The Void Report - Ministry Interviews, Stories, & Other Sundry Items

Hey Prongers,

I wanted to share with you a couple of interviews I was lucky enough to do with some current members of Ministry. Both of these guitar players are incredibly cool, down to earth, and humble and gracious about their involvement with the band.

I’ve done some other interviews with past band members and studio engineers as part of a larger project I’m working on. I also have some other interviews scheduled and/or pending with some former members of the band (not K-Lite or who’s that other guy?). When I publish those interviews and/or any other Ministry related content, I will update this thread.

Sin Quirin (Guitar): https://thevoidreport.wordpress.com/2015/09/13/sin-quirin-talks-ministry-2015-and-beyond/

Cesar Soto (Guitar): https://thevoidreport.wordpress.com/2015/09/02/interview-getting-to-know-ministrys-cesar-soto/

If you have any sincere constructive criticism, I would appreciate a private message. Otherwise, have at it! Hope you enjoy, learn something new, or get all worked up about Ministry setlists.

Oh nice man! I actually read the one interview with Sin at lunch today… He shared it on his Facebook. Good read! Great interview!

Solid interviews. [:)] I just wished I liked nu-Ministry more.

great interviews! even though I’m not a fan of the more recent records, I really did enjoy their concert this year and respected the hell out of the band, they put on a great show. great to see them as being down to earth and humble, and also really pushing for older material to be played. they GET it…Al on the other hand…

Calm down, Sean!
They gave you “Lava”!

…well, 10 seconds of it, at least.

Yeah,that was the ultimate prick tease when they did that…I was yelling “YES LAVA” like a fucking idiot for 10 seconds only to be shot down in flames…blue balls ensued…

That being said,I loved that last tour and had a blast at the show I went to…

Thanks for posting these, good stuff.

HAHA!!! Same exact thing here.
I started jumping up and down and riling up my homies. Then 10 seconds later . . . . “Uhhh, yeah, uhhh, false alarm. Sorry 'bout that.”

Great interviews. I love Sin’s enthusiasm for Ministry.

Excellent, i’d actually read these the other day somehow, maybe links from FB? Great articles, Sin is a very nice guy, great to see Cesar Soto enjoying what he does too, both very normal, decent fellows [:)]

Nice work, sir! Do you play guitar yourself, by the way?

They did a few secs of deity too

Was it “Deity”? I remember getting a tease with another one, but I can’t recall which.

Deity or missing they both sound the same to me

Meity? The Dissing?

I was actually just now recalling the riff in my head, but you’re right, it’s really hard to tell one from the other if it’s just a small snippet.

I don’t think I even own “Land of Rape and Honey” anymore. Like Twerk I can’t really listen to the studio versions of those tracks. ICYDFLSU is the definitive Ministry album for me.

It was “The Missing” at the Anaheim show. That’s the one that starts with the pounding drums.

I called Aaron out on FB page the next day about it.

“Deity” starts with guitar noodling.

yep, two cock teases in one night…the place went nuts both times!

I do play a little. Very out of practice.

Whoa, slow down. ICYDFLSU ruined the Mind album for me. Rape & Honey is my definitive Ministry album.

Yeah. The live versions of The Missing/Deity are great but you can’t just dismiss stuff like Golden Dawn and Hizbollah.
