10 JUL 2026 - Back up to full speed! Let's be honest: for the last few months, TorrentFunk was painfully slow. Pages crawled, searches dragged, and just loading the site tested everyone's patience. We hunted the problem down to our network and rebuilt it from the ground up — smarter caching, a much bigger and faster connection, and a lot of fine-tuning under the hood. The difference is night and day: the site now loads in a fraction of a second. No more waiting around. Thanks for sticking with us through the slow spell. Now go discover your funk!
“You are now entering a PiL zone!” John Lydon bellows at the top of the first Public Image Ltd album in 20 years, and indeed you’ll recognize the place straightaway: Backed by the same guys he recruited for PiL’s 2009-’10 reunion tour (including Happy? alums Lu Edmonds and Bruce Smith), Lydon rants and chants in his long-established fashion over swirling, dub-steeped soundscapes that once in a while gather into actual songs. “One Drop” is an early highlight, with the frontman unloading some very Lydon-esque observations on English culture (“We come from chaos / We cannot change us”); later, in “Deeper Water,” Edmonds unleashes the kind of spooky-romantic guitar riff that made PiL heroes to a generation of post-post-punks. Things get a little boggy in the wacky-voices menagerie “Lollipop Opera” and the misleadingly titled “Out of the Woods,” which stretches its middling death-disco groove well beyond the nine-minute mark. But what’s a Lydon album without a bit of bollocks?
