The Reissue Thread

[Julian, Bespoke SEXPERT]

I’d agree it is rock bottom except nearly everything that followed is also a pile of ass.

I'll defend Yield.

[StoneTheCrow]

That’s the one that keeps it at “nearly” everything.

Don’t forget the coveted laminate and guitar pics.

I know this was already posted, but some video and now it's available for streaming

K÷ is a unique collaboration between kindred spirits: Joy Division/New Order’s Peter Hook and Killing Joke: Official’s Jaz Coleman & Geordie Walker. The trio have today released a brand new video for ‘Giving Up The Ghost’ from their ‘K÷93’ EP.
The ‘Giving Up the Ghost’ video features never before seen footage that was filmed in November 1993 in Cologne, Germany as part of the Freispiel documentary - watch in full here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ulD2YHel5Bs
"Freispiel was the brainchild of Arno Steffan who’s goal was to get all his favourite musicians  in one place so they could jam together. Each musician was gifted their choice of vices for the creative processes - as well as being put up in Germany’s premiere Rock n’ Roll hotels! This unique footage is so special as it’s the first time Hooky, Geordie and myself wrote and played together. A snapshot in history creating music with my brothers.” - Jaz Coleman.
The ‘K÷93’ EP is available as a numbered 10” on clear vinyl in a gatefold sleeve; this beautifully presented release also includes a gig flyer postcard and exclusive sleeve notes by Jaz Coleman and Peter Hook.
