition (Solid discreet) It came out of the wall A single cadaver It went under the house A scream in the trees Under the moon Ages apart Under the house It's not the sun I wear as a crown I follow the clouds Under the house Scream in the trees Under the moon It came out of the wall A single cadaver It went under the house The jugular bulge rips Steal if I could Under the house (Ages apart, under the house) Scream in the trees Under the moon (Under the house) It went under the house Under the house A scream in the trees Under the moon The vile stink in my nostril A single cadaver (Stone cold ambition) It clouded out of the wall Solid disgrace It's not the sun that I wear as a crown (Every breeze brings disease) Ages apart Under the house Mercenary

[@stephenbier7992]

best cassette I ever bought

[@marklaviolette6474]

Stephen Bier that a boy! I agree ;)

[@captainbimble]

Utterly brilliant track. I remember hearing it when the album was first released and it blew me away. So out there!

[@mididoctors]

Reputed to be inspired by a bummer acid trip of John's at the manor house they recorded the album. Folk law

[@joeydanielski962]

I got this record a few years ago from my salvation army. I'm still trying to figure it out. I keep coming back.

[@novianovioTV]

‘That’s the one I liked (most)’ I said out loud

[@meowzer999]

Spooky yes spooky very *spooky*.

[@mmmcomfy]

Separated at birth: PiL - Under The House & Killing Joke - The Fall Of Because. Both 1981.

[@Tamesis66]

It would be cool if someone did a mashup with the two tracks!

[@danabrahams7892]

In places this album was incredible...

[@gontierfrancois8115]

What's under thé house ?

[@captainbimble]

You don't want to know!

[@silversnail1413]

John Lydon claims he saw a ghost in the basement of the house they recorded the album in and that's where the song came from. He was probably high at the time but it's still a good story.

[@kowalityjesus]

sounds exactly like hoarse lords

[@duckface524]

am i the only person that hears Bowie's Subterraneans in the beginning

[@mightymax9948]

Who's here because of the Denon Audio Technical CD

[@nic32174]

LOL. I have those test music pieces burned in my brain. I even bought Pictures at an Exhibition because of it.

[@jcBurton2094]

HEY... stop it. You're almost ripping off Boney M's "Nightflight to Venus" (just kidding. Frank Farian gets what he deserves)
