Killing Joke
Single Review
Hosannas from the Basements of Hell
Released 20/03/2006 on Cooking Vinyl

These grizzly grunge metallers are fronted by the eccentric Jaz Coleman, whose vocals saddle the eerily frantic bass lines and punching guitars to ride through the murky depths of the depraved mind in 'Hosannas from the Basement'. They have always been the most palatable band of this ilk over the years, mainly for the crunching instrumentals that shudders you into an alert state. Killing Joke seem adept at keeping just the right side of deranged depravity to haunt the mainstream and will continue to do so for many years, it seems.
