Killing Joke Reunite For New Album And Tour

March 3, 2008
Killing Joke Reunite For New Album And TourThe original line-up of Killing Joke will play their first gigs together for 26 after reuniting for a new tour and album.

The post-punk icons will release a new album this summer, but will play their back catalogue in its entirety with a series of two night residencies across the globe.

The four piece - Jaz Coleman, Geordie Walker, Paul Ferguson and Martin ‘Youth’ Glover - will play their first two albums on the first night, following up with 1994’s Pandemonium and their singles collection on the second.

The tour kicks off in Japan on the 13th September, hitting London’s Forum on the 2nd and 3rd of October, reports Pitchfork.
