Since their formation in 1979, Killing Joke have long been one of rock’s most iconic and influential bands with a string of revered recordings to their name.
Covered by Metallica, Foo Fighters and others, Killing Joke’s apocalyptic vision continues to draw praise from such high-profile supporters as Jimmy Page, and the band’s considerable musical legacy can be heard in the works of Nirvana, Ministry and Nine Inch Nails.
Their 15th studio album, MMXII is arguably their best to date. The songs are great washes of sound, with unexpected moments of optimism: the soundtrack for these unstable times.
