Killing Joke are an influential English post-punk rock band named after a Monty Python sketch (see:The Funniest Joke in the World). Jeremy "Jaz" Coleman - who sings, performs keyboards and synthesizers, and composes and conducts strings and orchestral parts when used - fronts the band. Guitarist Geordie Walker and Coleman have been the constant members. They are regarded as one of the most significant bands to have emerged from the post-punk/new wave era of the late-1970s/early-1980s, having strongly influenced bands such as Nirvana, Metallica, Ministry, Soundgarden and Korn, all of whom have at some point have cited a substantial debt of gratitude to 'The Joke'.Original drummer "Big Paul" Ferguson once described their music as "the sound of the earth vomiting". Essentially, Killing Joke's music consists of thick-sounding guitars, often down tuned a whole step, and often with plenty of distortion and chorus; drums and distorted electric bass pounding beats that are heavy, tribal, funky, and danceable, usually all at once; keyboards and synthesizers with sounds typical of New Wave music; and Coleman either singing in an aural voice, singing in a talk-sing style, or shouting in a malevolent-sounding growl.//Ferguson was in the Matt Stagger Band when he met Coleman (originally from Cheltenham, Gloucestershire) in London. In late 1978, after Coleman was briefly in the band, he and Ferguson defected from the Matt Stagger Band and formed Killing Joke with Geordie and bassist/producer Martin "Youth" Glover. According to Coleman, their manifesto was to "define the exquisite beauty of the atomic age in terms of style, sound and form".In late 1979, they began the Malicious Damage record label as a way to press and sell their music; Island Records distributed the records, until Malicious Damage switched to EG Records in 1980. The songs on Killing Joke's early singles were primitive punk rock sometimes mixed with funk ("Nervous System") and dub/reggae ("Turn to Red") styles. Their 'Nervous System/Turn To Red' EP came to the attention of legendary DJ John Peel, who was keen to champion the band's urgent new sound and gave them extensive airplay. They quickly progressed this sound into something denser, more violent, and much akin to heavy metal, as heard on their first two albums, Killing Joke (1980) and the more abrasive What's THIS For...! (1981). They gained infamy performing live throughout their native England during this time, and both fans of punk rock and fans of disco took interest in Killing Joke through singles such as "Follow the Leaders" (1981)
