I’m 58. Not only have I not outgrown their music, I’ve been compelled to explore their prolific discography more now than ever. It’s a combination of my growing hunger for authenticity, these troubled times, and KJ’s decades of passionate, harmonic, beautiful noise. I thank them for providing the soundtrack for our dysfunctional humanity. Peace.
I thankfully share the same experience and view over KJ.
I'm having so much trouble getting my hands on some of their albums. Specifically Hosannas From the basement of Hell and MXXI. Do you know how I might get these without spending a fortune?
😊 hello Jon, I don't often visit here much but I really appreciate your thoughts on the band and film. We released try in 2013 but never has a band been more relevant than now. Honour the 🔥
I'm a 1963 vintage I guess as you are, I discovered Killing Joke thru a mad mate of mine here in NZ in 1980. I was busy listening to Electric Light Orchestra before. I was at that age where I started doing a few crazy things, going away with a bunch of guys to the other side of the country getting up to no good without parents knowing. Killing Joke and Public Image were the main diet.
Life changing. Now appreciated more than ever and I thank them very much for all the hard work and sacrifice that has given so many of us something special to grasp hold of, as it seems only some of us get it and I've never heard anything that comes close to the brilliance of the many facets of Killing Jokes sound. One or two more albums of new material is all I can wish for.
Yes, they had some really questionable conspiracy takes back in the day.. mostly singer... I still love them and the sentiment of their music. Coming out of retirement to make a protest album against bush illegal Iraq war killing minimum estimate of 1ook civilian casualties , by us troops plus some other warcrimes/ malfeasant fuckery. It all however, comes from a place of empathetic concern, anger, giving a voice to underprivileged- truth to power. Always respect for always punching up.
My favorite guitarist ever. Immense sound out of that ES-295.
R.I.P. old friend. Geordie Walker.
Fuck me. I hadn't even heard. The end of an era, man.
Oooh really 😢
Geordie was literally a one off. Maybe there might be a guitarist like him again but man that dude conjured something with that guitar that Ive never heard before or since
When Geordie told KJ he was the best for them, it's because he was.
This is probably the first documentary that I watched with such great interest!!! Amazing work, thanks to everyone involved in the making of this movie.
I loved Killing Joke before, but now after learning more about everything they did, especially Jaz thoughts, I love them even more and will probably perceive their music and lyrics in a different, deeper way.
I’m 22 and I can honestly say I’m proud to be a Killing Joke fan! Thank you for uploading this masterpiece of a documentary! Lift up your spirits!
Glad you liked the movie! Thanks for commenting.
Well welcome to the KJ world. I am 52 and have been listening to them for 40 years. They get heavier, darker and better with age and they were already freaking great. Go see them when they tour again. They are a sight to behold. Jaz is an absolute freak and I say that as a compliment.
Killing Joke are the sound of the end of the world before the second advent of the Lord Jesus Christ!
love to see young ppl into the joke. Great taste fratello.
As a 23 year old, surely your opinion is irrelevant 🤷♂
jk 🤗👍🤘💖
This film validates what Killing Joke fans have understood intuitively once initiated; that they are not a "rock band" but more like ceremonial leaders who use sound to help integrate both sides of ourselves. The darkness before the dawn we all must face to fully realize our own unique gifts.
Exactly, the great awakenings soundtrack.... explains why they escaped my attention until I was ready and able to hear their music as intended.
Amazing description.
loooooooool
For me, they are a way of life.
I’m 60 now. Loved KJ since I was a kid. This movie is enlightening. I confess however that even as a philosophy graduate and a lover of philosophy, Jaz’ intellectual pursuits are beyond my level of intelligence. Also, I’m absolutely gutted about Geordie’s untimely death. His style of play was truly unique. The word genius springs to mind. A word I never use loosely having read the works of Wittgenstein. RIP you great man.
So grateful for this documentary. The killing joke are one of the most important bands in this time of great changes. They remained obscure and known for the most part only to those initiated into their music by others who were initiated before them....they never achieved the commercial success or recognition lesser bands enjoy....but this is because they could not do their great work in the spotlight. Now that this work has been done....the world will know killing joke and their music will become, has become, tr soundtrack for the great changes and awakening to come
There's no definite article with this band. It's just Killing Joke!
hello. I can't articulate so I am crazy at the moment :D Nobody told me it would be like that. But then again everybody did. I'm still young enough to keep doing what I knew I must anyway and keep banging my drums. For a few years yet anyway. hopefully.
No such thing as "just killing joke" This is a band that inform, keep you in the loop and will go where no other band dares too go.
The most important band of my lifetime. See you in the smoke with Albert March 2023 ❤️🔥
@@Tabazan7 I was merely expressing that there is no 'The' in their moniker!
The most amazing bands and performers stay mainly underground. There's many many great bands who should be up there with the rest, and never got in the charts or 'made it', and I love them for it. They don't sell out often, and they're just fenomenal! Like Johnny Thunders, Suicide, Demics, Wipers, Butthole Surfers, Black Widow, Pink Fairies, Edgar Broughton Band, Gong, Daevid Allen, Rozz Williams, and many Krautrock bands like Can, Guru Guru, Frumpy, and lots of gothic from the '80s, pre punk, punk, post punk, garage bands from the '60s, and loads of others...
I am 48 years old and be a fan since 2002 . I love the documentary and say hello to Jaz Coleman and Killing 😊❤
What a testament this film is to one of the greatest rock bands in history. I remember, as a teenager in the 1980s, the sense of wondering in listening to Night Time, Whats This For, or their first album on headphones while walking around my home town, feeling alienated from everything around me and yet so connected to this powerful band. Years and years later, they are still the best band I have ever seen live, with a stunning discography spanning four and a half decade. No band can put you into a rapture the way they do with the likes of 'Wardance', 'Requiem', and 'Pssyche'. Thanks for uploading this wondrous tribute to the most vital band at a most troubled time for humanity. They were telling us about climate chaos, corrupt politicians, the horrible arms industry, and how we've lost touch with the nature around us way back in my youth in the 1980s. In my opinion, no band will ever touch Jaz Coleman and Killing Joke. It's amazing to think they have provided a primal, vital, transformative soundtrack to our lives for so long.
I´m 53 years old and love them more then i ever did. The early albums are decades ahead of their time. RIP Geordie
This is one of the deepest bands I’ve ever come across..
As a Fear Factory fan, the cover of Millenium on the album Transgression brought me to KJ in 2005, and then I discovered an incredible discography. I kept listening to everything they do and after viewing this doc I'll appreciate even more each song they've done. Killing joke is a monument !
Prong did the same to me. When Tommy introduced me to KJ with his Seeing Red cover, I was like they seem like an "okay" band. Kind of didn't have much interest. Then I started to look for any bands Raven was in and decided to give KJ another listen. 1 song here, 5 songs there, then 20, then 40, etc. Now anytime I sit down to listen to music its always KJ. It's like I cannot stop listening to whole blocks of KJ, and will not listen to anything else. The band is genius and can/has done it all.
@@biffbastion301 kool BRO
I'm 29, I used to listen Killing Joke and Joy Division when walking to school. This documentary is gold. Thanks a lot.
That is so cool. I was such a nerd.
LADS this is important. If you're watching this right now, you were meant to see this. Jaz aint messing about,
Watching this I did not expect to see myself in a still from a gig nearly 20 years ago :-)
A band that has endured and still is creating brilliant music. Their music translated in a live forum is something for me quite cathartic, which I believe KJ intended us to experience. I've seen them perform 9 times, and after the show I can never truly sleep. Strange dreams with themes never introduced to me before. Some purely beautiful, and some so horrific I'd wake up ghost white. Never has any band had such an effect on my subconscious, and I wouldn't take it back for anything.
Still love this band after all these years. This documentary was beyond fascinating, telling a story that seems to encapsulate all of the emotions. Came to this after watching recent live footage from the Royal Albert Hall. Truly original legends.
TRUTH!
An absolutely unique, powerful force of music and creativity. As soon as you hear his guitar, you know who it is that's playing.
We'll miss you, Geordie!
It is so fascinating to know that the sheer wave of energy that flows through the audience is not imagined. They are also one of the very few bands that get better with age.
@Peter Lancaster sniffing Poppers is not a good idea you will ruin your MDMA & Psylocybe trip....
I smelled one of Jaz Coleman's dirty socks once and not only were my chakras aligned but I won the 1989 Ouija board tournament. Praise Jah!

greetings from the phils!!!LOVE KILLING JOKE,NEW MODEL ARMY,MINISTRY,PRONG,DIE KRUPPS,,AXE GRINDER,SAWTHROAT,NAPALM DEATH,LAIBACH AND THE MIGHTY AMEBIX!!!
Thank you so much, what an AMAZING documentary! Lots and lots of LOVE to Killing Joke!
not even 45 mins into this incredible documentary... this is an ASTOUNDING work!!!
One of the best bands in the world.
I was there, Hammy ODEON, 30 years after buying their first LP, I ended up working for them and rigging their stage show.
RIP Geordie. 😢
I appreciate the massive amount of effort put into this documentary. Truly a genius insight.
I love Killing Joke - they're the best underdog metal/rock/punk band. They remind me of my friends from high-school - out to have fun and even maybe spread some truth on you in the process while being extremely talented - but they're such regular dudes. Always remaining open to their fans but still having a veil of mystery - Killing Joke is one of the most unique bands in rock.
And yea, when you have Page telling folks that your music was exciting - you're doing something right! lol.
Huge for us in 70s/80s. Local 'n' all. Notting hill; always thought they had the spirit of Hawkwind in their sound. The early stuff with analogue synths especially. Saw em not long back. Outstanding as usual. Not many better.
I am 48 years old now and I am proud to be a Killing Joke fan
I love this damn band.. my buddy Martin Atkins played drums for one of their phases I guess you would call it! 🙏 Thank you for this FANTASTIC documentary 👍 Geordie and Jazz, the most perfect alchemy marriage in music ever! Agreed 🎵 this is why we love K J.
What an incredibly special and important band.
Nothing but love for the joke.
I've been wanting to see this. Thanks so much for making it available. Incredibly well made documentary. It blows me away how good Killing Joke are to this very day (check out the new EP)
One of the best bands ever in all of music. Punk and post punk post post this band was the power of nature and cerebral muscle meets the blood of saints in mystified press and sounds of celestial beings making war. RIP Geordie Walker!!! You are an asteroid!!!
I've been a fan since the very early 80s, but rarely delved beyond the music itself. In those early years, it was a solitary pursuit; like I was the only one who appreciated their dark majesty.
Same here. My friends didn't get it because it wasn't punk enough to them. It was more complicated.
@@tzt1182 Exactly! I had a friend who walked about in a khaki jacket and only liked Crass and Conflict. He turned his nose up at KJ. They're still going and haven't sold out.
Seeing the footage of them recording in the King's Chamber is incredible. I'm in awe. Wish I can see all of it.
Amazing band, great film. Thankyou for uploading.
R.I.P. Raven and Geordie...
you glorious bunch! Such a rare thing for a band to keep just getting better & better with every album.
They're great, but nah. It was more up and down, no rules in their trajectory.
been a fan since the early 80s. KJ will ALWAYS be relevant. One of the greatest "unknown" bands that have ever existed
I love Killing Joke,one of my favourite bands of all time.
I've already watched this a few times but it was only today when sending this to a friend who I know is a KJ fan to check if they've seen it did I notice the URL- youtube...JaZ0iL!
These URLs are usually "randomly" assiged by an algo but it looks like in this case they might've customised it, or is it really just chance? Is that the power of the movie bleeding through?
Amazing documentary about one of the best bands ever.
RIP Geordie
Recently went down the KJ rabbit hole and I have to say they're one of my favourite bands now, I've always loved 'eighties' and a few of my friends like them so I decided to have a proper go at their discography and I'm so glad I did. Absolute legends. Love the documentary, done very very well. Such an enigma of a band, each member etc. Love it!
Thank you for sharing this amazing film.
Great fucking movie! I've been looking forward to watch it for quite several years now and finally I was able. Thanks!
Since 1979 i saw them and discovered them in France and London....they are my light in the jazz vision of the world...they help me to understand this violent world and how to respond to all the problems we meet in our lives.... This incredible music mixe with this words...which come from our inconscient mind and civilisation from the beginning maybe....i find it in their powerful music... and gives me answers i have in me but can't express exactly.... They are the music of my revolution against this horrible money world 'des marchands du temple'...RIP GREAT GEORDIE!!!!!!!
That was a brilliant film about an incredible band, I’m blown away. Really moving and thought provoking. I love this band even more, but also total respect to the film makers ❤
Thanks Johnny!
Still in my top 5 favorite bands ever. This doc really shows how deep this band goes. Amazing
We needed this documentary. Much appreciated.
I am grateful for Killing Joke and all of the creators involved past, present and future
Jaz Coleman once read the Farmer's Almanac at a gas station shitter in Davenport Iowa and predicted 9/11
Phenomenal documentary. Enjoyed intensely. KJ are a perfect band
Jaz is a living legend. He will be more appreciated in 100 years, if our free world still exists....
Yeah but he can be totally full of shit. Going missing, leaving Paul to deal with the business shit & then saying he's on this big spiritual experience. At the time it wasn't like that, Jaz just runaway, he bailed.
Wow! The awakening, brought to you by Killing Joke. Class act.
I watched it with my wife, but the occult/satanic side of it put her right off. Me? I just like the music - and Jaz Coleman is a deep thinker/genius, so credit to him, even though the talk of energy points etc largely goes over my head.
i'd long heard about Killing Joke, but it wasn't until 'Pandemonium' dropped that i clued into this amazing band. i loved every f'n second o' that album and easily became my favorite that year. nearly 10 years later they drop their 2nd self-titled and it's a monster. gradually i've gobbled up all their other efforts and have never really been disappointed with their sonic xplorations - even their pop meanderings......they are truly one o' those ensembles which is greater than the sum o' the parts. great doc. thank you...
Very excited to see this here, been waiting a long time. Although KJ's music is obviously incredible, I've long been more curious about the people and the philosophy behind it
The documentary Killing Joke deserve.
Jaz Coleman’s mum inclusion a nice touch.
An absolute joy to watch. There are so many things I learned about the band here. Thank you
One of the only bands who truly knows what is going on in the world.
Marvellously entertaining at the same time.
The first KJ album I heard was What's the For. I had no idea what I was listening to. I was probably about 13, and was just getting to grips with heavy metal. I liked the aggression of KJ, but there was this dark, intellectual and vaguely disturbing thing going on below the surface, which really appealed to me. Maybe my love of horror and dystopian SciFi may have had something to do with that. I've loved them ever since. Like the Stranglers, it's too simplistic to call them punk. They're so much more, and certainly unique.
Loving this Upload, God if I could come back as someone else, I would came back as Big Paul Ferguson best drummer Bar None. You just need to see this Band play Live absolute CLASS. Can't wait till they play Bristol in March.
Big Paul underrated AF
This band literally influenced everyone post 1980...LEGENDS
No, not literally everyone. Many, many bands, I'll give you that.
@@chelseapoet3664 lol, ok...feel better?
Yes I do, thanks for asking. The scourge of people using 'literally' in an illiterate fashion must be eliminated.....
@@chelseapoet3664 damn i wish we could all be like you: Pretentious and Miserable..😆
@@chelseapoet3664 get over it
Thanks for this. I've wanted to see this for so long.
In my top 5 bands of all time. Always an inspiration to me. R.I.P. Geordie!
It has to be said that the world is just a much better place with killing joke in it! God bless them!
The last time I saw KJ live, was in 2003, and I was very happily surprised to see that loads of fans brought their teenage kids!
Great band! I saw them in 1990 at a small club in Miami. Amazing!
The Cameo?
I once had the privilege of being able to ask raven what were the chances I’d see him, big Paul, geordie, and jaz back together. He just said 3/4’s. It’s almost like he knew he wouldn’t be there.
I've heard there was a secret chord
, that David played and it pleased the Lord
But you don't really care for music, do you?
It goes like this......Geordie's Guitar.
Great doco, a long watch at 2 and a half hours but well worth it, R.I.P. Raven.
I saw them at Scream in LA in 1987 and was one of the best shows ever!
I worked with Killing Joke back in the 80s. Great live band. Except when Jazz got pissed off with a punter...who deserved it....and dived into the crowd , and broke his arm. Geordie, great guitar.
Underrated band
Finally I see this and it is worthwhile indeed.
OMG Thank you Thank you Thank you Thank you Thank you
Excellent documentary !
This group are true masters of tribalistic transcendental hypnotherapy !
Music for the ones who see !
Legends !
That guitar sound tho....
O Yeah!!
AMAZING !!! Thank you very much for this magic documentation ❤️
Fantastic documentary! Many thanks for posting.
This is an exceptional documentary
There is a connection between the Earth and tribal dance, there is a tune beneath our feet. Killing joke made tribal dance with rock instruments and it truly changed me. Repeated listenings to any of their first 4 albums would induce a trance making work or play fluid and timeless. At work I played Revelations for 8 hours a day for 2 months never changing the tape in my walkman.
my favorite band to see live.
Rip geordie walker
Unspeakable speaks to me like no other song... It literally does something to my soul... Then the song millennium.. there are no words, merely an intense feeling that makes me sing very loudly from the Earth to this sky... But unspeakable it's a meditation that takes you somewhere else every single time. If I knew they were going to do it live in Las Vegas I would gladly pay the $17,000 for the VIP Cabana!
Thanks for sharing!!
Excellent doco, very enjoyable two and a half hours.. always loved the music and now the member too.
Besides the obvious, looks like these guys had an influence on
- death metal
- black metal
- stoner
- spiritualism in music
- Troy Sanders' vocals
- Tool/ Danny Carey
- Metallica's Inamorata
Am I wrong here?
My band since I saw Fred Astaire dancing on war ground,
'79/80! 10 times privileged to watch through ALL mutations!💚💚💚
Thank you algorithm
I absolutely love it, im exactly 20mins in... Now i only heard of killing joke just over a yesr ago because i found Niceland. Because i was born in 83...hilarious too that im also a J. Coleman...interesting to find out Paul Raven passed away 🙏🙏🏾 passed away on one of my birthdays. A day which falls under the native American Raven zodiac. And im sure they know this, that day is also the same bday of bela lugosi...also the same day as Jack Napier....google it... Fun times lol, i love it 🤘🤙🤘🏾🤙🏾
I LOVE "BRIGHTER THAN A THOUSAND SUNS". I ALSO THINK "CHANGE" IS AMAZING TOO.
I’ve been compelled to explore their prolific discography -me too
Wardance is one the greatest songs by any band,ever
I first saw them January 1980, they were really good but you could see that Jaz was uncomfortable being the singer/frontman. Youth was totally Sid Vicious, chain around his neck with the rabbit lock, the lot. I talked with Geordie & Paul, they were great they'd hadn't been gigging long & they were happy just riding the buzz that had started about them. Being honest it was hard to take Youth & Jaz seriously, one being a Sid clone & the other looked like he just been fired from the Kebab shop.
Waw, finally. The initial trailer came out in 2009.
THE WHOLE WORLD HAS BECOME A KILLING JOKE ?
Youth was great, but Raven was without peer - his loss will ever be felt by KJ.
Mad old Jaz. Taking his "Fiddler on the Roof" concert party to Egypt. Blame Thatcher pray to Crowley.
Love blame Thatcher pray to Crowley!
Jimmy Page has something to say about this band. Need you know more?
oh, wow! thanks!!
I absolutely ADORE Killing Joke. Their later albums, you must check out if you haven't.
Which ones? I always loved them but would like to hear more..
@@Modernmeemsshop European Super State is good. Start there
I knew „Eighties“ and „love like blood“ like everybody else who grew up in the 80s. Later in Clubs the same songs until everything changed:
Spotify decided to play „Euphoria“ and I was about to skip it as somehow this song did not fit in the entire EBM playlist - not even a bit .. but I told myself, hey, this song has something, let’s see which band it is: Killing Joke.
Over the course of years „Pylon“ have become the most listened record on Spotify for several years and I still listen to it frequently.
A few weeks later they played in my neighborhood and I went to see them. What a coincidence 😀
It was about time and meant to be to discover the real music of Killing Joke
I first heard of Killing Joke as a child on NFSU2
That was over a decade ago, i love these guys.
Almost two decades, buddy. Time flies.
