Ministry

[GHOST IN THE RUINS]

I rediscovered Ministry on my last trip to London / Tattoo convention, where several tracks were played loud in the lounge area.
This band rocks big time!

any opinions around?

Psalm 69 is great, but I've never been able to get into their other stuff. It may be a nostalgia thing, since my oldest brother used to have Psalm 69 on a lot when I was growing up.

Musically, not really my cup of tea. I liked "Lieslieslies" and tried to get into them but nothing else ever really stuck.
Personally, I find it a bit weird to implement a personal political opinion so vigorously in music. Not that I disagree, but it's not really what Im looking for in music, nor what Im used to. Plus I find it makes the music more repetitive and it gets boring quicker.
Maybe someone has suggestions as to what could get me interested in them more, otherwise I dont think I'll go back

I agree with Rusty concerning Psalm 69. Just the other day I was listening to their latest cover records, and I was thinking that I do like their sound quite a bit, but there never seems to be a lot of effort to add variety to the music. Not even when the songs are some other band's.
