[kj] The Fall vs Killing Joke

[rob]

There is a fascinating interview with Smith in this month's Mojo - he's run
a very tight ship (songwriting wise) since inception....staying true to
ideals I'm not convinced (you can take working class Manc out of Manc but...
etc.), I'd rather think he's not capable/inclined to do anything other than
what's kept him going, tight indie tunes across a whole range of influence
but with a voice that precludes any hope of mainstream success. I'm sure
that's the biggest difference between the two bands, the fact that KJ
are/were more capable of a stint in the charts. 
I don't think KJ have strayed too far from what got them going in the first
place, we're still here aren't we?

The Fall have stayed true to their original ideals.*

Killing Joke haven't.

Discuss.

* Some UK radio DJ asked Jaz and Raven in '85 whether they'd stayed true to
their original ideals. The (abbreviated) answer was "Yes".  Shortly
afterwards the DJ was found bound, gagged, and slightly nauseous after a
lunch of raw meat and maggots.
