The KLF

The KLF (also known as The Justified Ancients of Mu Mu, furthermore known as The JAMs, The Timelords and other names) were a British acid house band of the late 1980s and early 1990s.

Beginning in 1987, Bill Drummond (alias King Boy D) and Jimmy Cauty (alias Rockman Rock) released hip hop-inspired and sample-heavy records as The Justified Ancients of Mu Mu, and on one occasion (the British number one hit single "Doctorin' the Tardis") as The Timelords. The KLF released a series of international hits on their own KLF Communications record label, and became the biggest-selling singles act in the world for 1991. The duo also published a book, The Manual (How to Have a Number One the Easy Way), and worked on a road movie called The White Room.

From the outset, they adopted the philosophy espoused by esoteric novel series The Illuminatus! Trilogy, gaining notoriety for various anarchic situationist manifestations, including the defacement of billboard adverts, the posting of prominent cryptic advertisements in NME magazine and the mainstream press, and highly distinctive and unusual performances on Top of the Pops. Their most notorious performance was a collaboration with Extreme Noise Terror at the February 1992 BRIT Awards, where they fired machine gun blanks into the audience and dumped a dead sheep at the aftershow party. This performance announced The KLF's departure from the music business, and in May 1992 the duo deleted their entire back catalogue.

by: Remembering Never

You won't pass on your bitter blood
I'll spend my every breath to undo the damage done
Your mistake will be just your mistake
Nothing more
You won't tie us to your dead and sinking
We don't relive the bigotry
We won't relive the lies
We won't relive a dead standard of old times
The proof is in the actions of the past
Who is the (real) enemy is the question that should be asked
But it's impossible to change the past
We're out for blood
For every ill-fated lie
Morality's suicide
Put a gun to your head
You're better off dead
Better off dead
You won't pass your bitter blood
I'll spend my every breath to undo the damage done
Your mistake will be just your mistake
Nothing more
You won't tie us to your dead and sinking
We don't relive the bigotry
We won't relive the lies
We won't relive a dead standard of old times
The proof is in the actions of the past
Who is the (real) enemy is the question that should be asked
But it's impossible to change the past
Let it be left in the past
You aren't even a memory
