Killing Joke Tickets Oct 15 2010 7:00 pm iCal

Killing Joke’s reputation is forged in fire, brimstone and magic. The band have long been one of rock’s most iconic & influential outfits.

Now, 30 years since first bonding in blood, the original line-up of Jaz Coleman (vocals), Geordie (guitar), Youth (bass) and Paul Ferguson (drums) are set to start work on their 13th studio album – the first fruits of a new worldwide deal with the Spinefarm Records label.

Covered by Metallica, Foo Fighters and more, Killing Joke’s apocalyptic vision continues to draw praise from such high-profile supporters as Jimmy Page and Billy Corgan, and the band’s considerable musical legacy can be heard in the works of Nirvana,Ministry, Nine Inch Nails and the like – artists whose rise to fame never saw them cutting ties with the underground/alternative scene.

Once described by Paul Ferguson as "the sound of the earth vomiting", Killing Joke are now poised to take their music of resistance to a whole new level, both in the studio and on the road.

As ever, the journey won’t be easily forgotten… whether those involved wish to do so or not!

Young Gods will be the main support for this event

See them at the HMV Picture House on October 15th.
