Very High Frequencies Episode: 176 Killing Joke (R.I.P. Geordie)

Very High Frequencies 176 (Killing Joke - RIP Kevin Geordie Walker)  is a 21 song salute to the recently departed guitarist. Along with Jaz Coleman, Geordie played on every single Killing Joke album. We will nearly play a song from all fifteen full length KJ albums as well as some deep cuts from EP’s and even a track from 1992 spin off project Murder Inc. From 1980’s self titled release right up to last year’s Lords Of Chaos single, Geordie never stopped coming up with powerhouse riffing that avoided any wanky guitar solos. This allowed the bass & drums plenty of breathing room to pulverize sound waves and create a tribal rhythm that propelled the band into a frenzy. On top of that slithering snakepit stands a man with the weight of the world on his shoulders. Too much knowledge can be a burden. Dark eyes speak volumes. Listen to the man’s words. Heed the prophetic poetry of Jaz Coleman; commenting on mankind’s race to extinction. Is it possible we can change our ways before it’s too late? It’s time to Honour The Fire with a Requiem for another fallen KJ brother. Following  Raven’s untimely demise we lament the legendary Post punk guitar icon Geordie Walker, for he has left this moral realm. Mournful with tragedy we find some comfort and solace knowing he has left behind an amazing legacy of music which will live on. Help celebrate his life’s work this week on Very High Frequencies 21 Song Salute to Kevin “Geordie” Walker.
