[kj] new cd

Yeah, I know what you mean... Finally, I have my CD in my hands and I am
elated! I ordered mine online with that special offer of ordering KJ AD and
getting the autographed booklet! SWEET! I also wasn't interested in the
cover versions. Perfectly happy with the album. IT ROCKS!


"I'm now holding in may hands something I never thought I would: the new cd,
just released in the US TODAY!
I was too cheap (esp. after waiting so many month) to buy the slightly more
expensive 2-cd, w/the crappy cover versions
and 20-page booklet (what's on it anyway, KJ history? I already know that).
At least the regular version has the lyrics--and it
even thanks the Gatherers in the liner notes!"

The mixes ought to show up on the ESS single. Killing Joke never had a
truly exclusive track for Japan, and this would not be the time to
start

The links do not look functional.

I ordered ESS thru Amazon UK when the album was released. Finally the
item was cancelled.

You are not missing much with the "dubstep" mix, although I'll try to
be a completist. The territory-specific content seems like a gigantic
step backwards. If the remix is so confusing to the marketplace, or
licensing so difficult that it must not be audible outside the UK,
well I'm guessing you shouldn't have bothered to start. (Underworld
for example. And the Manics.)

Honestly, I think the management get a raw deal here sometimes.

What KJ does is pretty transparent largely because Jaz says lot of things
that perhaps he shouldn't and then the management has to deal with the after
effects.

Ok. Gems of power. That was a fuck up but I think there is alot behind the
story. I am not at all sure it's the managements fault. I saw a great deal
of Raven at the time and there was much going on. The money is not in Matt
Luxon's pocket.

But in a wider context, to get the four original members together, gigging,
recording and getting paid enough so thy are happy to do it takes a huge
amount of effort and a considerable amount of skill. I can imagine it is
like herding kittens at the best of times!

It doesn't help make any money that's why!
Killing joke probably get something like 12-15% of the price TO THE DEALER.
not the sales price. The dealer price is about half that of the sales price.
So to make it simpler, maybe they get 6-8% of sales price.

Of that they have to pay probably 20% to management and then god knows what
else. So actually, making money from cd or digital sales is pretty hard
work.

You can make money in the industry by gigging ( see the rise in ticket
prices) merchandising and licensing. Selling your tracks to adverts and
movies pays considerably more than record sales.

I am afraid 2-3 versions of a cd is necessary to make money these days.
Especially in the digital age when there are so many illegal downloads.

yeah i get that, things are tough all over..

just seems a tad ironic that the mighty KJ are embracing consumerism in such
a way that to me conflicts with the image they have created.
