“‘Under My Thumb’, like The Doors cover ‘Roadhouse Blues’, was about my not understanding the dichotomies involved” says Jourgensen.

“If you listen to the lyrics to ‘Under My Thumb’, it’s the most misogynistic song ever made. I never understood that dichotomy, so I always wanted to tackle it. Same with ‘Roadhouse’ — it’s a blues-based song, yet the lyrics are about driving your car into a wall at full speed, drunk, and not giving a f**k. It’s so much an anarchist anthem, it should’ve been a Sex Pistols song. So, I wanted to approach both tracks with the spirit of the original lyrical intent.”

Since announcing the CULaTouR in late October, additional shows in Spokane, Calgary, Vancouver, Tulsa and Chicago have been added to the routing, with more dates to be announced. You can find these announcements at Ministry’s official web site, and you can also view available ticket’s here.

“We don’t just bitch about Bush and global oligarchies. We’re still a rock band and ‘Cover Up‘ is Ministry’s party album”

said Ministry’s Al Jourgensen about “Cover Up“, recorded by Ministry and ‘Co-Conspirators’. The album was set for an April Fools Day release.

“Cover Up” simply is one of the hottest, nastiest rock ‘n roll albums ever recorded and sees Jourgensen and ‘Co-Conspirators’ as paying tribute to some of the most memorable rock songs as well as to the artists who first laid them down, I.E.:

• DEEP PURPLE,
• T.REX,
• ZZ TOP,
• THE DOORS,
• MOUNTAIN,
• BOB DYLAN,
• THE ROLLING STONES and more.

Playing on the “Cover Up” title, Jourgensen has injected himself into various conspiracy theory photographs throughout the release’s artwork. (Which is why this band is one of my favorites).

In addition to fellow Minstry guitarist Sin Quirin (Revolting Cocks), Jourgensen enlisted an impressive group of ‘Co-Conspirators’ for “Cover Up” which includes:

• Fear Factory frontman Burton C. Bell (also of Ascension of the Watchers) sings on The Rolling Stones‘ - “Under My Thumb“,
• Josh Bradford of the Revolting Cocks‘ provides his bag-pipes for Golden Earring’s -”Radar Love“,
• Prong’s vocalist Thomas Victor lends his vocal skills to the song “Space Truckin” by Deep Purple, just to name a few in this album

Additional ‘Co-Conspirators’ include the late Paul Raven (Ministry, Killing Joke), Tony Campos and Wayne Static (STATIC-X), Edu Mussi (Echoes and Shadows), as well as Plastilina Mosh.

“Cover Up” will also include Ministry’s cover of “Roadhouse Blues” by The Doors which is also found on “The Last Sucker” release of September of last year (2007). All tracks are said to be culminating in Jourgensen’s personal punk rock rendition of Louis Armstrong’s hit; “Wonderful World“.

Klayton

First place was the As Ember mix by Brent Young. A hard-hitting industrial mix full of searing synth manipulations amid fields of ambient bass pads, it’s no wonder this mix won first place, bearing only the slightest resemblance to the original song while staying true to the elements that made “Frozen” so appealing in the first place.

Second place belongs to Copy Paste Repeat’s remix. This remix contains a bombard of caustic break-beats stipulated with vocal glitches that can send many drum & bass fans into a rabid, arm raising frenzy.

Third place went to Skeel’s Mass Panic mix. Ilker Yücel of ReGen Magazine states that Skeel’s remix “recreates the song with an epic heavy metal guitar leads, classically-inspired synth arpeggios, and glitch-laden vocals; if this is an indication of Skeel’s own work, then fans of industrial metal and even progressive metal would do well to check this artist’s original material out.”

I am addicted to Lacuna Coil’s song Cold Heritage! This song has been in my media files for the longest of times, but until recently I have journeyed back to them and feel as if I have discovered a new song!

Now the song starts off slowly with a beautiful solo guitar and then adds a second guitar faintly in the background. Just as this soothing rift grabs the listener’s attention, Christina Scabbia’s soul touching voice enters into her breath taking lullaby. Now enter the drumming beats that would seem to be pure industrial to “kick it up a notch”.

If you think that is the best part of the song, you’ll be in for a surprise that will leave you grinning for the rest of the day.

Not only is Christina Scabbia extremely stunning to watch in concert and very appealing to the eyes, all of that is nothing compared to this muses vocal talent and ear pleasing bliss that would even leave the most hardened psycho biker flat on his back.

Enough of me describing this song, since I can only do it so much justice, so as a result I will let your ears enjoy the ecstasy that I have had during this 5 minute and 30 second song which only the band Lacuna Coil can give birth to.

“Jimmy Urine would get his ass kicked in an Industrial Music Contest by Sister Machine Gun”. – Anonymous Youtube User.

That my friend’s was one of the first things I saw when looking up this glorious band. I thought it was fairly correct and funny, plus, I wouldn’t even consider Mindless Self Indulgence industrial. They’d better be considered EMO if I had my way.

Now Sister Machine Gun has been around for years… and years. I’m not really an avid listener to this band but I do listen to them when I listen to Ministry. These bands are closely classified together and have brought a new feel to the industrial genre.

Now, this music video is hah well nothing less than, normal industrial quality (not very good). Nevertheless, the song is very intoxicating if you understand what the artist is really trying to say. It’s funny how a decent song can always have a shitty video. I guess poets and visual artists really are in their own group despite the fact they both share a common ground.

Imagination.
