DIGGING UP GRAVES: Jaz Coleman of Killing Joke on Politics, and Hating Arena Shows

In a new series here at Ghost Cult, we are resurfacing some interviews that never ran on the site or our podcasts because they honestly didn't have a home before now. When we interviewed music legend Jaz Coleman of Killing Joke, he was in a fine state. Ever chatty on a ton of topics, he was preparing to go speak in front of the United Nations right after our interview, and he shared his thoughts about many topics such as their arena tour with Tool, politics, composing, Paul Raven (RIP), reuniting the band, Classical Music composing music, and more. Interview and live photos by Ghost Cult Keefy ( ghostcultkeefy). Video editing by Omar Cordy of OJC Photography ( / ojcpics​​​​ . Theme music by Salted Wounds ( saltedwoundsnyc).

[@GhostCultMag]

Thanks for listening ans the support!

[@saraivatoledo1842]

Always !

[@lorrainesherwin3147]

I love his laugh and his face..aswel as his wisdom

[@demo3456]

Man when he said do something you love not hate..That hit me hard. I'm so brainwashed into believing this world is about money and status. I promise I will break free.

[@GhostCultMag]

He dropped a lot of wisdom in this interview!

[@KyOte13]

We all NEED to break free

[@TheChadTI]

15:26 I will. The C-I-A created the hippies and even the word (as well as their opposition) Another country took the lead on uk punk in 76🤙

[@GhostCultMag]

Lol! US Punk over UK punk everday I'm afraid on the strength of The Ramones and CBGB bands alone!

[@TheChadTI]

@@GhostCultMag The Ramones were so great man, wish they had the interest in them now back when they were alive.

[@demo3456]

ding ding its called culture creation. They have drugged out every generation since the hippies. Killing Joke means like a real one to me but you really never know.

[@demo3456]

Do some research on the Tavis stock institute as well they created so many movements. Punk the electric dance rave scene and maybe even had a hand in KJ but I dont think jaz went along with it

[@fellpisces]

thank you

[@GhostCultMag]

You're welcome

[@Unfunny_Username_389]

Brilliant.

[@GhostCultMag]

Right? I know a lot of people found this interview this week because Geordie died, we appreciate people for still digging this one!

[@andystubbins552]

Jaz 👍

[@robertmaune8557]

He's full on WEF. Sad.

[@GhostCultMag]

You had to be there in the room with him. He was wound up like a top!

[@robertmaune8557]

@@GhostCultMag , don't get me wrong, this is the best Jaz Coleman interview I have yet come across, (and I've been a Killing Joke fan since 1980), but he's gone full on Aleister Crowley. He's lost. IMO Geordie was the genius of KJ, and he is irreplaceable.

[@GhostCultMag]

That is very kind of you, Robert!
