When we went to see them on their "Greatest Hits" tour (that's not what it was really called, but I don't know what to call it), my wife - who was a fan of the music, but didn't know anything about the band - turned to me after a couple of songs and said "Damn, the singer looks insane!" To which I replied: "Well... let's just say you're not really wrong."

Always end up comng back to Killing Joke and falling in love all over again. What's mental is that their songs have been proven to be very prescient especially in recent years which gives their entire back catalogue a new lease of life. Probably dismissed as conspiracy theorists like many were in the 80s, 90s and 00s but proven right in the end. They're one of the most under-rated bands of all time.

I first heard Killing Joke on Headbanger's Ball in 1994 when they were promoting Pandemonium; I could not believe how complex and heavy "Millennium" was, and I was instantly a fan. Then when "Democracy" came out I was like "oh... I am not sure I like this as much" and sort of forgot about the band. Then like ten years later I was trying to figure out what to download with my free tracks from EMUSIC or whatever stupid-ass digital download service came free with my .MP3 player, and this album was one of the only options by anyone I had ever heard of, and gave it a shot. And I absolutely could not believe that if anything they were EVEN BETTER THAN BEFORE and I immediately lamented not keeping track of their fantastic music. Bought just about their whole catalogue before the idea of buying music became outdated. Definitely hoping to see them in concert someday.

In the video, the magician's alter has the traditional chalice, sword, book, disk, and wand (bone) or Hermetic Magick. This is not some random stage dressing to "look cool."

Ripped my heart out to later spy some kid wearing it around town, all cut up and stitched onto the back of his jacket. I'd see KJ again in S.F. & D.C., but I still miss that tee.

He's the only guy with all the exaggerated actions, the walking, the histrionic begging to the skies during chopping organs while singing "I'm not a murder yet!" looks like a penitent naive boy. In light of all this his face paint makes him reminiscent of a clown toned down just right.

Hmm, okay, to each their own, but, personally, I think they've gotten better and better over the years. Mr. Coleman and the rest of the band feel as though they have too, according to interviews. Don't get me wrong, I *love* their old stuff, "The Wait", "Requiem", "Complications", "The Fall of Because", etc...but their later stuff is unreal...I guess it comes down to personal preference, but "Big Buzz", "Hosannas", "Euphoria", "Pole Shift", "Fema Camp", "In Cythera", "On All Hallows Eve", "Penny Drops", stands up to anything they've ever done in the past. I agree with you that they're not only still a powerhouse band, but to be going so strong - and in my opinion, getting stronger after so many years, is pretty amazing.

Incredibly influential on the whole Seattle / Northwestern / Indie / Grunge scene esp. SOUNDGARDEN and NIRVANA. One of these days I'll collate all the quotes & sources I have on the above; it's rather astonishing. Kurt Cobain (KC:33) and Chris Cornell (CC:33) were both HUGE Killing Joke nuts (as was I...) Unfortunately, the longer I listen, the more obvious the red & black satanic imagery stands out, (& irks...), as do some of the dodgy lyrics (Wilful Days, Exorcism...). Even in The Raven King: _"Let flags of red and black unfurl..."_ - YEAH, NAH, BRO ;) Shame, really; Jaz said he's embarassed by some of the things he said when he was young, and has turned his back on his Rosicrutian history / membership (?)...we'll have to wait and see I guess. Wanking on about Morgellons (Auckland, 2015) doesn't say five eighth's of fuck all, other than he's either a bullshit artist or needs to brush up on the effects of STATIC ELECTRICITY...FFS (numpty). KJ's close ties to Paul McCartney, Pink Floyd, Led Zeppelin (amongst others) would seem to belie the 'grassroots dole-bludging punk' narrative, too. Youth got into fine 666 & devil's horns flipping form when interviewed with McCarthy for The Fireman (doens't sound like a reference to SATAN at all...) Then there's: Jaz's knighthood in France Big Paul's Rothschild clients Jaz's stogie-chewing big-noting bullshit about being treated like royalty from the moment he hits Heathrow Youth: Grand Druid Jaz: Rosicrutian Geordie: Gemetria Big Paul: obviously some occult background (the apocryphal KJ-band member summoning fire ritual) PS: Whaddaya think Youff's SUN VISOR signifies...and correct me if I'm wrong, but Martin "Youth" G-Lover - er...dodgy?

@@soundgardener4940 Yeah, but does he diddle children and cover for bishops, hoard gold like while millions starve, and promote tearing down walls and gun control while living in a walled city (Vatican) under the protection of an arsenal of guns and arms? Asking for a friend.

This song is so much heavier than any modern Death Metal or deathcore or whatnot. Jaz Sounds so eerie in this. Great work! 🖤
