favorite albums produced by Killing Joke!

Have to honestly say not too thrilled with "Rapture."  It sounds like it was 
recorded in a racquetball court.

Believe me, he went through it.

He designed about 20 sleeves and certain people were more involved than 
others shall we say!

It looks a bit computer Dali if you ask me? That is if the old nut was
still alive huffing paint, or whatever he did back then before he did his 
art.

Not typically Mike but I know the band had some very firm  ideas.

Quite abstract I'd say!

Dali was Photoshop before anyone even thought of the word.

I don't like it, either, and I thoroughly enjoyed Absolute Dissent and
Hosannas.

I wrote this on Aleph Kali's FB posting of "Rapture," so I'll just re-paste
it here, as it's all I can think of to say here, too:


"It sounds a little too 'Pandemonium' 90s to me. Big Paul is still doing
metronome drumming in this, no heavy-on-the-toms tribal stuff that I
thought we were promised (hope other tracks have this). It really reminds
me of 90s industrial metal Pandemonium-era KJ, which is not a great thing,
to me. The LP cover art is also very Photoshop 2.0. Meh..... Hope the other
tracks are better."

That's annoying.

They should put the track on the vinyl too. ?20 for no more tracks than the 
cd is a shame.
