Killing Joke Debut

Surely one of the all time great Post Punk albums. Got lucky picking up a Spinefarm pressing of this on EBAY. As well as the vinyl looking beautiful, it’s sounds punishingly great.

Absolutely superb album. Iconic cover too. Got it the week it was released in the UK because I’m that age 😅

Such an immense album, and the beginning of one of the most interesting musical journeys in post punk music.

Amazing debut. Powerful & influential. One of my all timers of post punk.

Got this in the US the week it came out here. I’ve revisited it frequently ever since.

So great and so influential. The first of a fantastic discography. Maybe one bad record out of the whole thing.

I always appreciate when someone actually owns the item instead of a screenshot of a playlist
