I hope it comes in a standard jewel case instead of those crappy digipaks!
Late,

Some of you guys take this stuff way too seriously.
Bingo! But, doesn’t that happen alot when fans are passionate about music they love? Or is that just the nature of forums in general? I don’t care, so there. Not my bag, this mixxo-whatever…
My gripe right now is not being able to find my copy of LORAH. [:(]

Heard ‘The Mind…’ two days after my 21st birthday back in 1990…and was floored. It was everything I was looking for in an album (except Test of course). Checked out ‘Land Of…’ a few weeks later (the shop assistant saw my ‘Mind Is A Terrible Thing…’ shirt and asked me if I had heard their previous album) and to my surprise it was even better. ** I had pretty much the same experience…lol. 20 years…damn!
My major gripe with all the new albums
Is how cheap
And tinny they sound.
That fucking electronic drum sound. It’s not even like the fat snare-bass sound they used to have on the old recordings. Now it all just sounds like absolute turd.
Why? I don’t understand. How fucking hard up are they that they don’t keep with a decent session drummer, or just try and keep experimenting sound to not only stay fresh, but maybe strike gold here and there?
Fuck
I assume it’s just cheaper/faster to use the fake drums.
I hate it too - electronic percussion has its place, but in more or less straightforward metal songs it just sounds off. I think people would have a (slightly) higher opinion of the last few Al releases if he’d just taken the extra time to put in real drums (except when it’s obviously a dancefloor song like “I’m Not Gay”).
i’d never thought that this would be happening. i mean, six years, come on. also, totally agree with 1002.
i guess he had that bush trilogy, now he wants a bush remix trilogy? why, you can like, issue a box set of it all on 6 cds, to sell that whole thing for a third time!!
but all that and what has been already said… six years. i have not a slightest clue why are they releasing this.
I assume it’s just cheaper/faster to use the fake drums.
Cheaper, yes. Faster… dunno about that. You’re not all that familiar with black metal, are ya? [;)]
Faster to RECORD, not faster to play!
I MEANT FASTER TO SACRIFICE BABY LAMB-GOATS
ya dig?

That’s a really cool site - thanks for the heads up.[/reply]
That IS a really cool site… which happens to be ViSavage’s, if I’m not mistaken.

You’d figure someone like that’d get our M.O., but fuck it.
Prongs.org: We Love Ministry. WE FUCKING HATE MINISTRY.
Back on topic… Mole’s hit and miss as it is. I don’t wanna hear it get mangled.
Oh, and if you guys were wondering…
Eerie from Blownload did all of the remixes on the new Mole remix. I’m just hoping it’s not going to sound like that Prison Ready remix. [crazy]
I’d grab the link, but I figured you guys wouldn’t care anyways, it’s on the Blownload twitter.
Wow, the Blownload dude remixing the album, I bet all you guys are going to now eat your words about this being a shitty cash grab remixed by non-talent hacks!*
*it’s actually a shitty cash grab remixed by a no-talent hack (singular, not plural)
Well, that’s disappointing.
I was hoping for an FLA mix, considering Al’s recent association with them.
I’ll probably buy the album just for the cover, though.
Forgot that Clayton left too. Who knows, maybe the other guy’s a better remixer than a musician. It happens…
Blownload!? You have got to be kidding. It amazes me at how little effort is being put behind this project. Even Ministry isn’t commenting on it.
Sad…
Shit’s actually fucked
It makes me want to forget Ministry
From 13th Planet:
Ministry’s 2004 release “Houses of the Molé” and corresponding world tour The Evil Doer Tour were both met with critical praise and adulation from both media critics and Ministry fans worldwide.
Molé and the Evil Doer Tour was a return to form for Ministry main man and founder Al Jourgensen, and both served to re-instate Ministry into the upper echelons of industrial metal. Additionally, Molé was to become the first installment of Jourgensen’s political trilogy of terror toward the Bush Administration and the Gulf War.
As much as Molé’s title was a tongue-in-cheek reference to Led Zeppelin’s Houses of the Holy and Jourgensen’s favorite Mexican sauce, it was surely no Southwestern rock n’roll cookbook.
“MiXXXes of the Molé”, however, serves to pick up where Molé left off – each re-recorded, re-mixxxed and re-mastered track spicier than the next.
The fifth in a series of 13th Planet remixes this genre-bending “trance metal” attack, “MiXXXes of The Molé” is destined for dance floors all over the world with its punchy metal grooves and way-too-heavy bass lines determined to mosh with the best of solar plexus in the country.
I cringed when I got that e-mail.
The $25 bundle looks like a pretty good deal, for anyone who still needs to pick up the Rio Grande Blood vinyl.
I’m still trying to figure out how cleopatra is involved with this project.
