Before Nirvana, NIN, Ministry, etc. there was Killing Joke. Classified as an ‘English post-rock punk band’ (ya I am not sure what that means either), this band is always an in your face, raw sounding, punk rock band.

I used to listen to their song “Eighties” over and over as it was the first song on one of my skate-ratt mix tapes when I was growing up (yes in the 80’s). I recorded it off of a pretty cool indie local university radio station. Check out their myspace page below for some more current songs.
