Reload and Brick Windows are still great tracks, I always enjoyed The Game Show and Useless as well. The Dylan cover of 'Lay Lady Lay' is a little odd but fits well in the disc. I can definitely understand why the album got the reaction it did from longtime fans as well as the press, I just didn't happen to be in either camp when I got my hands on it back in the day. |
I feel pretty much the exact same way about that album, but I personally think their best album is Dark Side of the Spoon and that album is almost universally panned. I got into Ministry with Filth Pig, but they became an all-time favorite with Dark Side of the Spoon.
Best Ministry song ever:
