[kj] KJ Covers Album?

[folk devil]

Do you not think a KJ 'obsessive' would buy KJ covering Metallica? ;)

Even if it would sound hideously wrong :P

S'all PR and marketing.

 

(Do people still buy music?)

people, read this line:
 
"Well, Killing Joke are releasing a covers album where bands including Metallica, Foo Fighters and Tool cover the cigar-chomping death obsessives’ finest numbers."
 
Other bands will cover KJ songs. This will make money because of the many Metallica and Tool et. al. obsessives who will buy anything these bands put out. KJ covering these bands would be silly.

I certainly hope it is NOT Killing Joke doing covers.  One band paying "homage" to their favorite artists that "inspired them" reek of contractual obligations and writers block AND laziness.

I would assume it is other bands doing KJ covers; to be paid with the wads being thrown at them by universal. Typical PR stunt, to 'broaden' their listenership. Let's hope the monies are non-recoupable..
