Post-punkers set to tour and record a new studio album...
Killing Joke in their original form (Jaz Coleman, Geordie Walker, Paul Ferguson and Martin 'Youth' Glover) are set to gig together after reuniting for a new tour and album. The post-punk rockers are to release a new album this summer, and are set to play all their classics on a worldwide tour. In two days residencies four piece will play their first two albums on the first night, following up with 1994's Pandemonium and their singles collection on the second.
Killing Joke influenced many later bands, such as Nirvana, Ministry, Nine Inch Nails, Napalm Death, Godflesh, Big Black, Prong, Metallica, Jane's Addiction, Soundgarden, Foo Fighters, Faith No More and Korn, all of whom have at some point cited some debt of gratitude to 'The Joke'.
