What Killing Joke did in 1980 is like what Black Sabbath did in 1970 to rock music. Their self-titled debut is a landmark in heavy music and they were way ahead of their time. I can totally see all the punkers thinking 'wait a minute, we were making punk, weren't we?', when suddenly this band comes along and creates a whole new genre by themselves.This album had an immense influence on practically all heavy bands in the 80's and 90's, varying from Metallica to Nirvana and Nine Inch Nails. Killing Joke doesn't sound like any of those bands though. They started industrial rock and a lot of bands abstracted it into a lot of interpretations, which is great.
