Adam and the Ants - Killer in the Home (OGWT81)

[@arcticgeneration]

Kevin Mooney's bass really gave this song a raw edge. Neat!

[@wirewehear7254]

Agreed. Mooneys bass is fabulous.

[@steveant]

I fucking love this and Ants Invasion.

[@muddy_mummy7774]

He didn’t realize how good he really is. Can’t wait for him to tour here again xxx Ant Warrior

[@annabelablue]

Man, that bass really sounds killer and makes the song…🎉❤

[@kaosimian]

Not seen this before, what an incredible performance. KOTWF was the first album i ever bought back in the day, some songs have aged better than others, but this is one of the gems for sure. Thanks for uploading.

[@mmmggg3]

One of my favourite album tracks 👍❤ ty

[@johnashton2816]

what a awesome performance

[@Indiecovers1985]

Kevin Mooney was a big part of the original sound of Adam and the ants such a shame he left.

[@robgolding8218]

Well, he didn't leave, he got sacked..

[@5red5red]

Wooo, that was amazing.

[@PurpleRecords1972]

First time I ever saw them…Classic clip 🎸

[@giankarlotorriani5163]

A fucking masterpiece "king of the wild frontier" his best album imo

[@michaelrice4894]

So great to hear an upbeat,different version o that song. Love it when my fav.artists change a song or two ,ever now& then. Adam,Marco& Co.4 ever!!!

[@theflammreport9634]

Thanks for posting this - I love this energetic live version!

[@paullavan3097]

I think I'd struggle to name an Ants song as great as this; perhaps Stand And Deliver; perhaps Jolly Roger; but no, I think this is it.

[@keef71]

one of my faves along with Feed Me To The Lions, although i think Marco would have to be facing his amp for that one live :-)

[@ladybirdsoup]

Thank You so much for your channels consistently Wonderful content.

[@jennifero7189]

Not sure if I like this faster version, or the slower from PC Revue. Both are FANTASTIC! Thanks for sharing!

[@theflammreport9634]

I think the faster version works well live, but in my opinion the absolute best rendition is the album version. Even Adam air-drums the missing drum tracks from the slow, album version, at around 2:09. There is a lot of silence in the album version.

[@aw4367]

Fantastic quality!!!!

[@alancooper3106]

Brilliant, just fckin Brilliant!

Killer In The Home …

[@owenwalton1104]

No dodgy backing track insight.

[@luisramirezclaver8022]

What do you mean exactly?

[@owenwalton1104]

@@luisramirezclaver8022 I mean, they went from clearly being able to play their songs live, to having to either mime on top of the pops or perform to a live audience using an awful backing track they had pre prepared earlier at the Royal variety show. I know that's how things were done back then, but its a real shame because they could play.

[@stiofandundealgan1280]

Another great tune, I love that band but Gary Tibbs is missing on bass, what a pity !

[@robgolding8218]

Tibbs isn't missing, he hadn't joined the band yet...

[@stiofandundealgan1280]

@@robgolding8218 Yes, Gary replaced Kevin but I prefer Gary and I miss him in the older videos

[@bloodsling]

way too fast,the pace of the album version is trance-like. Play this back at 0.75 speed is closer to how it should be,but the sound pixelates..unfortunately.

[@DaleHodgkins0n]

What do you mean "pixelates"? That's a term concerning digital imagery, isn't it? What's happening here is a band is playing live... and that often comes with a passion and rawness that due to the adrenaline ends up with a faster, edgier tempo... if you want to listen to the album version (which, I agree with you is hypnotically beautiful - then listen to the album version. If you want to watch a band live [even "live" on KZbin 40 years later] then get with that live groove, energy and excitement. The two things are different beasts... both great, neither one "better".
