Back in the day, when we were all young and to a certain degree stupid
(speaking for myself anyway ..haha), it was something cool to have, in a
time when vinyl was the only real format, a funky colour looked great and I
guess one could have bragging rights or whatever, but with the onset of age
and the various formats available, I too, could not give a rats ass what
the colour is.

In the context of Killing Joke, I'm just happy they are releasing anything
at all. Also, as has been pointed out by others, the colour vinyl, has a
worse audio quality.

I still remember having some funky coloured UK Subs, Skids and Squeeze
singles. Also a Pistols, Japanese import, of Nevermind The Bollocks, with
the cover as the vinyl disc picture, it is now a nice clock ...lol

It must be an age thing, I don't know, but a "Lenticular cover", means fuck
all to me either ...lol I just want the music!
