OK. I am a way huge fan of * actual * punk. This is it. This is the real deal, even I was blown away as my exposure, which is hugely positive, towards PIL has always been "later" material. This album is kind of insane in a way considering simply how "hard" it is and how even then, political and social it is. I don't know enough to fully say, but I would suggest at least that PIL is very likely a band that is "highly" or "sorely" underrated. When people are asked about what they know of the punk era, PIL is probably an afterthought and it ought not be that way at all! If you want punk served unapologetically on a plate, here it is.
