Killing Joke - Requiem download song

the oceanic floating delayed guitar sound in the back omg liquid wall of sound

I NEED TO BE ABLE TO TIME TRAVEL THIS MAGICK ERA WHENEVER I WANT...THE COOLEST MOST RAW FIRE TIME.. NEVER COULD IT BE REPEATED...SO FUCKING SLICK...

holy crap!! Haven't heard this one in years! wow!! ok, now, I'm a happy guy.

in my opinion, this is the greatest Killing Joke album.

This sounded pretty bloody, hearing it for the first time on British Forces Broadcasting in Germany living a one hour tank ride from the iron curtain, and it just gave me goosebumps again 35 years later!

Saw Killing Joke support Joy Division at London University on Friday 8th February 1980. What a night ! Youth looked like a dapper version of Sid Vicious, wearing a immaculate white suit. Both bands gave superb performances.

played this at my brother`s funeral. Awesome track by Killing Joke. RIP kid.Love you.

I worked as stage crew for a KJ gig in Brighton in 1981, and got the stage-door security job while they were playing, so missed seeing them (I could hear them). When they came off-stage to go to their back-room, the singer asked me 'what are you looking so fucking miserable out?' so I told them, and they dragged me into their backstage room and forced me to snort cocaine. Then I did more lines voluntarily. Well, and the first one, to be honest LOL

One of the most important and brilliant albums of the 80's. These guys weren't playing games.

The first KJ album cover is based on a photo by Don McCullin, of rioters escape from clouds of CS gas released by British troops in Londonderry, Northern Ireland in 1971. Came across it by accident recently at the London Imperial War Museum exhibition of his work. It was presented as large as a bus, and stopped me in my tracks when it loomed into my sight.This was a pivotal album for me, and I never thought to find out the origins of the artwork, even though I had it lovingly painted on my leather jacket. Glad I know now... and so do you!

this album is worth a long hard listen.

I first heard Requiem playing loud in a large record store in Oxford Street (Virgin? HMV?) in 1980 and loved it so much I hunted down the member of staff responsible to ask who the band was and bought the 12 inch.

it hit me like a hammer 35 years ago, and it still does. in their prime.... as was I :)

If there ever was such a thing as prog punk this was it. I cut my teeth on the Pistols, Stranglers, Buzzcocks and The Ruts but this album, and it's iconic cover, was way, way ahead of it's time. As punk moved into the eighties it's colours moved from Day-Glo to Monochrome, to the grinding chords of Discharge and GBH and direct political action.

This album is Killing Jokes best. Every song on this lp. is great.

foo fighters are not even in the same universe with KJ.   Foo Fighters are teenage angst.KJ is the real world.

15 dislikes? A requiem for your sense of taste perhaps? An absolute classic from an untouchable band. Thanks for posting.

This band was and still is BRILLIANT

I seen KJ live at least a dozen times. More if Jaz could get his f-ing passport worked out. Geordie is a god.

I listened to this in the 80s in Warsaw. It fits perfectly with the view from outside the window.
