[kj] OT:rob.h-- CELTIC /invocation ect...

[B. Oliver Sheppard]

Javier,

Yeah, 80s Celtic Frost ain't very Killing Joke at all to me. On the 
album _Monotheist_, though, there is that one slower song with 
"ethereal" female vocals and "serious" male vocals that sounds gothy -- 
whatever that means anymore -- but it reminds more of Theatre of Tragedy 
or even Sisters of Mercy, I think. Nothing like "Love Like Blood" or 
"Requiem," etc.

-Oliver
