[kj] [KJ] Killing Joke "Rawk"

[Leigh Newton]

Sorry, what is the difference, specifically, between Rock and Rawk? I thought "rawk" was just a term hipsters and indie rock gaylords threw around in an effort to give rock music some sort of bullshit irony cuz they were afraid to admit that they genuinely like shit like Van Halen and Metallica.

I listened to the first 5 studio albums today and could not find any "Rawk" in any of them. Am I missing something while listening to these fine works? I dont remember Jaz in spandex or Geordie with a V-neck guitar although I remember Big Paul having a somewhat large drum kit. What "rawk" bands from the 80's shared the Joke's sound? It seems to me fans who come to the Joke from a "rawk" background hear something I don't. I once knew an ELO fan who belived they inspired house music! He was a wrong and so are many of you IMO.
