@@jmorrow51503 Which one? Singles Collection? Unperverted Pantomime? I've yet to see an official compilation album that wasn't a bootleg with rarities and B-sides such as Mass, Hallucinations of a Cynic, or the Aerotearo mix of Mathematics of Chaos.
@@apothos666 ok well you got that right lol. Someday the good stuff might come to light to the rest.... i.e., rest of "Ha!", unreleased version of "...Cull", the unreleased tracks from many albums, etc.
Somehow i knew instantly this was from Democracy. Solid release just not their best. Medicine Wheel, Aeon, Pilgrimage Savage Freedom, Absent Friends best tracks IMHO.
Don't you hate it when the songs that aren't included on the record are at least as good as...and you have to hunt them down...well, anyway, let us be grateful that we have an opportunity to hear the songs that aren't included on the record.
My favorite song from Democracy. And it's not even on the record! This should have replaced something like Lanterns or Pilgrimage. Edit: I love Lanterns now. Should have replaced Pilgrimage or Intellect though.
I remember this CD Single being a precursor to the albums release and thinking the album was going to be fantastic after hearing Mass and then being somewhat disappointed.
Hope someday they re-release the Democracy album with this as a bonus track
The odds are stacked against me
Where do I turn for help?
How do I banish worry?
Maintain my mental health
No star on my horizon
What faith will resurrect
Which holy book for guidance?
Which code to emulate?
He owns a block of land
He's dreaming of eternity
Shes owns a ring of gold
She's dreaming of security
Mass [4x]
I saw a frightened people
Enter the chapel door
Repeating meaningless words
Speechless I stood in awe
Church of eternal tears
Church of eternal fear
I heard the laughter of Christ
White skin and ice blue eyes
He owns a block of land
He's dreaming of eternity
Shes owns a ring of gold
She's dreaming of security
Mass [6x]
The odds are stacked against me
I turn to you for help
I can control my worry
There is no place called hell
A star on my horizon
A faith to resonate
My heart shall be my guidance
No code to emulate
He owns a block of land
He's dreaming of eternity
Shes owns a ring of gold
She's dreaming of security
Mass [10x]
Cheers
one of their best imho: this one, hollywood babylon, european superstate, THE GREAT CULL :D
KJ should make a compilation album of all of their B-sides.
Pretty much did mate

they really should edit an album including all those gorgeous b-sides !

KJ are infamous for putting out B-sides that are epic.
This goes from beauty to terror almost simultaneously....there's genius in this song!
Slaprougefun ...that's what Killing Joke do so well...
This and Four stations of the sun could have been easily on the Democracy album.
B-sides mate
wow that's one hell of a song...I'm ripping the audio from youtube for all rare KJ stuff, just to save these in case....
Shoulda been on the album.Belting song
my favorite KJ songs: Holllywood Babylon, The Great Cull, Mass
This B-side was better than anything on the album!
What a tune!!!!!! I just blew the doors of the gaff!!!!!
