KILLING JOKE are a seminal postpunk band, formed in Notting Hill in 1979 by Jaz Coleman, Geordie Walker, Paul Ferguson and Youth - who was later to become one of the most famous producers for countless bands.
Their early dark experimental style provided both an alternative to the contemporary punk scene and the less aggressive sound of many other postpunk bands - they massively influential on a range of different styles of music.
In later years (from the 1990s…) they pioneered the industrial metal style with 1990's album “Extremities, Dirt and Various Repressed Emotions”.
