[kj] Asteroid / Complete Control

[Daniel Corvo]

Can't see it personnally, these two songs are from a different era. Both 
bands were obviously around at the same time, both experimented with Reggae 
etc.. But they went in different directions soon after. Can't see any London 
Calling or Sandinista in a any of the KJ work, can I see any of the earlier 
Clash work? Maybe, but that could be true for a few of the early punk bands.

So if it's not The Clash, who is it? Who is Killing Joke's closest relative?
