“Fuck the Millennium” or “***K the Millennium” is an electronic protest song that was released as a single in 1997 by 2K (Bill Drummond and Jimmy Cauty, better known as The KLF or The Justified Ancients of Mu Mu). Based upon The KLF’s acid house track What Time Is Love?, it was promoted as a comeback single and released to mark the tenth anniversary of Drummond and Cauty’s first collaborations. It remains the only commercial release by the duo since The KLF’s 1992 retirement. The single reached #28 in the UK Singles Chart.
Drummond and Cauty’s campaign to “fuck the millennium” also involved an appearance by 2K at London’s Barbican Arts Centre and a number of outlandish proposals to ‘commemorate’ the millennium under the moniker “K2 Plant Hire”. These activities were intended to culminate in the construction of “The People’s Pyramid”, a 150 foot-high structure built from recycled bricks, but the pyramid was never built.
