New Killing Joke music!

Killing Joke are back.

With the original lineup from their classic first three records.

They haven’t worked together since 1982.

They have a new EP, In Excelsis, out June 21 on Spinefarm. An album, XIII: Feast of Fools, is scheduled for release on September 6.

Here is a quote from Jaz Coleman:

In the light of the fact that the magnetic North Pole has left Canadian territory and is rapidly moving towards Siberia, volcanoes and earthquakes are becoming monthly events. The biggest oil spill in the history of mankind has still not been effectively capped, not to mention the threat of nuclear confrontation or the Korean peninsula. It is glaringly obvious that Killing Joke is more relevant now than ever before.

Here is “Endgame”, a song from the new EP.
