  • The Eighties Song & Mixes
    3
    By Jammin' Jimmy
    First I'm not a real big fan of Killing Joke, but they do have a couple of good songs I like. I see not all the albums are in here. To bad. I would purchase all the mixes of the eighties on a E.P. that came out in the eighties. Here you only have the one mix. Also, where is (can't remember the Album name) the song is called "Sanity". You know there are so many out of print E.P's out there that people have forgotten or don't know that it ever came out. Killing Joke isn't the only one out there where there are E.P's that where made. Other bands out there like New Order had E.p's too. Or a Band Called The Bridge. I don't see there E.P.

    Chessboards and Adorations are mislabelled. And where is Brighter Than a Thousand Suns on iTunes?!? Adorations is one of the most powerful rock tunes of the mid 80s -- and still stands up with conviction.
  • Killing Joke: The precursors to Goth

    By Green Meanie
    In the early 80s, as the third wave of British punk was making its way stateside, Killing Joke emerged as powerful player in the movement. As the punk zenith burned brightly Killing Joke started to tour quite seriously throughout the states. I had the pleasure of seeing them live back in 82 and was impressed by the powerful guitar and drums; the melody being more tribal and darker then anything I had heard previously. It is clear, that their discography indicates a an evolution in their sound and the use of more samples and further experimentation (novel for the time). I highly recommend their earlier songs like Tabazan, Requiem, and Darkness Before Dawn. Killing Joke paved the way for bands such as Sisters of Mercy and later Marilyn Manson. True originals!
