Get proper emotions.' The shows at Heaven, London promise to be very special with PiL showcasing live some of their first new material for 20 years taken from the recently announced EP 'One Drop' released for Record Store Day onApril 21st and forthcoming album 'This Is PiL' May 28th. Live favourites such as 'Rise', 'This Is Not A Love Song' and 'Flowers Of Romance' are also likely to be performed. These new shows will follow on from PiL's already sold out special guest live performance as part of BBC Radio 6 Birthday celebrations at Queen Elizabeth Hall on March 16th. Public Image Ltd can confirm that a 4 track 'EP' entitled 'One Drop' is set to be released for 'Record Store Day' on April 21st, marking their first new material for 20 years.

Both the new EP and album is self-funded by PiL and will be released on PiL's own label 'PiL Official' viaCargo UK Distribution. All the new material was recorded in the UK last year at Steve Winwood's studio in the Cotswolds. 'One Drop is a reflection of where I grew up in Finsbury Park, London. The area that shaped me, and influenced me culturally and musically, a place I will forever feel connected to. But within this I am also saying it doesn't matter where you come from, we all go through the same emotions especially the disenchanted youth of today, yesterday and the future. Bearing in mind the Olympics are in London this year and who knows what that could bring for London and our country..'
