This sweet vintage tee is for the English band, Killing Joke, who released their self-titled debut album in 1980. It wasn't until several years later that the band reached mainstream success with their album Night Time, a record best remembered for songs like "Eighties" and "Love Like Blood".
For most of the 80s, the band's lineup consisted of Jaz Coleman, Geordie Walker, Paul Raven, and Paul Ferguson. Together these four released the follow up to Night Time, Brighter Than a Thousand Suns, which featured the singles "Adorations" and "Sanity.
While Killing Joke never achieved much commercial success, they were an influential act that inspired many popular alternative artists. Members of Metallica, Jane's Addiction, and Nirvana have all cited Killing Joke as an inspiration, and they also left a notable mark on industrial bands like Nine Inch Nails and Ministry.
Fits like a modern unisex adult large. There are some small holes and discoloration on the back, see pics.
