i actually laughed out loud when reading that bit of maybe sort of perhaps in the future" news"
yeah, i agree. besides, even if it will be released, it wouldn’t be the same pailhead we all know, right? i mean, revco is totally different… hell, even ministry is. so i guess that’s best left alone… at least don’t fuck up the less known sideprojects…
at least don’t fuck up the less known sideprojects…
true dat.
will do some “fact checking’” on whether or not pailhead project is/was/in some fantasy is going to be.
I wonder if there will be a Cover Up Remix. Or maybe a cover of remixed dance songs from other artists. Covers and remixes? Very weak.
But seriously, I can’t blame Al for trying to make a living… he only has a few good years left as far as “rocking out” goes so he might as well get it out of his system and make whatever money he can. Even if it sucks he isn’t losing much by trying and we don’t have to buy it if we don’t like it.
agreed…Although we are unhappy with Al’s work lately, you must admit he’s been working his ass off for the past 4 yrs.
From the mp3.com interview:
"…as was most evident on 1989’s The Mind is a Terrible Thing to Taste, which featured a stunningly good cover of Skinny Puppy’s “Burning Inside”

another one.
This is annoying, but I never can remember, was “I Will Refuse” aka “Stick” a RevCo outtake? I saw that Stick is on Initials C.C. (which I still don’t have), but wasn’t sure if Chris wrote it, or if it was a LORAH leftover, or a Black By Popular Demand castoff… Someone please set me straight once and for all.
This is from the online Initials CC liner notes:
"Is this Revolting Cocks? I don’t know, but it was the first thing I ever recorded with Al and this was recorded about two hours after I first met the guy. I had visited the WaxTrax! office in London to try and drum up interest in Fini Tribe. I was already a fan of the “Big Sexy Land” record by the Cocks, and when I heard that Al was in the studio downstairs, I asked if I could meet him. Upon meeting him, he immediately suggested going to the pub - this was about 11 in the morning. By 5 PM, I was layering vocals on what would eventually become “I Will Refuse” by Pailhead, with the wonderful Ian Mackay singing. No one seems to remember the exact personnel on this recording (gleaned here from a very cheap cassette - the only document of this song) but Bill Rieflin thinks it is just he and Al, with Roland Barker on sax. After I was done, a very drunk Connelly had to run to catch the Tube to take me to the bus, which was leaving to go back up north to Scotland. Kind of a perfect ending to a beginning…
Thanks for that. I think I’ve read that before, too! Interesting tidbit.

everyone needs to make a living. that said, if al’s too tapped out, why not go back to writing jingles.(stop laughing)anyone recall the shasta commercial? c’mon, mothersbaugh did pee wee’s playhouse. i’m being serious. al’s got that gift of the thirty seconds, and then he turns it over to everyone else to flesh it out.
um… i forgive al for the latest ministry.
it IS yom kippur.
but please get some direction that makes sense.
Mothersbaugh also scored the Rugrats cartoon, which my daughter loves. I’d say that’s valid.
i’ve seen al at his best and undeniably worst.this is worse than many years of bad. i’m in an unenviable position.
Did you see him during the FilthPIg tour? I did and thought at that time he’d be dead soon. Yet during those few seconds he looks very healthy on YouTube. I dunno why some of you are getting uptight by him just dicking about and having a laugh, are you actually taking it seriously? Does it matter anyway? Is it cos he looked cooler when on drugs?
I was thinking Al looks better lately. in 96 & 99…Al was zombie like.
yeah and if anybody saw him live or off stage somewhere, they’d all say pretty much the same thing - Al seems to be in great health nowadays. which is great! i am sure heroin had something to do with the great music Al created back in the day but I would never wish for the habit to get the better of him. he’s most likely quite lucky to be alive…
in 96 & 99…Al was zombie like.
I thought it was generally agreed that around that time Zombie was looking Al like.
[rimshot]
Sorry…
Yeah, this is a guy who had a special mic-stand with a motorcycle seat attached to it built so he could sit down during shows, and now he’s actually spending time on stage RUNNING.
I think being a goof for a few seconds on an internet spot is hardly grounds for a medical diagnosis, no matter how well someone knew him back in the day.

haha not too bad.
ok,i’m wrong about al’s current youtube offerings.never looked or sounded better or healthier.guess i was looking way too closely at my own navel.
what an utter ass i am to have an opinion based upon being upfront and personal for the better part of a couple of decades.yeah, i think now’s the time to initiate the ass parade for all the (bad)asses who like me actually gave a shit BACK WHEN. time to get my walker out and the shriner’s mini car. i have quite a few of those fezs you know. some people collect art, but the fez is where it’s at.half a dozen on the closet shelf. anyone want to join in?they’re all that signature maroon with various masonic emblems and chains and such.stars. you get the picture.
geez.
