I think what I like best about PiL is that it would never occur to me to make music that sounds so simple-minded and ****ty, and yet the results are both alienating and strangely catchy. I mean they basically just have the one bass beat on every song, and it's kind of the central feature of every song, and the weirdo guitar is almost drowned out somewhere in the background, and Johnny Rotten doesn't even sound like he's singing. This should be terrible. But it's awesome.
