Public Image Ltd. - Four Enclosed Walls Lyrics
Alla
Alla
Doom sits in gloom in his room
Destroy the infidel
In a mosque
Is a sword
Is a Saracen
Alla
Joan of Arc was a sorcerer
The trilogy, the desert sand
Scriptures in the tower of Babel
Alla
Only ending is easy
Burn
Burn
In the tower
Only ending is easy
Alla
Arise in the East
The trilogy
Alla
Alla
I take heed
Arise in the West
A new crusade

So it appears Big Country took this drum riff and added a melody on top of it. Very similar. Townhouse Studios gated reverb utterly timeless
Still the shit!!!
music must be like that! minimal, unconscious, surprising, and perfect!
Cool as hell.. Love the drums and the minimalism of the track👍
My love for this song is a awesome story
It is unreal how I fell in love with this song it is the most extraordinary song I’ve ever heard it came out the same time as Metallica Master of puppets and about this concert as a post to Metallica I hate to say that because I’ve seen Metallica tallest in honesty

PUT THE ORIGINAL COVER PHOTO AND NOT THAT FUCKING HORRIBLE SHIT !
Islam summed up in four minutes forty four, many many years before it became a threat to the world. Lydon is a genius
O lord another one and his religious bogeymen. If you think Islam is a threat to the entire world then you're giving it way too much credit LOL
the Drums on this is crazy !!!
Have you heard of gated Reverb? Also known as the 1980s Phil Collins drums. Since you are so inclined you have to look up the history on this. Public Image Limited was influenced and influenced Peter Gabriel and Phil Collins and Genesis. Also of note if you listen these drums are exactly the same beat as Phil Collins later did with the song I know there's something going on by Frida
Really genuinely sinister. Disturbing album. I adore it.
Have i seen that picture in photographed form somewhere?
Yes. The original cover is a photograph (it looks a lot better).
Their best album ;)

Who'd a thought some pseudo-punks would come knockin' on Yoko's door... begging for guidance?
I like I like very good comment
Such uncomfortable close-up sounds. Quite disturbingly right in your ear. It's like what the glitch electronica people tried to do in like 1998, except actually good. Instead of rubbish.
Still this was a decade+ or so ahead.When people actually played instruments.
Absolutely amazing how people still think that music made with intstruments is somehow more valuable than electronic music. And they always associate "instrument-music" with rock, almost never with classical, because it can just as easily be said that classical music is more valuable than pop music, which is also absurd. And what glitch electonica are you talking about? Artists like vladislav delay, oval, pan sonic and ryoji ikeda have little in commom with this.
Could very easily have been written recently.....loved it back then and still do...
Best drumline ever!
after all of these years of loving this song I know that drum beat is in my DNA
Doom sitting gloom in his room. FUCK I love the way he sings on this
Fucking brilliant.
- who f.cked-up the COVER - I remember beautiful cover girl on it - and there was nothing wrong with her teeth ( back in early 80's )
It's Jeannette Lee, who is now co-owner of Rough Trade !
in a class of its own
Is this the album with the incredible Ginger Baker on Batterie?
no, it's still Martin Atkins
@John Maguire Ginger Baker is on the 'Generic' album.
@Garrett Johnson Thanks :-)
@Mauro Milone sounding LOADS like Jaki Liebezeit!
This is an extremely great album to do LSD to, I'm not kidding, WHAT a great part of a music catalog for a trip. It truly does freak some people out on acid through, I lost a few party members from losing it over this one. Absolutely part of my standard tripping playlist though!
Mark Huster ....oh absolutely brotha! Tripped several times in high school to this and oingo boingo's "nothing to fear"... And others ,but yeah this album has a certain evocation that lends itself to LSD . In a great way ..BLACKSTAR!!!!!!
My imagination is too heavy to do acid to this record. I did LSD 3 times. 1st time was amazing. 2nd was horrible. 3rd was fun but I could have done without. But too each there own. I will stick with a few drinks and tobacco.
whilst this all for you...
A fantastic album.....very unusual at the time.....remember waiting for the next Pil and this was it....saw them on tour for the album as well.....a fave ....
I love the opening piece. I remember banging at a table at our university dormitory room in Warsaw in 1988. 4 of us. 2 didn't like it ;-)
Most timeless
Could very easily just have been brought out this could!!! |I'd love someone to remix this such as kris needs or simon posford!!!
Shit, its all great...
I love dancing to this song!
one more astounding song from this cherished lp, still pulsing my life ;)
le 1er CD que j'ai acheté d'eux... à cause de la pochette.
