Is Dave Grohl serious? He can't read music? Surely he's exagerating, like he may not be able to have a sheet of music sat infront of him and be able to play it whilst he reads it, but he must know how to read it in general...
I mean I talk about Dave Grohl with my drum teacher a lot because i worship him and we both know he's a better musician/drummer for having more instinct and natural rhythme than knowledge of how to play things physically, but still...can't read music? :P
First listen to The Damned - Life Goes On (1982) and then to the Killing Joke - Eighties song (1985). If anything it was Killing Joke ripping off The Damned.
Yeah i just did some research on what Jaz did. For as long as I can remember we've had to sing the national anthem in Maori first then in english. But what I didn't know is that Jaz is the reason why we sing the first bit in Maori. He petitioned to make it official, which is cool.
As far as Maori are concerned, they get some pretty sweet deals, like claims to land and resources and the like. But I just had to question the 'struggle for acceptance' part, the African Americans and Australian Aborigines have had a struggle.
Every Aborigine,whether American or English or New Zealands or Australian,they have had their struggle,which is a shame,since they own their land historically.
..It is not about attacking English territorialism,but about colonialism in general.
I totally agree, but New Zealand (in my bias opinion) has quite a few laws and progressive legislation which make the Maori "struggle" just that bit easier. Where as in Australia (once again my opinion) they have very few or no such legislation.
If anything I was more surprised at why Jaz decided to get involved as I believe this would have happened anyway.
@knailed ..I hate to do this ..but I think you mean 'berating each other' not 'belating'..which now means I've ruined all unity over the issue by pointing that out..god I'm a shit...sorry.
they were actually thinking of letting different drummers be part of this but dave insisted that he play the whole album... and im fucking glad he did
Killing Joke's music is an epiphany for all music lovers, especially, rock music lovers. Dave Grohl played on this CD because Nirvana and Kurt Cobain was influenced by KJ's music. Listen to Come As You Are and then listen to Eighties. This particular CD is pretty heavy, solid and molded for the times.
@AfterlifeBlack - Nonsense. Guitar riffs are guitar riffs.,if that's the case, all distorted electric guitar music is the same. What KJ has, that no other band...3 things: 1.) Tribal style drumming 2.) Intense intelligent lyrics which precisely pinpoints humanities' condition 3.) Massive guitar work by Geordie that doesn't just play major or minor chords - There has not been any band yesterday, today or tomorrow that can ever match KJ's intensity, which is based on mysticism and prophecy.
@ajarnfrankie OK and now listen to The Damned's "Life Goes On" and please stop all this Killing Joke/Nirvana fiction... They're both great bands in their own way.
First of all... jeans with holes in the knees beats the hell out of grown men squeezing into their daughters skinny jeans. Plus, they're comfy.
Secondly... it's too bad that this album has obviously flown over your head. It's a brilliant record. Killing Joke is a lifestyle, not just a run-of-the-mill band. They have a genuineness about them that cannot be topped, and heart that pumps the blood of change into the right people who hear it. Sorry that you're so beneath what's happening, love.
I was a big fan of theirs in the early eighties, when they felt a bit relevant, if slightly fascistic. But this record was pathetic. The politics are 'sixth form' in that they follow the same, boring repressive hypothesis inwhich we are all downtrodden by the conspiracies of the military industrial complex, yadda, yadda.
You're right though, it's probably waaay over my head. Hugs!
I had high hopes of this album, but it was just...terible. Jaz's cliched sixth-form politics really got the better of him. Can't believe he's wearing jeans with holes in the knees in 2003. Jesus...
i still don't know what you mean by sixth-form politics?. sure there is a lot of political themes on that record, but what's wrong with it?, how should it have been written for it not to have been 'sixth-form' politics?
i AM RELATED THROUGH MARRIAGE TO jAZ.nEVERMET HIM YET IN 18 YEARS.MY HUSBANDS FAMILY STAYED IN HIS HOUSE AFTER OUR WEDING AND INDEED I SPENT THE SAME AFTERNOON AT HIS MOTHER GLORIAS HOUSE.mY SON IS STILL TRYING TO MEET HIM- WHAT CHANCE HAVE YOU LOT GOT?HE IS MY HUSBANDS SECOND COUSIN FOR GODS SAKE.
He's a fantastic drummer, even better than a singer or guitarist imo. And I love Foo Fighters so that's a huge compliment. Check out Queens Of The Stone Age "Songs For The Deaf" and his Probot record for good examples of his drumming. Besides that, Killing Joke is my favorite band ever, so the pairing made me giddy like a schoolgirl.
Thanks for posting this. This is really interesting. I never knew that they recorded the drums last. That fact makes the album even better. The album is one of the best albums i've ever heard.
Agreed. I was blown away by the drum performance on this album. I never expected it to be this good. When i heard Dave Grohl was playing i went 'uugh'. When i heard the final album i couldnt stop going...er...woweeeee!!!!...or something.
Wow! Read about that in an interview. Love them, but the "despair" he's talking about always gets to me. That can become pretty... uncomfortable after a while. I still keep coming back(??!!) Unique and disturbing voice... Dark stuff, damn dark, man!

Because he supports the Maori in their struggle for acceptance.
