Killing Joke Is Cathartically Chaotic On New EP Lord Of Chaos

16 March 2022 By jesse Leave a Comment

In a perfect world we’d be writing about the triumphant 16th studio album from the legendary Killing Joke instead of a new EP 7 years out from their last release of all new material, 2015’s Pylon. But it’s not a perfect world so what we get is two brand new Killing Joke songs along with two remixes to tide fans and the world over while that 16th full-length is being completed. And in a perfect world there’d be no need for Killing Joke’s apocalyptic aural symphonies anyhow so celebrate what we have and buckle up for Lord Of Chaos!

The Joy Thieves Assemble An Army Of Greats For Post-Punk Heist Of The Century On American Parasite

21 July 2021 By jesse Leave a Comment

We’ve said it before and we’ll say it again: The best kinds of albums are the ones you weren’t expecting. Sure, I’m aware that the Industrial juggernaut known as The Joy Thieves is out there making killer tunes but legitimately had no clue that not only was a proper full-length on the way but that it features the legendary vocalist (And frequent collaborator/Joy Thief) Chris Connelly on ALL 15 tracks. And let’s be honest here, who else is more suited to act as the maniacal ringleader over a veritable army of musicians who have collectively backed such diverse vocalists as David Bowie, Henry Rollins, Iggy Pop, Jaz Coleman, Al Jourgensen at one point in time?

Killing Joke is back. Again. Since the reformation of the original line up for 2010’s Absolute Dissent, Killing Joke has continued to impress, surprise, and grow stronger as a band which is a feat unto itself for any outfit together for almost 40 years. On Pylon, their sixteenth studio album, they complete the trilogy (With 2012’s MMXIII sandwiched in there) with perhaps their most masterfully executed album to date. [Read more…]
