First time on vinyl for this 33-track collection + album reissues
Killing Joke ‘s 2013 compilation The Singles Collection: 1979 – 2012 is being issued on vinyl for the first time with black and coloured vinyl 4LP packages available.
The chronological collection of the band’s singles features 33 tracks, including ‘Wardance’, ‘Eighties’, ‘Love Like Blood’, ‘Millennium’ & ‘Pandemonium’.
The four-LP set is described as “a deluxe gatefold package” so this is not actually a box set, per se. Seven years ago this same collection was issued as a two-CD set, a three-CD package and a limited 33CD box.
In addition to The Singles Collection coming out again, Killing Joke (1980) and the Pandemonium (1994) albums are also being reissued on black and coloured vinyl. The latter on CD, too.
The classic debut album has gatefold artwork recreated by original designer Mike Coles, the sole addition being the use of silver pantone ‘spot’ colour on the sleeve. Pandemonium is Killing Joke’s biggest-selling album to date and the reissued double LP version features new cover artwork from designer Mike Coles and stays true to the original track-listing.
All of the above will be released on 11 December 2020, via Spinefarm Records.
