Album Notes & Community Reviews

Collaborating with former Sex Pistols guitarist Steve Jones, the punk icon sought a return to aggressive, loud guitar music following a period of synthesizer-heavy experimentation. The production leans heavily into commercial hard rock and heavy metal aesthetics, providing a booming foundation for his signature baritone sneer.
