Description

In celebration of the band's 25th anniversary, Killing Joke played two sold-out nights at London's renowned Shepherds Bush Empire in late February 2005, and captured the event on film for posterity. The end result is a concert DVD that not only effectively captures what Coleman describes as the quintessential Killing Joke Gathering ("A primal ceremony of friends old and new"), but shows one and all that the band, led by Coleman, guitarist Geordie Walker, and bassist Paul Raven, have plenty of fuel in the tank, and are in it for the long haul, until the wheels fall off. Over the course of a 90-minute set, the trio, along with keyboardist Nick Walker and new drummer Ben, tear through a veritable "greatest hits" set, spanning from 1979 to 2003, with strong emphasis on the band's early-80s output. In fact, a whopping six songs from the Killing Joke debut are unleashed, each of the tracks proving to have aged very well, including such seminal titles as "The Wait", "Wardance", "Complications", "Bloodsport", and "Requiem", the one highlight of the lot being a powerful rendition of the band's own mission statement, "Primitive".
