Pssyche - Killing Joke

Pssyche by Killing Joke live at Shephards Bush 2005

[@davidwilliams7220]

RIP Geordie, an absolute legend

[@StevenCormack-sk2vc]

Geordie the absolute calm in the middle of the apocalypse screaming from his guitar ,truly one of the coolest guitarist's who has ever lived

[@kobalt77]

This song is more relevant now in 2022 than it was when it came out in 1980. This band were so ahead of the game it is amazing to listen to all their albums now as we watch everything they told us was coming unfolding all around us. I definitely felt alone in the pack the past 3 years. God bless them, and all who appreciate them and get the "Joke".

[@yaylah7314]

don't worry and keep looking for the pack, it's full of lonely wolves around ;)

[@satyrosphilbrucato9140]

"Extreme metal" bands WISH they packed this kind of power.

[@taliertagreen7264]

RIP, Kevin Walker RIP, Paul Raven They were the most amazing musicians

[@p.pinchelette2909]

So powerful I started slam dancing in the living and broke the coffee table

[@pabloimireia]

🤣🤣🔥🍺

[@biegebythesea6775]

hope you cleaned it up

[@Oseanacoceanblue]

Rip in Geordie absolutely brilliant wall of noise with melodic overtones

[@satyrosphilbrucato9140]

As Martin Atkins observed, "Drumming for Killing Joke is like setting your arms on fire."

[@davidforshaw4998]

👍

[@patthewoodboy]

I have a feeling this nails it .. nearly 40 years later. :-)

[@permaveg]

Amazing energy and performance.

[@deanhumphries7878]

Killing joke fucking LEGENDS, Can't get much better than this live.

[@vortexeyes]

WoW so much Power!

[@fernandoalvaradogomez2473]

We miss you very much Paul Raven the raven king U.U ImI

[@williamsterben]

There will never be better greater than the energy of The Joke.

[@saraivatoledo1842]

Paul´s backing vocals in this shows U who the Boss is !

[@karolakus1]

best version!

[@markbarrowcliffe6485]

Still the best band I've ever seen live. And probably the second or third best I've ever heard on record.

[@patthewoodboy]

agree

[@samuelxavier2473]

Definitely. Amazing live band, damn good on record.

[@neilangus1363]

I remember 1980 when i first had thus b side to wardance. Never left me now im 58 and counting.

[@fernandoalvaradogomez2473]

Paul Raven is master ImI. Great Bass !!

[@AlanProc]

Great? How come he never plays the octave jump on this song then?

[@JOHNSNAPO]

Simply amazing !!!!!!!!

[@georgeswanson9483]

Oh, Raven. I love you so. Miss you.

[@65BigNorm]

This gig was the best of all the times I've seen them. Friday at the Brixton O2 Academy was pretty awesome though.

[@realitywinner7582]

wow some performance ! The Light of Heaven to Geordie. God Bless him -from Ireland .

[@Slaprougefun]

Ben is a fantastic drummer, but no one can fill Big Paul's shoes but Big Paul!

[@kramer6564]

You ready Benny boy....give it to em..

[@deanhumphries7878]

Total LEGENDS.

[@coltsuperocean10]

......thats a fuckin brilliant intro " Are ready Benny Boy, give it to `em"

[@TheWolfsnack]

Benny sure looks like he is having a great time!

[@Dan-g3e]

Looks like he’s been popping a few “Bennie’s”

[@tabonejohann]

You're alone in the pack You're feeling like you wanna go home You're feeling life's finished, but you keep on going The reason is there You won't find it till you've been And gone because you're living a hoax! Someones got you sussed! Dull your brain, or seek inspiration You feel illusion, and then you finally say transfer Transorm a machine, to play with your head So you can stand back and watch, or take part and learn If you don't know the game, then you're still part of it Because out on the streets it's strange To see the show Knowing full well that you're on the range Dodge the bullets! or carry the gun, the choice is yours Look at the controller A Nazi with a social degree A middle-class hero Rapist with your eyes on me A priest of masturbation, a priest yeh to the nuns you fuck You'd wipe out spastics if you had the chance, But Jesus wouldn't like it, no

[@dcowlam8483]

He's still got it

[@ivorytower99]

Yea, but back in the early 2000s, not the case. I'm glad they've gotten their shit together, for at least the past 5-6 years.

[@thevelointhevale1132]

Demolition Disco we used to call back in the day ...

[@robbywaters2034]

Been playing this tune since it was released back in the 80's - a lot slower then but still infectious: You're alone in the pack, you're feeling like you wanna go home You're feeling life's finished but you keep on going The reason is there but you won't find it till you've been and gone Because you're living a hoax, someone's got you sussed, oh Dull your brain or seek inspiration You fearin' an illusion and then you're findin' a transfer Drugs for the machine to play with your head So you can stand back and watch or take part and learn Look at the controller, a Nazi with a social degree A middle-class hero, a rapist with your eyes on me You feast on masturbation, a priest cheers to the nuns you fuck You'd wipe out spastics if you had the chance but Jesus wouldn't like it - Arrrgh! Enjoy

[@zellah]

RIP, Geordie. 🖤

[@porridgem]

favourite killing joke tune not seem them live for at least 20 years but so many quality memories

[@princeofcupspoc9073]

When Killing Joke plays it's not a concert, it's a magical ritual. In more ways that you know.

[@lebheidenstrm5392]

Boss music, quality control set to maximum.

[@robertedwards4102]

Brilliant trk

[@stevewilson9479]

what a great song..i think it was b side of 'wardance`? i bought on vinyl when i was 15!

[@neets1437]

Phenomenal!

[@landanengland7169]

Love this mental shit. Where did all the proper music go?

[@meondrone7224]

Anyone here in 2024 remembering their youth?

[@simonartley1645]

Ah indeed yes. They should be on centre stage at Glastonbury..F off Shania Twain

[@andybooth9924]

I am and loving the memories big time,my mind is still in this wonderful era 😁

[@adylevene4318]

Saw them first in 1981 and they were something else, those first 2 albums are their finest hour.

[@saraivatoledo1842]

hahaha, that kid´s face at 01:36 - definitely " or take parT AND LEAaaaaRN !!!!!! "

[@paulcavanagh1294]

Awesome!!!

[@xavierlagore5569]

"BUT JESUS WOULDN'T LIKE IT!" Good Lord above, this show kills it. I know, the original line-up and all, but Youth plays so sloppily. Raven IS king, indeed.

[@misterbonzoid5623]

Saw them in London in the early 80s. The crowd, who had endured Lilliput and Pink Military, was transformed from posing to pogoing.

[@jockhart]

way ahead of their time these guys.

[@davescholefield3574]

Jaz Coleman is a fucking legend.

[@dominickdepaolo6668]

Rippin’ it up

[@richard9444]

The raven king

[@georgeswanson9483]

I miss raven. I do.

[@freddiefries]

Great performance, congratulations Killing Joke and Jaz 😊👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

[@knobber666]

Excellent - thanks

[@ivorytower99]

A great opener.

[@mattheweckman8394]

All the old Material is insane Live.

[@pabloimireia]

Coolest guitar hero ever..😅😎🔥

[@theeggqueen]

Damn, that room has an energy to it!

[@conmanxxxxx]

Pure energy jaz u star

[@dischargesummary8794]

Merry Christmas 🎄🎅🎉

[@MB-es5vj]

Excellent

[@astorgaluthier]

Ben Calvert of Vex Red on drums. Good values from ñu metal era. This line up of KJ should continue to this day. Impressive show.

[@65BigNorm]

Probably would have done if Paul Raven (base) hadn't died 2 years later and Youth and Ferguson rejoined the band having all met up at his funeral. Since then we've had the very original line up again.

[@adriver4471]

Awesome 👏

[@Fo3rest]

saw these at rock city 2015 october first time went to see them in the 80's but jazz fell off stage so never got to see them until 2015 well worth the wait :)

[@Johnniehaha]

Geordie is a fucking genius

[@davidforshaw4998]

👍 Alchemicly Shamanic! 🎵=🗝️

[@taliertagreen7264]

Great band!!!

[@yaylah7314]

Geordie, sexiest guitarist ever

[@user-InvitationtoLove]

Wow🌪️

[@annafa6255]

I ❤❤u😊

[@zen_light]

It's Super High Energy Stuff.

[@fmv2230]

Yaaaaaassssss

[@KillingJoke1st]

Knowing Jaz' spirit and open mind vis a vis the gatherers, I'm pretty sure they would send you tabs if you were asking them to.

[@xn0153x]

Gods.

[@jackbach8968]

Ça tue grave ,trop bien

[@nurgeloid]

Feckin awesome! Gets no better than this.

[@Oseanacoceanblue]

Play this this instead of cursing your fellow human beings about social distancing and the new fucking normal Fuck I love killing joke No more concerts atm. Think about that and the power of a good band 👍😊

[@Blizzardfanboy]

The only thing I hate about Killing Joke is that it's damn near impossible to find any decent tabs for their utterly epic music.

[@KJgtabs]

check Killing Joke Guitar Tabs on FB, you should find around 100 guitar tabs, some of them should make you happy... Give it a try :!

[@saraivatoledo1842]

Hmmm , that´s like tabs for PIL´s Levene period, these dudes like Geordie and Levene didn´t follow any rules , one song might sound like this one , night, some other day it might as well be a tango dub mix . Tabs are for Metallica and predictable dumbass bands like that .

[@theeggqueen]

songsterr has a few songs

[@reneharde3459]

Geordie and Raven - RIP

[@dougmain4739]

they were punk techno metal dance hardcore grunge before they were a thing and still rock like a bastard

[@jackbach8968]

Coleman, c'est fou, on devrait tous être fou comme lui 😜🤪

[@NullStaticVoid]

RIP Geordie

[@Oseanacoceanblue]

Rip Paul

[@KnownSurvivors]

Fuck yeah

[@imagebob]

[@lowerclassbrats77]

[@kadirderlerbana6593]

Şöyle bir konser istiyorum ☠🤘

[@Bb-ct3bk]

Pozdrawiam Mateusza S z Krakowa

[@johnparkinson471]

look at his face he f#@$ kin means it

[@YouKnowWhereYouWentWrong]

But why Jaz letting his guitarist do the heavy lifting on all the vocals?

[@hmpz36911]

He sounds oddly similar to Lee Ving here...

[@MajOwnzzxx]

Love the lyric 'Dodge the bullet or carry the gun, the choice is yours! - I did both when serving - Always a mind fuck when playing this brilliant tune.

[@adrianaserban8879]

Monarchy satan my master

[@justine.3576]

Lol British people... And really it stopped the video when I opened this comment window?

[@timwalker2778]

Saw them in the mid 80's and loved them. The singer looks kinda ridiculous still doing the same schtick 30 years on.

[@MontyCantsin5]

What the hell do you want Jaz Coleman to do?
