My GOD Big Paul Fergusons Drumming is so intense, he should be inducked in into the Greatest Drummers Hall Of Fame. LEGEND
When Empire song 1st released is the 1st time i see K.J. previously i had mainly seen bands like Hawkwind. When K.J. came on stage it was total mayhem & blew me away, i then proceeded to see them for the next 35 yrs. Awesome🎵🎼👍
This is how I remember the Joke the first time I saw them around 82 at Cardiff Top Rank and I have never been able to exorcise them completely from my memory since!
i was at this gig im in the crowd there pogoing for all my worth great gig happy days
What a times
God bless Youth! Going through a right rough time here.
Loved KILLING JOKE back in these early days. I saw them in Barrie, Ontario in the early 80's in the middle of the day at an event like this. On a sunny day they pulled off a great set, shocking many who had come to see the Go-Go's and lighter fare. Iggy Pop played a great set too. The energy these guys injected into a crowd was intense. Not so sure everybody appreciated/understood their music.That show made me a KJ fan for life.
Cool to see the crowd having fun. It's all about posing and holding damn cameras high these days.
It's so amazing to see high quality footage with youth and see the band at their early peak before Jaz became a parody of himself just beauty and intensity and madness.
Brilliant video of a live gig, all the excitement and mayhem. Thanks for posting these.
The best image of Punk ever
Superbe! Merci!
good recording. great band
This is when Killing Joke were simply the best band of all time, it's not about musicianship , it's about the pure excitement & frenzy the band whipped the audience in, they may still exist but it's not the same (I agree with Jora)
Ha Ha Ha.....love it!!!
the essence of Punk!
Frighteningly good!!
what a night out this was!
Brilliant.
Jaded punk rock! What a great band.
RIP geordie
Great Stuff from the Eighties was very limited! Killing Joke fought against the sublime acceptance of that decade! ;-)
AHHHH, THEE GOOD OL DAZE! MY FAVE! (NEXT2RAMONESW/DEEDEE)
I just love all the doom and gloom of the 80s! Can someone explain why the era was so dark back then?
Thatcher in power, mass unemployment , unrest and riots, and the cold war. I guess the government sending out Protect And Survive leaflets to every home in the UK advising you on how you could "survive" a nuclear war helped to create a doomy and gloomy atmosphere!
@@Morphstock Everything is perfect now with London thinking its the Bronx com 1980s and Bradford being like Pakistan ...we are living in a golden age in the UK DARLING
Didn't say it was any better. And there were ignorant racists back then just as there obviously are now.
Pending Nuclear War
@@Morphstock Pretty much summed it up for me although you can't please everyone, eh Chris!
Wow
Thanks for upload ....i didn't know Youth played any of the 'Revelations' tracks live before Jaz 'went to Iceland ' ( unless kj played those on the 'delayed 81 tour' ?)
Saw them first on "The Tube" playing "Empire Song" and
such was the impression that they made, I bought the follow up Album "Revelations" with my hard earned but meagre cash! I then bought their earlier single, "Follow the leaders!" And that was that?
Pogoing for more the half a minute is fucking hard work
If thats the gig from Feb 1982, I remember a camera got pulled over onto the crowd
Z Buckridan, yes that is the one.
I prefer the original, primitive and raw Killing Joke and Jaz Coleman to the heavier but more sophisticated and refined model today. I just wish Jaz would shave off that classical composer's mane and get back to basics!
Have you heard "I Am the Virus?"
Unfiltered Fury!
How do they do it ? really ? how the fuck do they do it ???
What happened to the clip with Killing Joke singing Empire Song on Top of the pops in 1982. I used to pick the clip on my IPad, now it's disappeared. Please bring it back!
Was that the one when Paul Ferguson sang because Jaz buggered off to Iceland?
Z Buckridan Yes! They improvised with some guy dressed up in a beekeeper's outfit playing keyboards with drummer Paul miming the words!
Nevertheless, that was the song that made me aware of this unique band called Killing Joke!
But why get rid of the clip as it was one of the few end of Punk eras tunes...same as Punkabilly King Kurt Destination Zululand

this is all being recorded
Youth looks like he's been sleeping in a gutter.
Fucckin must be fit to Pogoing for more then a minute
God that Punk crowd looked like a tribal army ... the difference with Punk and Rave was one 1 was natural and the other too drug infused but shame Punk died after that
Why did this Punk die ?
