[kj] Duendes...The Spanish Sessions

[Neil Perry]

Have I returned to an alternative universe or the twilight zone or
something?
Am I reading this right - Killing Joke have recorded and designed and
got ready for release an album, all in a few months? OK, so all they had
to do was be in the same room and play, but still. Ho. Lee. Crap.

> BACK TOGETHER FOR THE FIRST TIME SINCE 1982!!!!*

> About the release Jaz Coleman said "Can you imagine it, the original line

> up hasn't been in the same room since 24th February 1982 and I am waiting

> aware there have been many incarnations of Killing Joke over the years,

> however the original line up bears no comparison to later line ups, neither

> socially or musically. For example there are always two people moving in

> opposite directions. In the present tense this manifests as Youth insisting

> that we write some new songs for the tour whereas my concern is learning

> five hours of music (ie two sets) always the revolutionary and the

> reactionary, simultaneously. Our conversations and debates follow a similar

> it locks in it is both emotional and devastating. For me, my life seems

> strangely complete with these characters (who, when all is said and done,

> are family) We started as teenagers together. Killing Joke was our further

> education and now we are all approaching fifty!"

> Here then is the raw beautifully imperfect soundtrack to so many peoples

> lives least of all our own.

> New album in January if we are still alive. All our love and best wishes to
