To tour Album in 1986, Lydon recruited former Magazine and Siouxsie and the Banshees guitarist John McGeoch , world music multi-instrumentalist (and former Damned guitarist) Lu Edmunds , bassist Allan Dias, and former the Pop Group and the Slits drummer Bruce Smith . (Dias had previously played with David Lloyd and Andrew Edge in Uropa Lula ). As the years went on, PiL’s line-up grew steadier as the sound of the albums drifted toward dance culture and drum-oriented pop music. Edmunds left due to tinnitus in 1988, and Smith left in 1990. McGeoch and Dias were members of PiL from 1986 until 1992, making them the group’s longest-running members besides Lydon.
