Public Image LTD's first album - the fittingly entitled First Issue from 1978 - was about as good as debut albums get. Light In The Attic have secured full rights to this reissue and have pressed it up on to gatefold red vinyl, making it all the more of a collectors' piece. Featuring bassist Jah Wobble, drummer Jim Walker and guitarist Keith Levene, the band were noted for their experimental approach and the way they drew from dance, Krautrock and dub to come up with their idiosyncratic sound, marking a radical departure from the raw punk of singer John Lydon's infamous previous band the Sex Pistols. At the heart of each tune is a real fondness for proper rhythm which his why the album did so well.
