Reviews & Discussion

Rated 5/5
Review by SadBast May 05, 2006 (edited over 6 years ago)
reviews that described this album as hailing 'a new brutalism' in music were perhaps a reaction to the dominance of the tribal drumming and hypnotic rhythm patterns that had never had such full expression in the post-punk scene of the time. again killing joke delivered a unique music and sound that would influence musicians for years afterwards.
