Killing Joke - Wardance (Original 7" Single)

This is the original 7" single released by Malicious Damage records in 1980. It is a tighter, faster, and much more hardcore punk version than the one that appeared on their eponymous debut album in 1981.

Lyrics:

The atmosphere's strange
Out on the town
Music for pleasure?
It's not music no more
Music to dance to...
Music to move?
This is music to march to!
Do a wardance

A wardance

Look at graffiti
Scrawled on the wall
You know the reason
Outside the door
You know something...
Nasty in your mind!
Crawling to get out
Do a wardance

A wardance

We open the pitch
Honesty is sick!
Try to be honest
Look what you get
The food runs short...
And then the money talks
One way out
Your premonition is correct

A wardance

Punk rock new wave music produced some excellent records and this was one of them. I love the way it is so uncompromising. Even the art work on the single cover was uncompromising.
