[kj] PR

[sade1]

  Yeah, quite possibly at Kerrang, the press in general, the guy who rated 
the gig,his band (the Darkness), the band's genre and bands of it (recall his 
90s attacks against Oasis/Britpop?), or all/any combination of the above. 
   The worst of it is that it will be undestood by many as all or any combo 
of the above. And he further fucks it up by personalizing the offense: "..fuckers likethat..." 

   I chalk it up to an antisocial, maybe anti-authority streak in him, and journos 
and pop(ular) people are his whipping boys(?)

Do you see that as a dig at the press (kerrang), or the guy who likes their music?
Jaz seemed to love having his arse licked by kerrang...I guess they'll  have to play metal all the time now ;)

> ...Killing Joke?  They're moving off the radar pretty fast.


Exhibit A [courtesy of J.H.]:
 
"The guitarist of [The Darkness] was there... he listed that gig as the 'Best Gig Ever'
in a Kerrang! questionaire. 
 
Jaz's verdict: " 'I don't want fuckers like that at our gigs.' "
 

Andthat's why Killing Joke never got anywhere they should be in the last 20 years.

Does anyone actually do PR for Killing Joke?
They're moving off the radar pretty fast.
