Honestly With … Honestly With Sympathy is hit and miss. Revenge and Effigy are both classics, but most of the album is pretty cheesy and dated.
However the earlier singles and especially the entirety of Twitch are fantastic. Twitch will always be my favorite Ministry LP hands down! They managed to capture that Belgian EBM sound, but give it even more balls.
Al is gonna have … Al is gonna have songs about the NWO and Bush senior, Jr. SO HES AGAINST THE NWO BUT THINGS ARE ALL BETTER NOW FOR AL BECAUSE OBAMA IS PRESIDENT.
SOUNDS TO ME LIKE HES EITHER CONFUSED, IGNORANT OR HE WAS JUST MAKING MUSIC FOR YOUR MONEY BECAUSE YOU FOLLOW THE FAD TOO!
Ministry used to be … Ministry used to be so cool. I miss the “Mind is a Terrible Thing to Taste” days.
He needs to just get over the first album thing.
He’s bullshiting, … He’s bullshiting, he’s like a tuff guy and he says that some in record label made him do the record With Sympathy?? What kind of crap is that? There is evidence here on Youtube that he played LIVE all of his material from With Sympathy album which is great, so why did he did that? Because he disliked it? Who made him play live?
lol i remember that … lol i remember that! it had a hand with black nail polish and some flowers..red roses right? that was soo long ago! i agree with you..i’m a Ministry fan..regardless..
hey kids, how many … hey kids, how many rockers do you need telling you that they “found out” the music “industry” is about hard core capitalism, and they were, like, shocked, like you know? its not about rock or the bullshit music biz… you wanna get liberated, turn off the pretender rock resistance promo, and get a f…king life.
Al can deny it as … Al can deny it as much as he wants. I’m not buying it. With Sympathy is a great album, and I love it as much as I love Psalm 69. What’s wrong with being eclectic?
music fans have … music fans have become extremely jaded and want carbon copies of whatever the band had put out years ago. Since people can get it for free all the excitement is lost. its a shame that the ipod generation has sort of a give a attitude toward music. when you have 8 thousand songs to choose from there isnt a connection like there use to be. all the intense moshing at concerts is gone, now fans are just going through the motions. Ministry FTW (post new wave)
