If he’s not going to use a drummer, at least he could get creative with the drum sounds. It’s the same damn standard rock sample kit every time. Apart from the lyrics that’s the other thing that bothered me about the Bush albums (the second two. Houses ((and I guess some of RGB)) had real drums and it shows).
I’m somewhat disappointed to hear the same crap and no drummer but I’m hopeful.[tongue]

I bet Al’s read more books than those dudes too, and can beat them all in Scrabble.

Probably a master at chess too. Book club probably couldn’t handle him in checkers either. All hail the mighty jourgensen!

Yes! If you’re not going to use real drums at least try to be creative with the sounds! Al used to be thought of as one of the masters of crazy electronic drum sounds, now it just sounds (as you’ve said) that he just picks the generic “hard rock” drum kit from protools or whatever the fuck he’s using, not even bothering to tweak it or anything! I wonder now if “the book club” was responsible for much of the crazy drum sounds on the older records.
[reply]Nothing in that video remotely resembles ANYTHING I ever liked about Ministry. .
Bunch of tattooed “noo metallers”. Disgraceful.
Was this always his “vision” for Ministry? Tough guy buttrock?!?

Yes, we get it Al, you’re not the boy george-looking, new-wave, disco-pop, eurosynth fag that you used to be, you’re a tough guy now who sits around getting pierced and tattooed with a bunch of other geriatric looking, overweight biker types (kinda ghey when you think about it), air-drumming in the studio while Mikey plays solo’s over your generic rock beats!
It’s like the man went from one cliche to another… The bad joke just will not end!
Sits around all day under a nice patio umbrella with nice ceramic tiles on the ground a nice white fence surrounding them. with a nice shed in the back yard.
hard core! [:)]
I think I’d rather even have a reunited Black Sabbath studio album than this buttrock shite from Al. What was the point of the C-U-Latour?
Oh well, no one will buy it anyway.
I don’t know if anyone else will agree with me, but it seems like Mikey’s really steering the ship and I’d go so far as to say that it seems like Ministry’s his baby. Well, at least in terms of the amount of effort and enthusiasm he seems to be putting in.
Al looks like he doesn’t want to be there. He’s tired and clearly ‘doesn’t give a fuck what the fans think’.
Well, buddy, you should.
Miley at the helm, dragging ol’ grampa jourgensen around could be a good thing. Possibly… Funny though how Al says the generic “heaviest album ever” and mikey contradicts it.
And there’s an actual difference between a sabbath reunion and ministry? Both have old guys who haven’t released anything really good in years. Ozzy, more particularly. Al at least wrote good stuff in the 90s.

Funny, I know it wasn’t intentional but I saw it as this:
Heh. I’d hit it. I blame auto-correct though.
I’d rather Miley than Mikey. In bed, that is. But probably also in relation to a new album.
I reject it and maybe my Ministry “fan” status too.
You just maybe reject your “fan” status? Go to hell fanboi. You’re just not hardcore enough for this site.
Oh well, no one will buy it anyway.
You know grmpy will, he can’t help himself! Probably buy all of the variants too! What an asshole!
I just can’t stop collecting. I should be on hoarders for ministry.
Late,
grmpysmrf
I’m sure I’ll buy it.
I even plan on buying Buck Satan. That’s next week, right?
If Miley Ray Cyrus’ pelvis worked like Mikey’s wrist, we’d all be extremely happy gentlemen.
is it just me or does al look annoyed in the studio when mikey is playing one if his riffs? i could be off but it looks like al looks at the camera bewildered and he finally turns to mike with a wtf tone and asks him if the whole thing is open notes.
