The Hot Press Newsdesk, 13 Sep 2010

Killing Joke are set to play their first Irish show in over a decade this October at the Button Factory, Dublin.

The highly influential rockers will hit the capital as part of their European tour to promote their forthcoming studio album Absolute Dissent, due out later this month.

The release of Absolute Dissent marks the 30 year anniversary of the band’s formation. The album and tour feature Killing Joke's original line-up of Jaz Coleman, Kevin 'Geordie' Walker, Martin Ferguson, and Martin 'Youth' Glover.

Tickets, from €22.50 (including booking fee), for the Wednesday, 13 October show, are available now from www.ticketmaster.ie and usual outlets nationwide.
