DEAD LINKS

NOTE : DEAD LINKS
We'd like to thank everyone for preventing us of dead links. For the moment, we are note able to re-up them.

Feel free to keep on preventing us of those dead links. We will update them when we (I and Jeb-E-Diah) have more time to (understand : from september). Some of them will be partially or completely repacked considering albums which would have been issued thereafter and surely with new and improved artworks.

Stay tuned !

KILLING JOKE (ABO #381)

KILLING JOKE
THE JOKE’S ON YOU

There are not many bands like Killing Joke. Lead by frontman extraordinaire Jaz Coleman, the band has now more than 30 years of age yet manages to remain something fresh, energetic and constantly evolving.
Starting as a post-punk act, they succeeded to adapt their trademark sound in time, slowly turning (except for a “poppier” gap in the mid/late 80s, that is) into something more aggressive, infusing a bit of metal and industrial into their music.
Now, back with their original line-up, they’re set to release a new album in September. It was more than time to try to resume their prolific quality career and Magnu took a job that wasn’t as easy as it seems for his first collaboration at Baistophe. Let him be thanked and enjoy “The Joke’s on You”.

1 - Pandemonium (1994)

Awesome band. I only have a few of their albums, really looking forward to hearing this!

Argh. Apparently this file is stored on a file server that limits it to a total of 10 downloads, which has already been reached. Any chance of getting it elsewhere? Thanks!

The reason we recently switched to multiupload is to give the choice... I dunno what service you've chosen, but if it reached some kind of limit you just have to try another.

Ahh, I was using the default, which is RapidShare. Apparently it is limited to 10 copies. After scrolling down, I see there are more locations to grab the file from. Getting it from MegaUpload is working correctly. Thanks.

Great to see Revelations listed high and tracks included. Never understood why that album gets passed over when discussing Killing Joke. To my ear it defines the band in much the same way Presence defines Led Zeppelin but nobody talks about that album either.

Nonetheless, a terrific Baistophe for a terrific band.

Thanks for finally making a compilation in chronological order!

3 reasons why we didn't really make chronological Baistophes anymore :

1- it eases some transitions between songs

2- sometimes only the beginning of the discography is good or there is a "bad period". An unchronological baistophe is then more homogenic

3- It sometimes help to save more songs than a chronological baistophe.

Now, if you prefer a chronological baistophe, you can put the files to the right order, we won't blame you.
