As Johnny Rotten, he was the lead singer of the Sex Pistols—the world's most notorious band, who shot to fame in the mid-1970s with singles such as 'Anarchy in the UK' and 'God Save the Queen'. Via his music and invective, he spearheaded a generation of young people across the world clamouring for change and found it in the style and attitude of this most unlikely figurehead.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eWith his next band, Public Image Ltd (PiL), Lydon expressed an equally urgent impulse in his make-up—the constant need to reinvent himself. From their beginnings in 1978, he set the template for a band that continues to challenge and thrive in the 2010s. He also found time to make innovative new dance records with the likes of Afrika Baambaata and Leftfield.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eFollowing the release of a solo record in 1997, John took a sabbatical from his music career into other media, most memorably his own Rotten TV show for VH1 and as the most outrageous contestant ever on \u003cem\u003eI'm a Celebrity... Get Me Out of Here!\u003c\/em\u003e He then fronted the \u003cem\u003eMegabugs\u003c\/em\u003e series and one-off nature documentaries and even turned his hand to a series of much-loved TV advertisements for Country Life butter.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eLydon has remained a compelling and dynamic figure—both as a musician and, thanks to his outspoken, controversial, yet always heartfelt and honest statements, as a cultural commentator. \u003cem\u003eAnger is an Energy: My Life Uncensored\u003c\/em\u003e is a fresh and mature look back on a life full of incident, from his beginnings as a sickly child of immigrant Irish parents who grew up in post-war London, to his present status as a vibrant, alternative national hero.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Arotahi Agency","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46997900427500,"sku":"9781471137211","price":27.99,"currency_code":"NZD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0705\/7784\/8556\/files\/21595423482711.jpg?v=1763197085"}],"url":"https:\/\/bookhero.pro\/collections\/john-lydon.oembed","provider":"Book Hero","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
