Killing Joke - Millennium Lyrics

Fear Factory does a great cover.

Why did every rock music video in the early 90s have that dizzying quick-cut editing style? No wonder everyone has ADHD now.

2020 boys here we go

I can’t get this album on Apple Music or Spotify. Anybody know what’s up with that?

Get the album 'Killing Joke for Beginners' it has this song and lots more classics on it.

My favorite killing joke song. This video is awesome. It’s weird but very interesting. Not sure what’s going on

Killing Joke The Greatest Indiband of the World.

anyone here cos of Fear Factory?

The Killing Jokes are the precursors of Ministry, NIN, Marilyn Manson, Rammstein

Ever have a song stuck in your head, a mental itch you can never scratch?

This song was that for me.....

...for 12 years...

Sweet Relief, at last.

It is a frightening truth that a lot of the lyrics seem more like prophecies than simply songs. Maybe Killing Joke are more important in this troubled times than any time before.

The anthem for the Disunited Kingdoms Post-Brexit. It's gonna be soo Mad Max, I can't wait.

"extinction seems to be a plausible risk"......K.J knew it all in 1994....

Awesome Fear Factory covered this master piece

They kinda butchered it imo but I love FF

Pandemonium and Democracy seem to be such overlooked albums. They're 2 of their best ones.

Totally agree

Bestrafe mich, Bestrafe mich))

Truly awesome
Love the crunching chords and Killing Joke are a fucking awesome band

Killing Joke......a gateway into brilliant musical insanity.

Jaz even LOOKS like Mel Gibson in this. Uncanny.

Это так ахуенно..

Бля, хоть один русский тут...

Goodbye

megadeth + rammstein, they were ahead of their time

Oh my friend, if only you knew of the mighty Prong.

New metal in 1.994

For some reason I can see Motorhead doing this as a cover. I can hear Lemme Kilmeister do this!!

Jaz Coleman has the 2000 years stare.

rip roaring tune which will always be synonymous with the start of the 21st century

Got a love like blood for this song.

Epic am I right?

You are correct Eboni ;)

Headbangers Ball anyone? 😁

Yep definitely saw them there first now I'm a big fan of theirs

Suban la canción a spotify please !!

Like Rammstein before the Rammstein

Die Krupps were Rammstein before Rammstein. Their "II The Final Option" album was released around 1993, way before Rammstein were popular.

Yep. Many people think Rammstein mostly borrowed from Ministry, but to me this song is the blueprint for the sound they achieved.

Muse doesn't happen without Killing Joke either

Stuff basic people say

@Adrian Frey Neither does Fear Factory 😉

25 años an pasado de cuando escuché esta canción por última vez !!

I wonder is the guitar the one Geordie normally uses or a Gibson? It sounds quite fruity/bouncy like the es 295 but heavier.

Top of the pyramid

*Millennium

Cmon, someone do a Fury Road mashup with this song

I ve never paid attention to this band. Shame on me! They are very original! I ll dig a bit into their records. Thanks for uploading this Kind of treasures, in these days when Rock is a "Joke" alone.

Gracias al cover de Fear Factory conocí esta rola... y ahora soy muy Fan de Killing Joke!!! 🤘🏽🤘🏽

...BELIEVE we can turn it around

Who’s here from The Bigs?

Always thought this would of been a great tune to bring in the new millennium on new year's 1999... nobody listened.

I WAS listening to this. Looking over the cityscape of Amsterdam from my hotel suite while getting blown by Swedish fraternal twins (one female) on the night of the REAL Millenium, NYE 2000.

And all alive shall salute!

better than robbie williams shite

Infuluenced so many bands ...awesome!

I can feel a little touch of "War Pigs" on this songs... fucking great!

As in.. Sabbath's War Pigs?

you are a Jokester, you might like DANNY PRICE & THE BLOOD MONEY. if you do you can download our album for free on bandcamp

Used to play on nighttime mtv all the time in the 90s.

what songs did you do?

no better song ,,,,

great song great band, fear factory do a great cover of this.

I made it. I finally found this song after years and years of never remembering the name of the song or band. I head banged so hard to this when I was younger. I'm so happy to hear it again! wine back old friend. 🤘

Kevin Hollerbach me too

same hear

Dude! I was the same! I couldn't for the life of me remember who sung this. For some reason I kept thinking it was by My Bloody Valentine lol.

One of my other fave bands covered this great song

@Shane Murphy I like Fear Factory, but they stripped this song down to nothing. Where's the synths and keyboards?

Who else first saw this on Rock Video Monthly?

Nah... I saw it on Dave Kendals 120 Minutes!!!!

The bigs

I feel bad about my best Rammstein song, 'Bestraffe Mich' main riff is a rip off of Millennium. ..clearly

Rammstein never had anything original.

As much as I love Rammstein it's true. These guys were making industrial metal back in 1978 long before anyone else.

This song was recorded inside the great piramyd in giza :o

that was Exorcism.

Pandemonium, Exorcism and Millenium were recorded in the King's Chamber.

I was 12 yrs old and I recorded it with a TDK tape from Walgreens, listened like 4hrs of radio until it came on. K.J rules!

I used to do that shit too. I got a SHIT LOAD of drug store tapes (audio AND VIDEO) with nothing but music and anime on them. Lol!

Is there a non-commercial version

Sounds like Zep's "Kashmir" played in Mental Asylum

"Kashmir" and BS "War Pigs" xd

great beat, but as usual, filled with the same wiccan, beelzebub bullshit....leading to the confusing NOWHERE LAND

MAD MAX!!!

Such a great song.

Still great. :p

Strangely enough, with everything going on in the world today, this song's probably more meaningful today than when it was first written. End of the world, here we come!

yep. we live the most peaceful times in human history.

Obviously, all of the end of the world predictions have been right so far. I'll take yours seriously.

Y2K FLU VIRUS N FX

it is now easy for me to hear where Amebix filtered some inspiration from

New years eve trolling for music and this gave me such a massive fucking 90s flashback. Love this track. Btw, it was preceded by Murderous by Nitzer Ebb. The volume knob is just a hair below the pain limit. I am so fucking with my neighbours tonight...

OK jaz here we are....
.

36 years of music heaven.

Che bravi ..adesso musica dove la trovi.....bò datemi Voi un consiglio.....

Now how is it I hadn't heard these guys before?

Tú Super!

shame.but never too late

I'm seeing them in a couple days. Been listening to them since the '80s. First show in like a decade for me.

Sick!!!

Tack fina Eva! ❤️😃

both this and the fear factory versions are kickass
 although i do like burtons voice a little more :P

@Fox Mccloud I am a bit biased, but I have to agree, I think FF pulls it off a bit better, though they kind of have different feels. I honestly thought it was a FF original when I first heard it, it fits perfectly in the Transgression album.

its on their transgression album

@*****
you're welcome

I will def check out fear facts version, now. Cheers.

Please make more stuff

Please mak more songs like dis
.)

GREAT SONG!!!!!

Not really the type of music I listen to. But Killing Joke make it so hypnotic!! Fucking great band

ECW. Events theme

THE BIGS

OH MY GODDDDDD!!!! OP

?.. Please explain

this song at maximum volume is better than cocaine :)

The only thing that is better than cocaine is to stop it(for good) Trust my words. ;)

Music > Drugs

¿Porque no los dos?

LezOrg All cocaine users should be targets for retroactive genepool maintenance. Nacht und nebel and Aktion T4 should apply to all of them. Bojo and Gove and co, I'm looking at YOU.

imagine them together :)

Didn't Robbie Williams cover this song? (jk)

fear factory

hey maw put them taters on ....lets rock

A high school favorite

Their best album, and the one that got me into them way back in '96.

I'm not a big aggressive heavy metal music fan but this song is incredible. There's actually an arrangement to the music and the singing is intense. "Taste the salt of my tears...take the wealth of my years..." oh yeah.

Love it

Fear factory's version sounds way better, but I like this one too

KJ's opus magnus....timeless and Badass

One of my all time favs!!!!! Thanx for posting!!

Some people comparing Killing Joke to Rammstein??? Go get some culture!

Christopher Knowles brought me here.

Kiwi...? They're English.
