Metal Box / Second Edition (1979-UK/1980-USA) - Public Image Ltd.

« Public Image Ltd.

This two-record set was a cerebral alternative to the speedy punk and pop of the time. Yet while there are the mind-bendy songs like the 10-minute "Albatross," you can find pre-rave dance tunes like "Swan Lake" and "Careering."

Second Edition is actually the U.S. version of Metal Box, which PiL released in 1979.
