On 19 September 1987, during a typically rambling and insane lecture, Jaz Coleman warned his listeners of the impending awakening of the Elder Gods and the terrible apocalypse that is to follow. Mankind's sole means of countering a planetary invasion is through contact with the forgotten ones, gods that "dwell in the individual and irrational unconscious, (...) are the gods of survival, they are pre-rational, they are blind and immensely powerful, (...) their force manifested in man as hunger, the sex urge, the 'fight or flight' adrenaline reaction and the tribal cohesion factor". Killing Joke is therefore, of course, conceptually an attempt at summoning the forgotten ones to consciousness, releasing and consequently reabsorbing their force through comprehension.

This new album, the first in nearly 30 years with the original line-up, completely lives up to its promises. Or not. Depends on what you were looking for. This certainly doesn't prevent it to be full of great songs, reminiscent of many eras of the band's history. But make no mistake: it's not a trek along Nostalgia Lane. Killing joke is as always terribly relevant, actual and modern (or, dare I say it, post-modern). Plus, these new songs kick ass live! Darkside Momo's picks | More picks ›› |
