“I really like Hammersmith as a venue. It’s good to be close to West London, the band’s original stomping ground.”
Formed in London’s Notting Hill in 1979, sonic terrorists Killing Joke have been cited as an influence by acts as diverse as Metallica, Nirvana, Faith No More, Ministry and Nine Inch Nails. Their current line-up features all four original members. Frontman Jaz Coleman, who was recently awarded an Honorary Doctorate of Music by the University Of Gloucestershire, previews the band’s first UK tour in three years.
