I'm 62 and discovered them just six months ago! I got the entire library with no hesitation, and can't find a tune I don't like. I can't start a session without them!
My very abusive boyfriend introduced me to this album back in 1993, not realizing this song would eventually help me build up the escape velocity to get away from him. Despite the anger of the music, it's actually a very warm sentimental song for its meaning to me. Last year I had to move thanks to a belligerent stalking neighbor, but all the depression and anxiety of the Covid lockdown had a paralyzing effect that prevented me from packing. Then I remembered this album and it got me ready in time for moving day! Thank you, Al Jourgensen, for prying me loose from two abusers in my life. We should donate copies of this song to every domestic violence center in the english-speaking world.
What old folks homes are you hanging out in?! The ones I go visit know how to fucking ROCK, headbang, be more than a public nuisance, AND shit ALWAYS goes down-hill and dumps on the sheeple!
I did the same with my daughter, then she introduced to new stuff like death grips and machine girl, she's 23 now, working on her own tunes, like i've also been doing for over 30years... good times, cheers!
Stronger than reason Stronger than lies The only truth I know Is the look in your eyes ...

A long time ago, I spent almost $1,100 on putting in a car stereo just so I could roll down the street playing Ministry, NIN, Thrill Kill Cult, and others. This was...in the early to mid 90's. Can you believe I can still hear okay? I wake up in the morning and am amazed I heard the alarm clock.
omg- can I date you? that's so cool! I saw all 3! Trent R poured champagne on my head, I broke my nose at Ministry's mosh pit, and almost got robbed in Trenton NJ to see TKC!!
This song is a home I recognize . Miss this kind of music from my college days.... Anyone, out there bring this back please. When Industrial and goth meet and it was the release of pain without taking anyone else down. It's your story get through it.
i am 15 years old and when i was in my mothers womb my mother used to blast ministry music right next to her stomach thats why i love ministry so much.
Al Jourgensen did later lament using sampled guitar for this song versus actual guitar. But it still rocks. I used to play this song and Welcome to Paradise (Front242) really loud with the windows down just to piss off the local yocals.
Love it. Makes me wanna shave my head and set fire to a Starbucks. The first rule of listening to Ministry is you don't tell people what you wanna do while listening to Ministry.
I can't help but hold Ministry in reverence for being one of the most dynamic and changing industrial bands which managed to enter the mainstream. THIS is music.
Senser is way more the hip-hop end of things compared to Ministry . not that it's a bad thing , hell I spent my teens with Ministry and Popwilleatitself and KMFDM . Ministry just kept getting heavier every album .
Craziest concert I ever attended. Lollapalooza ‘92 in Miami. Over 100,000 people in the venue and a giant mosh pit about 50 yards across churning like a stationary hurricane in the middle of it. Hot as hell. When we left the concert the radio was telling us we were under an evacuation notice because Hurricane Andrew was heading our way. After an entire day in the broiling sun we decided that we needed sleep and we would worry about the hurricane in the morning. Good times.
I saw them in Mass. in 1992 when the crowd burned down the fence and I think the festival was banned from playing the venue called Great Woods for a couple of years.
I've seen Ministry live 3 times. First in Toronto in '92, then Osaka in '95 & back in Toronto 2 weeks ago. Al absolutely rocked the house every single time. Legend.
There is just something about this old school industrial (rock/metal/___), that I can’t get enough of it. Even after the years, it still sounds futuristic and cyberpunk as fuck.
You might be interested in the "Industrial" music subculture of the late 80s and early 90s. Nine Inch Nails "Head like a hole" comes to mind. They experimented with electronic music and heavy metal.
I still crank Ministry in the car.. been a fan since the 90s. Jesus Built My Hotrod, Just One Fix, Lay Lady Lay, Scarecrow, So What....epic fuckin' music🤘🏻. Rock hard or go home 🤘🏻💜
This was my introduction to industrial music as a kid. I stayed up late and was watching a bad post apocalypse movie. Opening shot is someone with a grinder on metal with this blasting. I'd never heard anything like it before and was hooked.
Back in the old days after robbing a few liquor stores I’d blast this and Thieves & Liars while making my getaway. Times have changed. Now I sell commercial property insurance.
Few bands can put out an album like Twitch and then produce a completely different sound like this. Great album, great song, and very good video. Ministry at their height!
I’m going to be 23 this year and still have yet to find people who love this band around my age outside of a few in online communities. Such a great band and such solid music.
@@halroxdynasty8683 Thank you! Like I said we exist it’s just very hard to find people I’m big into Muse, Korn, Rob/White Zombie, Powerman5000, Filter and NIN. Anything similar in genre to them. I grew up with Coldplay, Metallica, RHCP and the genres of hair/traditional heavy metal coming from outside family, and country/soft rock from my main household. Unfortunately for them I inherited the metalhead genes to some degree.
@@levi_octavian that's awesome hell yah 😎 that's funny you bring up powerman 5000 because I just saw they're playing near me this month lmao. I saw them back in the day for $15 😆 I wanna go again!
For those who don’t know, the distorted sample riff you hear in the chorus is actually a bass guitar run through a heavily saturated distortion amp, and the regular 6-string guitars are used as the back up. Al Jourgensen quite literally made a song that made the bass guitarist the lead guitarist.
I've never had so much fun as trippin' on acid in a little club moshing to Ministry live back in the late 80's 90's. Actually did that a couple of times.
this is still good so love it i saw them at lolapalooza in 1992 with pearl jam,sound garden, the red hot chilli peppers and the Jesus and Mary chain in Barry Ontario Canada it was one of the beat shows ever
i went to lollapalooza that year as well, only in Houston, TX in 100° heat. The pit for ministry was enormous, there were people all across the front of the stage with garden hoses, spraying us down so we wouldn't get heat stroke... definitely one of the best shows I've ever attended.
I saw them when they did a few shows at Lollapalooza 93 with Alice in Chains, Primus, Rage Against the Machine, Fish Bone, Arrested Development and others.
Saw them the same year, the day before hurricane Andrew hit Miami. There was a 9 year old in the pit with me. I sometimes wonder how he is, he was a cool kid.
My cat is grooming herself in rhythm to the beat. Hmmm. Also, Andrea Brown, wherever you are, thank you for introducing me to Ministry in high school! 💕
I don't where I was in the 80's and 90's, but this kind of material just didn't get through the vet-ing system. So glad RUclips presented Ministry to me. Now I will listen to nothing else!!
misery, insanity, relationship, communication, frustration, dilapidation, desperation, shadow oneself, sapping life's energy, each second more of life only a disastrous gift of torturend terror
Man,,,this song takes me so far back....I forgot just how much I love Ministry, Revolting Cocks...and Uncle Al's other projects....I need to write the lyrics down and send them to an ex boyfriend....ha ha ah ha ha ah bah ha,ah,,,,You've ran out of lies!!!!...love the hard drum beat,,,,this is a really good song to boink to....Trust me..
RevCo, Revolting Cocks Ya… how hard up u gotta be to work for some motherfuckers with a name for a group like that, know what I'm talking about? sheeit… named my fave dog RevCo…
I saw Ministry in 92 at Lollapalooza. That day I saw RHCP, Soundgarden, Pearl Jam, Ministry and more. Ministry was the best most insane show by far. They were touring for Psalm 69 and that shit was amazing.
yixxt Why would I be looking for "ex" boyfriends? I'm looking for a new man..But all men LIE!!! So...my next man should be warned...I will do a lot of lying too...ha ha ha..;)
after getting into meth; watching this video after actually doing the self experience itself has me really understanding this, the video, the lyrics. "I could stop if i wanted to" always hives me chills. yes, I'll probably think about my 'just one fix' of meth for years to come. but this song will always guide my head back to the right place, thanks mom for show me ministry. i wouldnt be here without hwr today. ❤
The video shown in Hardware is actually GWAR’s video for Black And Huge. For reasons unknown even today, the director decided that GWAR’s visuals should be accompanied by Ministry audio. The effect was quite powerful, but oh boy did it create a lot of confusion for people who had never heard either band before.
Funny enough, Al and Paul Barker produced Gwar's 'Scumdogs of the Universe', which came out the same year as Hardware. I'm sure that connection has something to do with their appearance in the film.
This song was a real game changer for me. I thought heavy music was just noise but this made me realize it could be catchy and fun as well. A real gateway into a whole world of music I didn't even know existed.
I know I can see elements of what they were gravitating towards even in that polished pop album. I love I’m Not an Effigy and Revenge. The ones with the background singers I’m mot too excited about lol.
For people that are saying Marilyn Mason is a copy of ministry your wrong the only song that sounds like ministry is the riff in Astonishing Panorama of the endtimes
.....this guy, right here, right now !!....possibly one of the best ever, of all time.............................................................luv it to bits, lol, xxx
I bought this Ministry CD in college in the 80's after following the band through its more new wave phase. Little did I know what I was in for when I started playing this in the dorm! I only wish the amplifier would have gone to 11. Anyway, I was into the sound immediately and I even liked the colorful out of focus cover art. It wasn't until some months later, to my horror while sitting in bed, that I looked at the cover from a distance and noticed that it was actually some sort of rotting human skull! Nicely played Mr. Jourgensen!
I could have written this post!! Except I was a fresman in high school when this came out. "With Sympathy" and "Twitch" did not prepare us for the opening seconds of the Land of Rape and Honey album -- omgggg it blew my freaking MIND. And that's the moment that I realized, I didn't want to be normal, ever.
Lollapalooza II bayfront Park Miami 1992 I was there. Outdoor stage. Stand up only. Shoulder to shoulder. The energy was insane. Especially on a hit of acid.😂 good times.
Rob Zombie owes these guys million's ive seen them in 83 or 84 . What's not to love >:) awesome stuff at any age , Ill go down they'll find me dead on the floor jamming! at 101 ! stereo blarring the cat eating my ears.
This is the one that got me into music that was left of the dial...a game changer...and when I saw them at dingy nite club playing this album live...I was forever changed...the way I approached music and listened to it ever since...
First time I heard this was in Richard Stanley's movie Hardware. They had Stigmata playing while Gwar were on the TV screen. 2 great bands for the price of one.
That tormented heroin shooter, Al Jourgenson, was one trailblazer and a creative mastermind. I saw this tour in 1988 at the Avalon theater in Milwaukee. Fuckin' crazy.
1988 FFS. I think it's impossible to comprehend today how ahead of its time this track was on every level. Not just the tune, but the production, the visuals which presaged pretty much every element of the 90s alternative scene. And at a time when the world was mostly listening to Phil Collins, Whitney Houston and Huey Lewis, and the Pet Shop Boys were considered edgy. Wowsers
"From Beer to Eternity" was pretty awesome, too. Thank God Uncle Al is still alive. Don't believe that crap about how the band's best days are way behind them. They're still the Original.
I am 81 years old, use to listen to Ministry back in the day when I was in my 50's. They weren't the "hardest" band but they were all right.
Awesome post.

Ministry at this time was my life
They still are

I relate to this song today better than when it came out 24 years ago. Why? Because life sucks and you're all out of lies and you're all out of time.
Nah it's bc wounds of Christ stigmata.
There is just something about this old school industrial (rock/metal/___), that I can’t get enough of it. Even after the years, it still sounds futuristic and cyberpunk as fuck.

i went to lollapalooza that year as well, only in Houston, TX in 100° heat. The pit for ministry was enormous, there were people all across the front of the stage with garden hoses, spraying us down so we wouldn't get heat stroke... definitely one of the best shows I've ever attended.
I saw them when they did a few shows at Lollapalooza 93 with Alice in Chains, Primus, Rage Against the Machine, Fish Bone, Arrested Development and others.
Saw them the same year, the day before hurricane Andrew hit Miami. There was a 9 year old in the pit with me. I sometimes wonder how he is, he was a cool kid.
donna ly I was there as well!!
donna ly I saw that tour in Denver, freaking awesome
My cat is grooming herself in rhythm to the beat. Hmmm. Also, Andrea Brown, wherever you are, thank you for introducing me to Ministry in high school! 💕
I don't where I was in the 80's and 90's, but this kind of material just didn't get through the vet-ing system. So glad RUclips presented Ministry to me. Now I will listen to nothing else!!
The most perfect song ever in the history of the universe.
misery, insanity, relationship, communication, frustration, dilapidation, desperation, shadow oneself, sapping life's energy, each second more of life only a disastrous gift of torturend terror
Everyone is old regardless... tripping and having a great time back in the day... LOVE this...
I miss the day when using stock footage in a video was cool.
Man,,,this song takes me so far back....I forgot just how much I love Ministry, Revolting Cocks...and Uncle Al's other projects....I need to write the lyrics down and send them to an ex boyfriend....ha ha ah ha ha ah bah ha,ah,,,,You've ran out of lies!!!!...love the hard drum beat,,,,this is a really good song to boink to....Trust me..
RevCo, Revolting Cocks Ya… how hard up u gotta be to work for some motherfuckers with a name for a group like that, know what I'm talking about? sheeit… named my fave dog RevCo…
I saw Ministry in 92 at Lollapalooza. That day I saw RHCP, Soundgarden, Pearl Jam, Ministry and more. Ministry was the best most insane show by far. They were touring for Psalm 69 and that shit was amazing.
I saw them at Lollapalooza 92 in New Orleans. Definitely agree they were the best of that line up-- I was blown away!
Are you looking for future ex boyfriends? I am just asking for a friend.
yixxt Why would I be looking for "ex" boyfriends? I'm looking for a new man..But all men LIE!!! So...my next man should be warned...I will do a lot of lying too...ha ha ha..;)
after getting into meth; watching this video after actually doing the self experience itself has me really understanding this, the video, the lyrics. "I could stop if i wanted to" always hives me chills. yes, I'll probably think about my 'just one fix' of meth for years to come. but this song will always guide my head back to the right place, thanks mom for show me ministry. i wouldnt be here without hwr today. ❤
I had the cassette 🎶💀🌚🖤 88’ High School days in AZ 🌵
My senior year at Dobson at Mesa! Stinkweeds record shop on Guadalupe and Dobson is where I bought this album!
Stigmata video was in the movie Hardware, witch by the way was a great movie.
+LORDGOAT1976 Check out "Death Machine" from the 1990s, like hardware but better.
ok
The video shown in Hardware is actually GWAR’s video for Black And Huge. For reasons unknown even today, the director decided that GWAR’s visuals should be accompanied by Ministry audio. The effect was quite powerful, but oh boy did it create a lot of confusion for people who had never heard either band before.
yes...
Funny enough, Al and Paul Barker produced Gwar's 'Scumdogs of the Universe', which came out the same year as Hardware. I'm sure that connection has something to do with their appearance in the film.
The greatest guitar riff that isn't actually a guitar. A post modern " Whole Lotta Love'. Even when just making toast I have to slam dance.
It’s Christmas Day & I’m enjoying this video,…12-25-2023
Going on 69yrs old but Rock-n-Rolling 🥸👍💙💜💛
Hearing this song again for the first time in 20 years...crazy feeling.
When my dad got back from the war, he was only into Ministry, this video is what saved our connection, pts is real and rrealllly baaad.
This song was a real game changer for me. I thought heavy music was just noise but this made me realize it could be catchy and fun as well. A real gateway into a whole world of music I didn't even know existed.
1st album doesn't actually totally suck. It's just a different genre altogether. "Revenge" is a synthpop classic.
I know I can see elements of what they were gravitating towards even in that polished pop album. I love I’m Not an Effigy and Revenge. The ones with the background singers I’m mot too excited about lol.
Bad ass song! This was my song when I rode my road bike more. You will get down the road pedaling to this. Ministry is great to see live!
Damn this song brings back insane memories!! HELL YES!!!
For people that are saying Marilyn Mason is a copy of ministry your wrong the only song that sounds like ministry is the riff in Astonishing Panorama of the endtimes
.....this guy, right here, right now !!....possibly one of the best ever, of all time.............................................................luv it to bits, lol, xxx
This is not the ministry seminar on the stigmata, but I enjoined it immensely
My 14 YT old daughter doesn’t believe me when I told her I would dance to this song back in the day at Leland City Club in Detroit 🤣😈🤘🏼
Every Saturday night!!
This song was my introduction to Ministry back in the 80's staying up late to watch 120 minutes on MTV.
I bought this Ministry CD in college in the 80's after following the band through its more new wave phase.
Little did I know what I was in for when I started playing this in the dorm!
I only wish the amplifier would have gone to 11.
Anyway, I was into the sound immediately and I even liked the colorful out of focus cover art.
It wasn't until some months later, to my horror while sitting in bed, that I looked at the cover from a distance and noticed that it was actually some sort of rotting human skull!
Nicely played Mr. Jourgensen!
I could have written this post!! Except I was a fresman in high school when this came out. "With Sympathy" and "Twitch" did not prepare us for the opening seconds of the Land of Rape and Honey album -- omgggg it blew my freaking MIND.
And that's the moment that I realized, I didn't want to be normal, ever.
I got endless love for this band and their unique sound. *Alien J.* is God.
Lollapalooza II bayfront Park Miami
1992
I was there. Outdoor stage. Stand up only. Shoulder to shoulder. The energy was insane. Especially on a hit of acid.😂 good times.
Ugh I hate that. You'll just be taking a nap on a pile of rubble and some crazy robot Terminator arm comes along and starts strangling you.
+ludd911 LMAO
+ludd911 ikr
+ludd911 I know what you mean, Mondays are the worst.
+skrapyard444 There's a a difference?
+ludd911 Happens to me all the fucking time. Can't I take a nap on rubble in peace?
One of my all time favorite Ministry songs.
I'm 110 and I just discovered this band and I love it!
Seriously, what went wrong after the nineties?
Damn fine question.
Corporate Pop
jjdecani the plague of occcultism coming back to the surface was inevitable but latter rain will purge thw earth now Shortly
distarted reality.
everything
Rob Zombie owes these guys million's ive seen them in 83 or 84 . What's not to love >:) awesome stuff at any age , Ill go down they'll find me dead on the floor jamming! at 101 ! stereo blarring the cat eating my ears.
Zombie stole his whole image from Al
they are friends
in his book he said he hates rob zombie?!
so did Johnny Depp - he likes to say he got it from Keith Richards, but we all know it was Al.
ga peach he wears a cowboy hat, has those questionable dreadlocks, wears a bandana, and creates halloween anthems. hes a simpsons version of al
Saw this live a few days ago in burgettstown now im completely hooked
Used to drive my mom crazy when I was in a Ministry kind of mood...she would always say it was too loud... ;)
yea i know that feeling
follow it up with some TKK and KMFDM
once my neighbor knocked on my door and asked if i could turn it down cause her pictures were rattling...
Milo Daimen chuck in some Atari teenage riot to :)
forgot all about them they were bad ass too.
This is the one that got me into music that was left of the dial...a game changer...and when I saw them at dingy nite club playing this album live...I was forever changed...the way I approached music and listened to it ever since...
Bought this album back in the 70's, still bumping it today in the 90's!
This album was an hour in the 70s, you silly
10/10 would listen to in taxi
Yeah well I’m a taxi driver and I used to play this while driving around at night. Not in front of the chav customers though
@@greva2904 What are some of your best stories from taxi driving?
I miss these times so much...
First time I heard this was in Richard Stanley's movie Hardware. They had Stigmata playing while Gwar were on the TV screen. 2 great bands for the price of one.
Im getting early Ministry music vibes. Maybe their new wave music isnt dead after all. I like all their genres of music.
That tormented heroin shooter, Al Jourgenson, was one trailblazer and a creative mastermind. I saw this tour in 1988 at the Avalon theater in Milwaukee. Fuckin' crazy.
I don't normally worship MINISTRY -- but when I do...bad things happen...
This was my wedding song
it will be my funeral song
OMFG This killed me!
‘Do you accept this man to be your lawful wedded husband?’
‘Kinda difficult - the priest just feinted’
Lol
Shoulda been mine...
song changed my whole outlook on music and life. amazing still to this day
1988 FFS. I think it's impossible to comprehend today how ahead of its time this track was on every level. Not just the tune, but the production, the visuals which presaged pretty much every element of the 90s alternative scene. And at a time when the world was mostly listening to Phil Collins, Whitney Houston and Huey Lewis, and the Pet Shop Boys were considered edgy. Wowsers
Yes they started a line of copycats for sure..
Saw these guys last May in 2015 and they were so fucking amazing! Glad to have grew up listening to them as well as Skinny Puppy and Front 242
"From Beer to Eternity" was pretty awesome, too. Thank God Uncle Al is still alive. Don't believe that crap about how the band's best days are way behind them. They're still the Original.
Dominique Senecaut Agreed!!!
I also saw them last in May 2015.
fuck yea :)
Saw them in 91 or 92 club 101 el paso.......
Still listening to this song in the 2020 🤘🏻🤘🏻
💉🤯 2021
2024
One of the best music vids ever, black and white you can’t beat...
Anyone else chewing on glass and eating their fingers?
It's whats for dinner
Yeah
Monday night dinner
too hopped up on crystal to eat anything
For you? Any day....
This track changed my life.
Played this video for my wife on our honeymoon in 87/88 (?) Seriously.
Still together...yeah we're're those kinda people... And we still dig this..
I'm beginning to become a fan of this band. Yeah, I know I'm late to the party.
