Public Image Limited 北京专场

Modern Sky is happy to present Public Image Limited with two performances, March, 30, 2013, in Beijing Yugong Yishan, and March, 31, in Shanghai Mao Livehouse. The band was founded in England in 1978, and this is the first time for them to perform in China ever. The vocalist John Lydon is best known for his other identity: Johnny Rotten, that’s right! - the vocalist of the legendary Sex Pistols. After Sex Pistols announced their break up in 1978, he organized a new post-punk band which albums later became landmarks in post-punk music history.

Not long after founding the band, John Lydon got fed up with that time punk "Golden Era" after Sex Pistols, and couldn't take its well-packaged and pretentious protests and anger. This led to the band's debut album "First Issue" (1978), that can be considered the revival of punk music after its self-destruction. The album combined a number of overdubs, progressive rock elements, random noises, atonalities. as well as Lydon's egoistic lyrics made horror, misfortune, fear the album's main themes. "First Issue" was one of a few albums of that era that represented the bright future of punk.

摩登天空2013开年钜献 
Public Image Limited 北京专场

2013年3月30日，北京愚公移山，3月31日上海maolivehouse，摩登天空荣誉呈现Public Image Limited（公众形象公司）双城专场演出，这也是这支传奇乐队自1978年组队后首次来华。Public Image Limited来自英国，主唱John Lydon在此前有个更为大众所熟知的身份：Johnny Rotten，没错坏牙！77朋克时代先锋，一代传奇朋克乐队性手枪的主唱。在1978年性手枪美国行后他宣布离队，组建公众形象公司乐队，不管你喜欢后朋克这种音乐曲风与否，他们的大胆尝试都促成了这种风格的最终形成，乐队的数张专辑都已成为后朋克音乐里程碑式的作品。

John Lydon在乐队组建初期更多的是想表达对当时朋克盛世的厌倦，在性手枪俨然一副世界朋克之王的模样之后，被包装出的愤怒已经无法再糊弄这个聪明绝顶的英国混蛋，因此制作出了首张能代表朋克自取灭亡后出现的崭新声音的专辑。《First Issue》 结合了叠录、先进摇滚、噪音、无调性等元素，Lydon歌词中的自我主义以及对表现厄运、恐惧的嗜好主宰了整张专辑。1978年发行时是少数能代表摇滚乐未来走向的唱片之一。
