Killing Joke announce Honour The Fire UK tour

Killing Joke promise to "sonically destroy" the unwanted future on Honour The Fire UK tour in 2022

Post-punk icons Killing Joke have announced a UK tour for 2022. The 'Honour The Fire' tour will kick off at the Tramshed in Cardiff on March 28 and climax at London's Eventim Apollo on April 9, and it's shaping up to be quite something. 

"It is our privilege to Honour The Fire and celebrate the white heat purification by sound," says bassist Youth. "Join with us in a fearless leap through the sacred flames, into the unknown. Let’s create the future we all desire, by sonically destroying the one we don’t."  

"The fire in our hearts that has sustained and protected us for over 40 years, never goes out," confirms frontman Jaz Coleman .

Last year Coleman collaborated with British pie-makers Piecaramba! on ‘The Joker!', a jerk chicken, red pepper and chilli pie wrapped gluten free pastry. 

Piecaramba!'s stated aim is “to reinvent pie and mash, dragging it kicking and screaming into the 21st century”, but there's no news yet as to whether they'll produce a special tour edition of the treat to sell alongside the band's official merch.

After one swap of supports due to the covid-related tour postponement, Billy Idol has had to sideline Television from his upcoming UK dates. However, filling the gap fresh from their appearance at Bloodstock recently are the UK’s own Killing Joke.

Television are disappointed to announce: “Unfortunately due to illness, we have to cancel the forthcoming UK tour with Billy Idol. We send our deepest apologies to any fans who have bought tickets.”

Billy will be heading out with some new music and a stack of timeless classics for his first appearances in the UK since 2018 and will play 6 Arena dates. Tickets are available from www.aegpresents.co.uk/billy-idol .

Just when you think it’s all over, I’d been missing my brothers in Killing Joke and then this opportunity came up. Looking forward to seeing everyone next week, 1 days rehearsal and a secret gig somewhere in the U.K. Lets get stuck in! – Jaz Coleman, October ’22

Billy has created a style of rock that has gone on to inspire generation after generation. ‘Rebel Yell’, ‘White Wedding’ and ‘Mony Mony’ are up there with the all-time greats.”

Billy’s touring band features his long-time guitarist and collaborator Steve Stevens along with Stephen McGrath (bass, backing vocals), Billy Morrison (guitar, backing vocals), Paul Trudeau (keyboards, backing vocals) and drummer Erik Eldenius.

Though Killing Joke never entered the mainstream, their influence on alternative music and pop culture can not be stressed enough. The band is most notably recognized as a key figure in the English post-punk movement; however, their gloom ridden style helped pave the way for goth and industrial music.

The band formed in Notting Hill, London, England around the late 70s. The group was initially started by drummer Paul Ferguson and singer Jaz Coleman. They were briefly in a band together led by Mataya Clifford, but left to form their own group. Ferguson and Coleman put up flyers around town to recruit new members for their project and eventually got responses from bass player Martin Glover and ex-Rage guitarist Kevin Walker. Not long after the group’s formation they established their own record label Malicious Damage with Mike Coles, who provided the graphic art.

They released their first EP “Turn Red” on 26 October 1979, which racked up quite a bit of attention before it was even put on the shelf. Influential critic/DJ John Peel was impressed with the group’s EP and frequently played it on his radio station. The band’s reputation further grew with John Lyndon’s supportive statement in the new NME publication. With all the positive attention the band was receiving Island Records signed a contract with the band and re-released their first EP.

The band’s early releases channeled the primitivism of punk rock, but dressed it up with eccentric electronic sounds. Their first self-titled full length release ventured into dark sludge rock territories and extreme metal tendencies. It was their first recording to be released through the E.G. label and was moderately successful on the charts, reaching No. 39 in the UK.

The band’s eclectic display of musical ideas appealed to many different crowds, including the metal and punk scene. With their more upbeat, but nevertheless warped songs like “Psyche” and “Follow the Leader” they even gained the interest of disco fiends. Their second album “What’s THIS For....!” went in an even more abrasive direction. The band’s third album “Revelations” was released in 1982 and entered the UK charts at No. 12.

During this time lead singer Coleman became infatuated with the occult and the teachings of Aleister Crowley. He believed that the Apocalypse was coming soon and convinced bandmate Walker to come to Iceland with him to escape it. Youth joined them slightly after. The members formed the project Niceland with some of the musicians from the group Þeyr; however Youth was not convinced that the Apocalypse was coming and joined Ferguson back in England to form the band Brilliant. Ferguson left Brilliant to rejoin the Killing Joke in Iceland and the members of Þeyr went on to form KUKL and eventually the Sugarcubes with lead singer Bjork.

The Killing Joke moved back to England and began recording and touring again. In 1983 they put out their fourth LP “Fire Dance”, which exhibited a more artistic and softer tone than their previous albums. The band continued to release albums in this vein; however, they consequently lost touch with their formative fans. Coleman wanted to make a solo album in 1987, but with pressure ensuing from his label he released it under the name of Killing Joke in hopes of selling more copies. Despite efforts to have other members of the band perform on the album; Coleman, was the only member of the group featured on this release. Unsurprisingly it featured a stylistically different sound, built largely around keyboard leads.

Killing Joke went back to their earlier sound in the 90s and also toured more frequently. The group was back on track with the release of 1994’s “Pandemonium” and 1996’s “Democracy”. Both albums were praised by critics and fans alike. After the “Democracy” tour Jaz Coleman and Martin Glover began crafting heavily orchestrated rock albums in the style of Pink Floyd and the Doors. These releases were also very well regarded critically.

Killing Joke put out their follow up to “Democracy” 7 years later. Their second self-titled album was their first to feature Nirvana/Foo Fighter member Dave Grohl and was also their first to be produced by Andy Gil of Gang of Four.

Killing Joke has since gone on to release “Absolute Dissent” in 2010 and “MMXII” in 2012. They have toured extensively throughout the 2000s and in 2008 they toured with all the original lineup.

Killing Joke has influenced a countless number of artists ranging from industrial troopers like Ministry and Marilyn Manson, heavy metal giants such as Metallica, alternative rock superstars like Nirvana and Soundgarden, and even ambient house groups like the Orb (frontman Alex Paterson was once a roadie for the band).

Live reviews

As alignment of the planets go, this one was pretty unlikely! The chances of Killing Joke (*****) and me both being in Glasgow at the same were pretty far-fetched a few months ago ( I live and work in the USA), but here we were, together again, at the O2ABC Glasgow.

The crowd was bigger than the last time and the performance seemed much better. I have lost count of the times I have seen the band over the years but this was definitely one of the better shows.

In these days of pyrotechnics, flying pigs, numerous guitar and costume changes it is somewhat reassuring to see Geordie stick with the same guitar the entire set (looked like the same one as he used the first time I saw them in 1978!) and Jaz keep the same outfit on!

Surprisingly there was no support, just 90+ minutes of KJ.

The songs were, predictably, mostly from early in the bands career and five culled from new disc, with not a lot in between, which is my main gripe. Some of the songs they have done in recent years have been amongst their best, but they seem to lack the courage to play then live. Oh to hear Gratitude, Invocation, On a hallows eve, or Fema Camp.

Having bought a ticket for this gig from the USA, fate has scheduled another even less likely planetary alignment for 22nd January 2016, Killing Joke and yours truly will both be in Austin at the same time!! Not only will the planets be aligning but a few stars have been thrown in for good measure, one of the support acts is the Soft Moon, my fave band from SXSW 2013.

Report as inappropriate

Have been my favourite band for 37 years. Seen them live on many occasions and they always put on a good show and have always been 'tight'. The first time was at Night Moves in Glasgow when I was still at school and had the pleasure meeting Jaz - coming into the audience afterwards, signed my t-shirt and to me and my mate back stage to meet the band.

Was really looking forward to seeing them at the Barras and its legendary acoustics, after the last show was interrupted by a power cut at the ABC.

They are so good it is easy to ignore the pensioners and high concentration of fat/old/baldy men - I match a few of those criteria. So disappointed. Everything, apart from the vocals, was drowned out by the bass guitar. Was a dull and flabby blanket muffling the other instrument. Drums sounded miles away and the guitar (which define the unique sound of the band IMHO) were barely audible. Some songs that I known and loved since I was 16, were barely recognisable.

Maybe this is a one off. If not, and I hate to say it, but perhaps it is time to throw in the towel.

Saw the Prodigy the previous week, and they really know how to make a good sound - and that was in a shed (SEC Glasgow).

Killing Joke kicked-off the second part of their glorious 40th anniversary tour to a sold-out show at Le Poisson Rouge in NYC. The venue was great because the stage was low and there was no separation between the fans and the band. We were so close that we spoke with the keyboardist Roi Robertson (who was very friendly). The set-list would satisfy fans of every era of their body of work, going back to their first album with Wardance, The Wait and Psyche to Autonomous Zone from 2015's Pylon. They were tight--the sound was excellent and the dramatic movements of Jaz Coleman emphasized the message that the lyrics conveyed. Geordie's guitar was as smooth and fierce-sounding as ever and Youth's bass punctuated and complemented the rhythm of Big Paul Ferguson attacking the drums. Psyche was particularly special as Big Paul Ferguson and Youth both sang. The encore was particularly satisfying with "The Death and Resurrection Show". Despite thinking nothing could top such a tremendous performance, we stuck around after the crowd left and actually met and spoke with Big Paul Ferguson AND Jaz Coleman! Killing Joke--a show not to be missed.

Thinking of going to a Killing Joke gig? Well it’s time to get the eyeliner out and release your inner punk! These gigs are not for the faint-hearted, but for the intense rock fan that wants to be immersed in the dark, dangerous atmosphere that follows the band.

Front man Jaz Coleman commands the stage with a presence like no other, an air of mystery and a purpose bigger than just playing music fills the room. Most memorably, their gig at the Roundhouse in 2012 was indeed a moment that will not be forgotten. Crowd favourite ‘European Super State’, dubbed by many one of the best pieces of ‘death disco’ ever written, receives an ear-piercing roar as everyone lifts their hands to clap in time with the bass line.

Plagued by controversy the band may not have had as much commercial success as their peers but they are said to have paved the way for bands such as Nirvana, Nine Inch Nails and Soundgarden, to have a lasting effect on modern rock music. And they sure know how to put on an incredible live show, and once you have experienced one, you will never want to miss out!

The concert venue was nice. If last night’s show was your first opportunity to see Killing Joke live it was probably entertaining. I think I realized that there really is a time when a band should consider not performing live anymore. That time was when I watched Jazz Coleman, after the third song stagger over to the speakers brace himself head down while he took a sip of water. He then paused for a few seconds hand gripping the speaker to gather himself. Finally turning back to face the crowd staggering forward he began a rant that his country was considered third world, then he got back to the grind. It didn't appear that he was intoxicated (the roadie lit incense just before the show started to set the tone) just that it was all a bit too much. Hopefully the show in Brooklyn will be more energetic.

What a grand pleasure it was to see an iconic band such as Killing Joke. 40 years in the business and still a personal favorite of mine. Being able to hear the classics was superbly appreciated and awesome. I would have liked to hear a few if the newer songs but they kept it old school and still shined. For me the highlight was hearing "The Wait" by the original band of Killing Joke and not the cover by Metallica. Although a great cover, you can never get the true gritty feel of the original that K.J. can deliver. Bucket list has a new check...in bold, highlighted and coveted. If you ever want to see them live, start planning a trip to the UK because the chance of seeing them live in the U.S. again is highly doubtful.

Columbus, Ohio's Skully's is a great venue; however, I think the bands could have done a bigger venue. PIG opened up with a brutal set of harsh industrial and also played two old KMFDM songs. Raymond Watts is a great musician and was signing, taking pictures, and chatting with the fans after the show. Very personable and approachable guy. I was very impressed by his humbleness and friendly interaction with everyone. Killing Joke absolutely killed it with a brutal set of songs from all their albums. Their stage persona is still highly engaging and full of energy. Amazing show.

Really a great show! I'd never seen KJ in concert before and they didn't disappoint. The band was playing great, Jaz was doing his odd dance/march and singing in his usual way, talking to the audience a bit between songs. I managed to get right in front of them for the hour and half they played. KJ covered a good range of songs from Wardance to newer stuff. It was awesome! Best show I've ever been to, closest I've ever been to a headlining band!

Killing Joke more relevant than ever in an age of greed and inhumanity, a voice of dissent that says NO! you don't have to follow this path. The thinking man's band that have dabbled with musical styles and forged them into conscious songs that encourage the listener not only to think but to act - framed by a colossal unique wall of guitar. Challenging, inspirational and not for the faint of heart.

They seem to be getting better with age without losing any of their edge. The sound was awesome, best yet. Jaz was as animated and intimidating as ever.

It's a great venue and a great crowd. Despite the mean average age getting higher, it was still a mixed bag of young and old who manage to mosh away to a great playlist.

I just wish I could see them again on this tour...
