My Life With The Thrill Kill Kult - Confessions Of A Knife

For this week's #WaxTraxFriday article, appropriately for My Life With The Thrill Kill Kult's second article, we're featuring their second album Confessions Of A Knife released on the 15th March 1990. The second album produced some fantastic tracks/singles including Kooler Than Jesus, The Days Of Swine And Roses and Ride The Mindway. There are USA and European test pressing LPs for the album plus a really collectable American white vinyl LP (anyone got this that can submit pictures for us?). The album has been reissued by Wax Trax! Records/TVT (1993), Rykodisc (2004) and most recently in 2016, digitally via the band's own SleazeBox Records label including availability in hi-res WAV format.
