And later Kneill Brown was in a band with Dean from Extreme Noise Terror. And the label selling point was "members of Killing Joke and ENT".
I did not even bother.

I love all three reunion studio albums even if I think Pylon is the relatively weakest of the bunch (which is like saying which Led Zep album is their weakest). There's always some nitpicks like how wonky the Pledge projects seem to pan out or how the "pick your rare song" poll seems to have been ignored but in the big scheme of things, the band is still riding a quality and creative high that virtually any other band still together approaching their fourth decade can't even come close to approaching.
