Killing Joke have announced the release of a new EP, ‘Lord Of Chaos’ – you can listen to its title track below.
The London post-punk stalwarts’ upcoming release will be their first new material in seven years, following their most recent album, 2015’s ‘Pylon’.
In addition to announcing the new LP, the band – comprising Jaz Coleman, Paul Ferguson, Geordie Walker, and Youth – shared the title track, which continues in a similar vein to their last full-length: a heavy, industrial sound, with haunting vocals and driving guitar and bass.
“Flash points everywhere/ And everybody’s scared/ Complex systems failure/ And the lord of chaos is in,” Coleman sings on the song’s fiery chorus.
You can check out the new track below:
