[kj] Yiggers at Porn....

[andrew scott]

What do I mean by too accessible?  Perhaps the fact that it sounds like hard alternative rock that the music community should be into rather than far-out weirdo stuff or even things like Extremities, which to b honest had much deeper effect on me.  But maybe was just the time of life & the prevailing climate that added to that.  Whilst I think Absolute Dissent is great LP not sure if I would class it in my higher echelons of listening pleasure.  Only time will tell.  It certainly has its moments.  As I said it is accesssible enough to be more widely loved I believe.

?? What exactly do you mean by "too accessible"? Sounds?like more "gettable" but 
thought I'd ask.

That is so pathetic not really worth commenting on but I will.? If someone 
slagged off Killing Joke I would just feel sorry for?their lack of?musical 
insight, but wow u must really love those arseholes.? I?am entitled to say 
exactly what I want & I will say it again.? For me Big Country were utter shit!? 
Number one albums means nothing to me, so I guess we are very different people.? 
In fact I think Killing Joke have become too accessible with this LP.? More 
underground the better. And I don't like K Bushes music either.? So stuff it up 
yer haggis!?

Ugh! the only thing worse than others?relentlessly quoting "Eighties" (after I 
cite KJ as my fave)?is for others then to either or also quote "Love Like Blood" 
and for toppers to say it like *I'm* the waking Anachronism.?
A quick?reply?that KJ?has released?3 albums in the last 7 years puts 
the?Clueless shoe?on the other foot (theirs).
