Pandemonium is an album first released in June 1994 by Killing Joke under the Zoo label.
This album marked Killing Joke's return after a four year long hiatus, the longest the band has taken since it was initially founded. This album also featured the return of a founding member, as Youth replaced Paul Raven on bass guitar.
The screaming descending guitars of the title track, as well as the brooding "Communion" and the hyper-charged "Whiteout," would become live staples. A remastered CD with "Another Cult Goes Down" and an experimental dub remix of "Pandemonium" was released in 2005 by Cooking Vinyl.
The album was described in its five-K Kerrang! review as "a jagged black cathedral of sound".
