i love this song the bass rIFFS R wicked and Big pauls Beats r Groovy danny is a badass guitarist he plays like a Master jazz sings so accurate to their playing
What the FUCK happened to the 80's. Fuck hold me in your arms and read me a bed time story. Punks in England had KJ on there leathers, now its on there teddy bears? killing me softly with his words...........
The money started flowing again, Punk needed a collapsed economy to unify disaffected youth. Or as Crass put it, Punk became "just another cheap product for the consumers head"
Even though this was from their most [deceptively] commercially-palatable offering, it's right up there with their debut and, *gasp* "Revelations" as one of the three ultimate statements that KJ ever made.
This was very controversial LP back in the day, but I always loved it. I love Jaz Coleman's soft and pretty vocal delivery juxtaposed against the gloom-and-doom lyrical content. It's nice and melodic and (gasp!!!) wonderfully produced which understandably confused some of their original fanbase. Still, this still stands as one of my favorite albums ever. Check out that obstinate bassline and the way it relates to the melody. Fucking awesome.
Patterns I'm finding As pain and joy and sorrow mingle. Patterns we're finding Our faces raised in adorations.Deserts are paradise, awake to genocides. Delight and suffering, these roles that we have found Nourished by food we eat, hungered by waste excrete From apes or sons of god, let every act be sacred. Patterns I'm finding As pain and joy and sorrow mingle. Patterns we're finding Our faces raised in adorations.
The first KJ record I heard was Nighttime and it is still one of my all time favorite records. This song was from their next album and has a very similiar sound. I love it. KJ did a webcast from a 2006 show in Amsterdam and it's pretty damn cool. That haunting guitar open chords and synth keyboards really defined the 80's new wave sound but KJ was actually cool. Wish I was listening to this stuff in the 80's. If you like this, check out Ministry 12" singles Halloween remix.
This song is so underated like the majority of the work of Killing Joke. Top 5 all time out of the 80's. Even though they are weird, predicting the world going down and living in Iceland. Even though they helped the launch of the Sugarbabes.
"Brighter than a Thousand Suns is one of the most underrated albums of all time." I agree. I've been looking for a good quality version of this video for some time. Many thanks for posting it. Perhaps you'll allow embedding so that I may share this beautiful track with others.
Never knew what the hell he was saying. Just ckecked; great lyrics!

I love the fucking album;
because a lot of people saw it as sold out
they had a period of commercial success and financial backing.
The best production I think I've ever heard on a record...
it's as clean as a nun's cunt!

Some Kiling Joke Fans, are very critical about 'Brighter than a Thousand Suns', Which is a great shame.
In my opinion, This Album was Killing Jokes Spiritual Transformation - howbeit, less ferocious.
I would ike to see Jaz and the Band do something similar again.

Courage and Cowards move, heroes to ecstasy
Welcomes of war and wounds, vigil and vitcory
Structures of atoms dance, sugar towards the taster,
Prey to the predator, love as we're falling down
Through light and laughter flow, to dirge and death we go,
Mindless processions move, lanterns of burning towns,
Welcome to fray and feast, bliss in all sorrows found,
Rhythms and random moves and waves of revelations.
