Killing Joke (2003 Album)

Killing Joke is the twelfth studio album by Killing Joke, released on July 28, 2003 by Zuma Recordings.

Produced by Andy Gill of Gang of Four, the album featured long-time Killing Joke fan Dave Grohl on drums. This is also Killing Joke's second self-titled album, as an effect of the hiatus.

The song "The Death & Resurrection Show" was featured as part of the soundtrack of the video game Need for Speed Underground 2 and The Covenant movie soundtrack.

Famous quotes containing the words killing and/or joke:

    Does he who loves someone on account of beauty really love that person? No, for smallpox, which will kill beauty without killing the person, will cause him to love the person no more. And if one loves me for my judgment, for my memory, he does not love me, for I can lose these qualities without losing myself. Where, then, is this myself, if it be neither in the body nor in the soul?
    Blaise Pascal (1623–1662)

    The most welcome joke to me is the one that takes the place of a heavy, not altogether innocuous thought, at once a cautionary hint of the finger and a flash of the eye.
    Friedrich Nietzsche (1844–1900)
