[kj] "Singles Collection" US release: Warning

[LONESTYLE at aol.com]

Fuckin Hell! I didn't think about that! I may have to just cancel the US  
Amazon then order from the UK Amazon which comes out to $18. I thought the 
USA  one was 3 discs as well? Oh well...
 
Thanks for the info! Cheers!

Amazon has it for $14 with a release date of June  4.

But it appears to be a two-disc set  only, without the 3rd rarities disc. 
Fairly warned, be ye. Just  buy it from Amazon UK; the price comes out about 
the same  anyway.

Two CD set. 2013  collection from the British Post-Punk legends fronted by 
Jaz Coleman. With a  fierce intelligence plus a thirst for esoteric 
knowledge that matches a music  that is visceral and almost spiritual in its primal 
spirit, Killing Joke are  like no other band. This is a group who came out 
of Punk and then set out on  one of the most remarkable and idiosyncratic 
journeys ever. The Singles  Collection 1979 -2012 captures their ever-evolving 
story with a series of  dark, apocalyptic songs, they have successfully 
combined Disco and Funk and a  shamanic wisdom with the dark side of the Punk 
fall-out. Their influence has  been enormous, with an unlikely roll-call of 
musicians taking their cues from  the KJ catalogue - from Nirvana to most 
modern American Metal to many DJs and  dance music mavericks. few, however, 
coming close to the band's innate power.  33 tracks. 

I have it already, of  course, and am still quietly smoldering over the 
absence of "Turn to Red, "  "Pssyche" or "Change" instead of two tracks from 
OTG and "Fresh Fever" just  because they released it on a split single for 
Record Store  Day.

Also, "New Uprising" needed to be on that 3rd  disc.
