Killing Joke - Rubicon

[@satyrosphilbrucato9140]

Paul Raven's magnificent driving bass propels this song into the realm of the sublime. The interplay between Raven's bass groove, Geordie's otherworldly guitar, Big Paul's relentless drumming, and Jaz's prophetic voice and keyboard textures made this lineup my favorite among the Joke's many manifestations.

The magic of our science shines brighter than a thousand suns... RIP K Walker

Geordie and the magic guitar. Unreal tone, the master.

[@Spiluch92]

Thank you for this admirable work, this sumptuousness that galvanises me and wakes me up more than 10 mornings a month. How sad to lose such a guitarist... These musical notes will no longer have the same taste during our mourning period... Thank you again for everything you gave us. RIP K Walker

Love this song only killing joke can create such mystical music Always rock my world with your music since early 80

[@tamer.elgamal]

I am new to Killing Joke, but this must be one of their best songs.

[@jaybird2148]

A great song, but not even close actually.

[@gr3y_eminence]

Personally I love this album and I am a long time fan; only in the last few years did I become really hooked though. It took me a long time to dig through their backcatalog which has wonderful variety. Personally I think all their major releases are worth a listen.

[@tamer.elgamal]

@@gr3y_eminence I totally understand. They really impress me.

[@tamer.elgamal]

@@jaybird2148 What an amazing band.

[@fredericfargeot4738]

"Love liké blood" is a masterpiece

[@erickovach3062]

Ohhh the guitar changes in this song.... Seriously stunning...

[@tabeccaletford408]

[@drewrosecrans9728]

[@danfango1333]

Still has power. And menace. Geordie is a master.

The age of miracles, assent of man in strident tones Realms of fantastic have been forged by folly speed and steel Out of the cones stream forth, creation is not yet complete New species come, old species fall to nature once again Now that I've found god on every side - and in every legion Revolution Points of no return Evolution We cross the Rubicon The shipyards blaze, vibrant arsenals wait their turn Idols of rational worlds to worship power, to worship strength Great crowds excited by riot, pleasure, work Insane crusades, destructive gesture of the freedom bringers And all the bells shall toll as holy banners fly And all will talk of freedom Revolution Points of no return Evolution We cross the Rubicon Let rage and hate of races run from Adam down The magic of our science shines brighter than a thousand suns Liberty in new dimensions ruthless and spectacular Obliteration shall be poetry of 'Golden Dawns' And as the people thrill, I stand and comprehend upon the threshold Revolution Points of no return Evolution We cross the Rubicon

"Insane crusades, destructive gesture of the freedom bringers" "And all the bells shall toll as holy banners fly And all will talk of freedom" This came out a few years before the Gulf War

[@DeeBellwether]

one of my favorite 20th Century anthems

[@berndhuebner3289]

Surely one of many master pieces ❤

[@drewrosecrans9728]

Synthesizers are just beyond awesome through out the whole track 🤘 it's my ultimate favorite track hand's down! Love KJ 🤘🤘🤘🤘

[@gender-e.Sometimes.]

Algunos de los grupos británicos de esta generación son inalcanzables. Me pregunto que tienen ustedes para gestar tanto talento.

[@WarrenCromartie2]

Such an underrated band. Great lyricists too.

[@anSealgair]

Crossing the Rubicon: going past the point of no return. Into uncharted territory, but things can't go back to how they were before. It has changed forever. Julius Caesar's army crossing the Rubicon river in Italy leading to the rise of the Roman Empire.

[@Emulous79]

Very insightful people. They know things that most would laugh at, but true. One of the originators is an architect. Very intelligent people. Informed, too.

[@SubGothius]

More to the point: when the thing that nobody expects, the thing that can't be done... is done, thereby changing everything.

[@2Times22]

Absolute new wave power..!!!!!!

[@drewrosecrans9728]

Takes me back to 1986 hell yes I was 19 year's old and my xgirlfriend turned me on to killing joke 🤘 I liked all ready back in 82 but my x made realize how are they were especially there political message!! KJ 4life!!!

[@drewrosecrans9728]

Geordie rule 🤘🤘🎸

[@jasonrichner2537]

This disc may not be as good as Night Time, but it's still criminally under-rated.

[@Contessa6363]

It surpasses Night Time. It is further evidence of the evolution of their creative genius!

[@kevandalzell7906]

Fantastic, fucking song!!!! Raven! I know Youth "hates" this album.... Classic, along with "Gods Own Medicine."

[@Emulous79]

Ruby Khan. That's an Anglo-Indian girl somewhere.

[@bozbontins]

Anthem For Belarus

[@laurentduvergne5031]

Euh... 🤔 C'est à dire ?

[@zeitfieldunite4488]

KJ the Waqt diversion was it real or a fake ? Offline intruder feedback

[@bozbontins]

New species come, old species fall to nature once again...Corona ha ha

[@Daniel_Delayne]

The kind of song you could listen to a thousand times and still not remember anything about it. The very definition of filler
