[kj] Killing Joke: Clash influenced?

[bongo]

the clash fuckin RULED, janie jones was one of the first real songs i ever
fell in love with...
i've listened to both bands (clash and kj) alot, for a long time, and cant
say ive heard any similarities, but haven't had my ear in listening for any
either... STRAIGHT TO HELL is one powerful fuckin song any way ya look at
it, and there are many others.  i can see why some dont like the clash - but
to deny them the honour they deserve is just wrong!
