"America" is Killing Joke's first single from their seventh studio album, Outside the Gate. It was released by E.G. Records on 18 April 1988. It was the first official single by Killing Joke to be self-produced, after the departure of producer Chris Kimsey.

The single was accompanied by a satirical music video depicting Jaz Coleman as a presidential candidate and dressed as Uncle Sam, in a dystopian scene of the United States.

"America" charted at No. 77 on the UK Singles Chart.[1]
