De grens tussen metal en punk is niet altijd scherp te trekken, soms lopen de genres in elkaar over. Het mooiste voorbeeld daarvan is wat mij betreft nog steeds de debuutelpee van Killing Joke, met zijn fusie van metal, punk en pre-industrial. Veel geïmiteerd (o.a. door Ministry), nooit geëvenaard.
Motives changing, day to day,
The fire increases, masks decay.
I look at the river, white foam floats down,
The body’s poisoned, gotta sit tight. The wait, the wait, the wait, the wait.

I look at the river, white foam floats down,
The body’s poisoned, gotta sit tight. The wait, the wait, the wait, the wait.
After wakening, silence grows,
The screams subside, distortion shows.
Mutant thoughts of bad mouthed news,
Is just another birth of distorted views.
The wait, the wait, the wait, the wait.
The wait, the wait, the wait, the wait.
