PiL were born in 1978 after Lydon’s time as the lead singer of the Sex Pistols, although they soon became a project with their own personality with which the sound of post-punk was renewed, pointing out different paths and combining previous genres to take us to new terrain. Throughout their career, they signed essential works such as “Metal Box” (79) or the success of songs like “This Is Not a Love Song” (1983), in addition to accumulating several singles and albums in the Top 20 in the United Kingdom. His sound, always evolving, has influenced several generations of artists
This new tour comes at a particularly significant time for Lydon. After a very difficult personal period – the loss of his wife Nora in April 2023 and the sudden death of his manager and close friend, John “Rambo” Stevens, in December of the same year – the vocalist came to think that he would not perform with PiL again. However, the public response during his recent tour of spoken word in the United Kingdom he changed that course.
