Josef K







Has anyone ever heard of this group? I've been into them last year after downloading some tracks of theirs. It's good stuff. smile Reminds me of some of the other great Post-Punk music of that era.

By the way, Josef K was a Post-Punk band from the early 80's formed by Paul Haig and Malcolm Ross in Scotland. If you're into bands like Wire, Gang of Four, Joy Division, The Fall, etc. then you will definitely like this band. nod

Franz Ferdinand are big fans too. nod

I've been looking for their albums recently at the local shops but to no avail.Luckily, I picked up another obscure post-punk band's album The Sound & I've been obsessively listening to their stuff.NWF, I'm sure you'll like this band as well.They're like a combination of Joy Division & Echo & the Bunnymen w/ a hint of early U2.

Isn't Josef K the main character in Franz Kafka's "The Trial" and "The Castle"
and quite a few of his stories?

Did they take their name from that?
and true love lives on lollipops and crisps
