Murder Inc – Murder Inc – Vinyl Record
Following yet another temporary breakup in the early ’90s, the members of the eternally volatile Killing Joke re-formed (minus vocalist Jaz Coleman) under the Murder Inc. banner. Including Revolting Cocks vocalist Chris Connelly, guitarist Geordie Walker, bassist Paul Raven, and drummers Paul Ferguson and Martin Atkins (ex-PiL), the band conspired to record 1992’s eponymous LP for independent Invisible Records.
Murder Inc is the self-titled debut album by the American industrial rock band Murder Inc, released in 1992. Murder Inc was a short-lived side project formed by members of the industrial rock band Killing Joke, including guitarist Geordie Walker and bassist Paul Raven, along with vocalist Chris Connelly.
The album Murder Inc features a blend of industrial, rock, and metal elements, with heavy guitar riffs, electronic textures, and aggressive vocals. The lyrics often explore themes of societal decay, corruption, and violence, reflecting the band’s name and the dark, dystopian atmosphere of their music.
Key tracks from ‘Murder Inc’ include ‘Mania,’ ‘Supergrass,’ and ‘Hole In The Wall,’ which showcase the band’s dynamic sound and confrontational lyrical style.
Despite its relatively short lifespan, Murder Inc left a lasting impact on the industrial rock scene, influencing subsequent bands with their intense and uncompromising approach to music. The self-titled album ‘Murder Inc’ remains a cult classic among fans of industrial and alternative rock.
