    DECAY, folks? The UK Decay album "A Night for Celebration" is totally
    something fans of the first KJ releases would love, I'm sure of it.

    UK Decay's "Night for Celebration" album cover and tracklist is here:

    Most of the songs are great.

    Of course, KJ have been so eclectic in their styles and experiments it's
    hard to pin down any one group that consistently resembles them.
    Sometimes I feel like the biggest influence on the late 90s Nine Inch
    ails release, The Fragile, must have been KJ's Pandemonium!
