RIP Geordie walker .
And yes 🙌 thankyou for your music to help us all process the madness ..
Catharsis is the word !! Thankyou for all the years since I was 16
Killing Joke's influence is pretty damn impressive. Post-Punk, New Wave, Goth, Industrial, Metal, Alternative, Grunge, etc.
They were one of those bands that really crossed boundaries and brought different people together.
Ever think about putting a mic on the interviewer so we can actually hear what he's asking?
Jesus christ I've never agreed with a comment more.. Well, maybe I have, but you get it
So fucking annoying! I love killing joke but mike up the interviewer !
right? Huge miss
Somebody in sound editing or post-production obviously slacked off.
I think this raw footage? Ment to have clips pulled?
Have to say, saw these guys back in 2014, best gig i've ever been to. My ears were ringing for at least a week afterwards, and i don't think any live set from another band will out do that one. It was otherworldly. When the interviewer mentions about the tribal elements of rhythm within Killing Joke, this is so true. Listening to their records is one thing, but seeing them play live and experiencing the sound they make, it's absolutely fucking insane -- there just isn't anyone else like them. I remember almost being in a trance like state (whilst completely sober) just taking it all in as they played. Personally, this band with it's music and lyrics, will be relevant for many many many years to come.
These guys are pure. No sell outs.
I can count the number of bands who have literally changed my life on one hand and have several fingers left over. They're one. There's just no one else who does what they do...
Me too, who else changed your life? Cheers mate
I can understand Killing Joke aren’t everyone’s cup of tea but.....they are an amazing band!
It still amazes me how few people know of them. They've influenced so many bands and no one knows who they are.
I turn the sound up so I can hear what's being said, but the only thing that's really audible is when they roar with laughter. That's deafening.
As it should
My friend introduced me to killing joke in the mid 80s - around the time of the Night Time album - I had heard the Love Like Blood single which I loved - We went to see the band play live at the Astoria near Tottenham Court Road Station ( Unfortunately got demolished for Crossrail ) - What I experienced was extraordinary - They had people blowing fire on stage - Jaz was painted like a demon and had the audience in his hands - It felt like a tribal dance - A communion of people in a war dance - A requiem for the follow the leader - I took a breather from the moshing on the dance floor and went up on the balcony to view the pandemonium from a different perspective - The played Pssyche - I looked down and everybody in audience was in a frenzied dance and thought oh my god this is unbelievable - One of the best gigs I've been to... Love that band.
Love these guys. They are living Gods.
All musicians are people. Calling them gods disrespects the human element and achievements. Gods have no concept of music. They are nothing like us. Music is a human thing
@@justinparkerthewildwolf6394 Get a life.
Killing Joke is exactly what it seemed to be at the very beginning and still is. I'm on board and always have been.
I think over the years I am just glad that I got into Killing Joke they got me through some dark times, love there energy at there live concerts.
I'm so glad Paul is back (has been for 10+ years now bit STILL glad) It seemed like it was haunting him.
Joke was/is total catharsis. I remember some of the early subteranea gigs in London where sometimes you'ld be worried turning up as security staff seemed to have an agenda in deliberately goding fans, setting the fans against one another in an apparent effort to ignite violence in order to discredit the band and fans alike. Their agenda seemingly was to suppress any perception/paranoid delusion 'they' may have had, of any rebellion in the ranks. What 'they' refused to accept was that none of us had signed up for or were going to sign up to any part of their Thatcherite greed and prejudism. We soon wised up to their agendas. There is a hypnotic catharsis to Joke that Tories appeared to hate, the fans were/are just humble humanists/environmentalists and we could never understand the unwanted attention. A lot of us were creative, interested in anthropology and involved with studying early forms of ethical issues and approaches in graphic art and media . .we were certainly more integral and intuitive than the egoist authorities that chose to subjugate us back then. Interestingly enough, the system only seems to be wising up now to what we all knew donkies years ago, I guess that's progress at least. The question is, what will they demonize next? A lot of the old fans are loving parents and grand parents now.
Jaz is right there. At 15 in 1979 , I never considered politics until Radio Victory In Portsmouth- with it’s royal naval Dockyards, had a thing about Nuclear Attack in which the guy said “ a piece of paper 25 miles away from Portsmouth would be ignited “ ! Living across the sea/ estuary usually made Portsmouth and The South New Forest unconnected but when measured direct at 22 miles , I suddenly became Very Terrified or Anxious and Anti Nuclear everything immediately. - and a CND supporter 🏴😎love from wessexshire
Probably the only band who have not sold out. I'm 62 years old now. First saw the band live in 1981. Pylon is probably my favourite album. They called out the Convid madness and everything what's happening way before it happened. Legends. RIP Geordie. He will be hard to replace if the band continues.
Always been one of my favourite bands. Cheers! Killing joke. 👍
“ Things need to be said that aren’t “ . Said from the beginning...so far ahead of their time. First time I saw them was ‘80... simply jaw dropped am still am today !
Greatest band on the planet
As a Christian Soldier, I thank you for the greatest hits that inspire me to work out always. Sanity and Adorations are amazing classics. I pray for you gentlemen and I want you to know I do care and appreciate you all!
@GR8_S8N As a Christian Soldier I need not your permission to listen to one of the greatest bands. Furthermore, religion is BS and the Pope and Pat Robertson need to be horsewhipped. I don't trust in religion or any political party for my hope. If you knew who you're telling this to, you'd know I'm thee most anti herd person there is. This BAND could rely on me in a fight to have their back, GET IT.
I have not met them and may never have that honor, but I consider them friends. On the other hand, someone who gets in my face and tells me to find another band to listen to with find their tendons wrapped around their raisin sized nuts as I make them into a Mexican pinata to be beaten! Now go run along before you really piss me off.
MERRY CHRISTMAS Killing Joke and God bless you !!!
Do you consider this band as living without money and materialism as the true Christians? The Vatican is obviously a Satanic infiltration.
RIP Gordie
Rip geordie walker
met kj when they just finished whats this for...!- got to go in studio to hear final mix- i also watched the lp being cut
I love that they are Chic heads. Amazing.
Love this band. Love these people.
RIP Geordie...
🥺
Great band.
Shame the interviewer didnt have a decent mic setup.
Nice to hear a few rare words from Geordie too.
I absolutely love killing Joke. Most intelligent band! Truely grateful for all their work, including the Russian classical
Pink Floyd Led Zeppelin Bowie Killing Joke Kate Bush my favourites
Jaz covering his mouth is like "Don't fucking say it..."
Love these guys. Not political. “They’re all wrong”. No pretension!!
they're radical leftist mate. Havent you read the lyrics? Jazz has said he is nearly 100% a communist, he just doesnt call himself one because of what the soviets did to religious folk
@@ResidentEyebrowAppreciator They're pretty apolitical. They satirize the hammer and sickle on one shirt, and they're anti-war. They're not sleazy for "wanting to make a buck." It's what people do this day and age. Jaz has his own mindset, but it's definitely influenced by a lot of people. "Radical left?" Left, sure, but most certainly not radical. Ridiculous when people are labelled communist for not liking genocides or ethnic cleansing, things like that. What the fuck's wrong with you, buddy? Not to mention, show us where he labels himself communist, or you can fuck right off.
@@nathanlh81 The politics is confused but the music is hardcore as fuck.
@sc >nazi Germany was Socialist
Glad I saw them in 1985 in Glasgow
Loved Killing Joke, I lived through those dark times in the 80's, a lot of violence and angry people. The music is even more relevant today, there is a lot more to get angry about but people today don't. The establishment has done a job on them and as we know politically in this Country 'They are all Wrong'
I heard are you receiving on John peel hooked forever
What a cool band! I tried to see them twice but both times they ended up not playing for one reason or another. Too bad.🤔
get some microphones
Love them and Love them to tour Asia😉
You get to sit down with the greatest living band of all time (well 3 out of the 5 {Youth, Paul}) and we can't hear the questions. WTF!
It sounds like the interviewer is sat 100 meters away. Just in case! 😆
Stiil a funny vibe between Jaz and Paul
Yes, you're right. Anyone unfamiliar with the band would guess that Paul is the focus, driving force, and main spokesperson for KJ on the basis of this. There's obviously a strong mutual respect and acknowledgement of each other's influence. Paul's return seems to have rebalanced the dynamics of KJ, and that's probably a good thing.
Suspect Paul is the handy guy in a crisis ,,
He is the glue musically and psychologically
@@Trotskyxx you can always rely on a drummer
Cool hoodie Jaz has on. Is this a KJ hoodie?
Killing Joke is a unic band. Geordie is dead 😢💔 i don't know if them will make another album. By Geordie 🎸
Good interview apart from not being able to hear the interviewer very well.
"rock magazine" know not of microphones.
I turned on the predicitve subtitles as the sound quality is bad. killing Joke becomes King Joe. and Eighties becomes AC
I have to disagree with Jaz here. Lots of people produce themselves nowadays with the advent of technology.
I guess he meant to imply that we don't see it very often anymore. Or at least many bands doing it anymore.
Fantastic musician and songwriter but he doesn't have a fucking clue. Talks a load of shit in interviews, doesn't really have his finger on the pulse anymore. Self production is the norm for rock and punk bands, even a lot of pop artists.
RIP KGW
You can sort of see by Geordies bloated appearance that the booze had started to get the better of him at this point.
Concerned citizens.
Has anyone noticed that Jaz looks like Alice Cooper.
southerner4566 Snape comes to mind too
Ronnie O'Sullivan should play Jaz in a movie about KJ :)
He does a bit doesn't he.
Yes I thought the same 😊
Fucks sake Jaz, no History of revolution? What was the English Civil War if not a revolution ...
A melee
@@carloscasillero4422 Clearly you NOTHING about the ECW then! Go and look up the Reformation PABLO!
Cliff Richard is the best
KJINM RIP one member,
I've always seen them as anarchists.
Jj Burnell taught them how
fuck off
What’s this about guys ? Do u know eachother or What shame is there being associated with The Stranglers ?
Is this the true Christianity? Living as paupers for their beliefs?
this interview is an example of the BS
If God existed, ........ ..
