[kj] KJ Covers Album?

[sade1]

> ..Kasabian doing Tension...


Yep. I can see KSBN taking on Empire Song, Chapter III, or some other of the Revelations or Fire Dances albums.

"I'd rather hear Grace Jones do Turn To Red"
Yeah!!!!!!!!!!!!! Damn, I would be buying that album, I would be advance ordering it if this was the case.  Metallica and Lamb of God, get outta here.  KJ's base of fans can be broadened much more if legends that were not meant to give solace only to 15 year old boys (not that there is anything wrong with that, lots of great rawk started out that way) like Grace Jones would do a track.  Expand, do not consolidate just yet guys.  I really wish they had a manager who would say this?????    
 
The great thing about KJ is what Folkie is sayin here, I mean, Killing Joke bleeds into EVERY genre.
Hell yeah I love their "rawkin stuff" during certain times, but their musical content is alot more solid than the slavish bands that will cover them.  Damn, the possibilities for a great KJ cover album really are endless.

To be filed under rock and cock cheese, then...
I have (up until lately) found KJ to be independent of genrefication. If they are really going chugga chugga, gwar...oh dear...

I suspect that the reason kj are considering this idea is the same reason they are playing all the rawk festivals this summer – to raise their profile, garner some new fans and make a bit of dosh in the process. I cant see fans of the Pet Shop Boys or Sinaed O’fuckingConnor rushing out in their droves to buy the killing joke back catalogue on the strength of hearing a cover of Millennium. With people like Metallica & Lamb of God doing the covers, the potential for their fans choosing to seek out more kj material is far greater. If this raises their profile, then it has to be a good thing. I still wouldn’t bother buying it though.

            I agree that nothing is gained by "near-original" versions.  I'd rather listen to, say, Pet Shop Boys, doing a take on MIlennium rather than any metal outfit copycating (they won't beat the original)...

The O'Connor suggestion sounds intriguing; not so sure about U2  <grin back.>
