Ministry compilation/remix CD on Cleopatra, June 5 2012

[reply]gunnar, please invent names for the next 3 mixxxalbums, because these are ridiculous.

“To commemorate Ministry coming out of retirement after 4 years (during which time more albums were released than ever before) Cleopatra is proud to release these special commemorative albums. Limited or course to pressings of 23,000, 69,000, 666,000 or whatever other stupid symbolic sort of meaningful number they decide to arbitrarily choose. All releases will be priced at $13.13 per song and each album will have 13 songs on it and no you cannot purchase songs separately from the albums so fuck you.”

TriXXX are for KiddZZ – Ministry presents childrens’ versions of all your classic ZZ Top songs. A must buy for any parent to teach their children about the awesomeness that is Ministry.

ChiXXX with DiXXX – Ministry presents an aggro industrial trance-metal MiXXX of 13 of their favorite songs by the Dixie Chicks. Buck who? This is balls-out heavy western.

CheXXX Party MiXXX – Ministry presents 13 tracks made up entirely of Ice Cube’s sample “Chiggity Check Yo’self Before You Wreck Yo’self” and Erie Load makes them into dance floor super hits.

TJ MiXXX – Ministry takes all the shitty songs you hear playing in the TJ Maxx and makes them extra badass by playing them louder and faster and also faster and louder and well, they’re really loud. A must buy for any collector.

Bundles will be offered shortly . . . .[/reply]

Did anyone get the email from 13th planet saying stickers are now available? or their new tshirts?

Cleopatra is capitalism gone wrong.

Even their cheerleaders are square: http://youtu.be/blQmgusV40M

that being said, i feel as though it should be noted that the buffalo tabasco is also fairly killer.

i also want to make a joke about this being the hottest thread on prongs in a while, but i feel like it would be too cheesy. so i will just lay out the pieces of the joke for you all here. [laugh]

I do. [:(]

why?! just an obsessive collector eh?

yes, if it gets released on CD I must possess it.

even so…there can’t be THAT many of you!

You would think not and I wish they would stop releasing them. I have well over 100 ministry cds.

I love the description of the Sirracha burn… Too true.

Sriracha is wonderful.

I’m surprised you can’t find it in Abu Dhabi. Surely the Filipinos should have some back alley hook ups available.

I think when this CD comes out, the only remaining “official” Ministry tracks lacking a physical release will be the two “Double Tap” remixes, but I could be wrong.

The Double Tap remixes are on the Japanese release of Relapse.

So they are. I don’t even really want these remixes, but it always pisses me off when bands make CD bonus tracks not available in their home country.

The reason Japanese releases always have extra tracks is that apparently domestically produced CDs are very expensive there for some reason - it’s actually cheaper to buy the import. To counter this, the labels in Japan always include bonus tracks.

In this case, if you really want the remixes (I don’t recommend them) they’re available as digital downloads everywhere else in the world, which is a lot more than some bands do (and better than Ministry has done in the past - I don’t think “I Want You/She’s So Heavy” was ever released anywhere but Japan).

I’ve heard the excuse, but I still don’t think it’s fair to the rest of the world.

And why do American bands go along with it? Japanese CD retailers might make more money selling a special Japanese edition, but I don’t see why Ministry would make more money that way than if all the Japanese fans just bought the US import.
