[kj] KJ Covers Album?

I think "No Quarter" would be the best song for KJ to cover, though Jaz could not do that epic howl that Robert Plant does. And Robert Plant has a whole different vibe.



KJ doing Bauhaus' "Stigmata Martyr"? I think they could sink their teeth into that. Win/win for both bands.

KJ covering some Led Zep would be interesting, e.g. No Quarter.

Not that I'm an especially big Zep fan, but I think their music would work quite well in that it would show off the talents of the Joke pretty well...

Well, I figured as much (the flat Foos and their ilk doing KJ covers). However, in the dreamland that is the Gathering, I venture a question......what song would you like Killing Joke to rip to freaking threads? Wouldn't this appeal to the actual fan of Killing Joke more than assholes with money doing shitty things to their great songs? This could be a limited edition, signed and numbered.....shit, even have fans vote on what songs they want "covered" by Killing Joke on the official website........who on this list wouldn't be buying that?

I can't believe I am frustrated about my beloved Killing Joke!

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..

I have to say, this is a poorly worded item. Is the album to be a compilation of bands covering KJ tunes? Or is it KJ covering other bands? Seems awfully dubious.
