Killing Joke postpone record and tour
Mar. 08, 2010
Killing Joke recently posted a blog announcing the bummer news that they will have to delay the release of their upcoming album as well as any touring to support the release. The LP is the first one by the band since 2006's Hosannahs From The Basements of Hell, first since the death of Paul Raven and first with the original lineup since 1982's Revelations. Back in January Jaz Coleman and Youth spoke about the upcoming album which you can read here. The full statement from the band is below.
Dear Friends and Family,
It is with great reluctance that I have to inform you all of our postponing the upcoming tour dates and rescheduling of the album release.
I am incredibly grateful to The Gathering and fans for all their support, and it pains me very much that things have unfolded as they have.
We are all super excited about the recent recording and I personally am very proud to have taken part and had so much input in this endeavor. We have all given our utmost to make this an album to be proud of and to capture the best that is Killing Joke.
Unforeseen circumstances have made meeting deadlines impossible and have led to this extremely hard decision.
Of course all tickets will be honoured for the rescheduled shows in September and we eagerly look forward to playing the new material for you.
With Respect,
Big Paul. KJ.
