The now four year long reunion of the original Killing Joke lineup is still steaming forward. The band announced plans for another new LP in late 2013 and a singles collection for April 15, 2013 titled appropriately enough The Singles Collection 1979 – 2012. When there are more details on either of those releases I’ll let you know, but in the mean time the group also announced some North American shows for next spring that you can see below. This caps off a strange 2012 for the group, who released the excellent MMXII LP and had Jaz Coleman disappear for a spell after controversially dropping off of a tour with The Cult. He eventually resurfaced and is now releasing a book about the occult.
