That What Is Not, the eighth studio album by Public Image Ltd, came out on Virgin in February 1992, and it's John Lydon's band in its lean, muscular rock phase, a long way from the avant-garde abrasion of Metal Box. Dave Jerden produced, and this is the last stand for guitarist John McGeoch and bassist Allan Dias, two longtime members, with Mike Joyce on drums.
McGeoch's guitars slash and chime while Lydon sneers, yelps and snarls like he's still got scores to settle, and "Covered" gets the best of both. Nobody knew it at the time, but it was PiL's final album before a very long silence.
