Killing Joke ARE all over the place. That is their forté. Their latest release sounds nothing like Absolute Dissent but it is still unmistakably Killing Joke and as good as that album.

Youth (bass player) is a renowned producer and has made albums with Paul McCartney (fireman), produced Crowded House and The Orb whilst Jaz (vocalist) has worked with orchestras and Operas (he also was born around the corner from me useless info!). Geordie Walker (guitar) has played in some of the best Industrial Metal bands that few have heard of! Damage Manual and Murder. Inc.

As a complete body of work that spans over 30 years, Killing Joke can pretty much play whatever they want and get results. Awesome, awesome band.
