Apologies if this question has been answered before…
Who is pictured in stone on the cover of “Twitch”? Is that Al with a bandana on his head?
Also…Brian Shanley photographed a lot of the covers for Ministry during their first 10 years. Has he been considered for a Prongs interview? Would like to hear about the art direction of the first few albums.
Thanks!
I’d love to read an interview with Shanley, he had as much to do with Wax Trax! success as most any of the musicians. He did great photography and layout.
yeah, not to mention that “over the shoulder” cover is kind of similar! would love to know more about it all too.
Who is it is a good question…
what the hell they’ve done with it is a better question. Reminds me of that scene in Star Wars where Han Solo is carbon frozen.
Perhaps Stephen George carbon frozen? Hmm. [crazy][;)]
I’ll probably see Brian at the O’Banions reunion this Saturday. Probably see a lot of old Wax Trax people there as well.
Hell, Frankie might even show up if he’s around.
Well slip him afra and bisquit’s emails and tell him we want the inside story.
We’re scholars, after all.
WORD. Wondered that for the longest time. Twitch always had my favorite cover art.
It’s Al on the cover, covered in egg yolk and flour.
And please ed, let Shanley know we’re down…I have emailed him at his old yahoo email but he never responded (unless he no longer uses it)…
will do.
shanley’s a good, respectful guy.
i would love the learn more on Brian and his work with Wax Trax.
brian shanley was the man.
and i have known brian shanley, and i am no brian shanley.
he was a club party animal.
still a good photograher, who made a difference.
just talked to frank nardiello, and, oddly enough, cynthia plastercaster.
and the concensus is there–brian shanley was in the right place at the right time.
more later.
btw, this thursday might be entertaining for those fans of good morning america.
It’s Al on the cover, covered in egg yolk and flour…
You the man JLdubya. Thanks [:)]
hi al.
It’s Al on the cover, covered in egg yolk and flour.
Oh!!!
Something like that happened to me at a bucks night once. I was completely naked and after covering me in the egg and the flour one of the strippers takes this hose pipe and…ah…eeew no better not - I just had breakfast.
hi al.
That’s the second time you’ve written that after a post I made.
I’m confused. [blush]
I’m Angie, you know this. [shocked]
It’s Al on the cover, covered in egg yolk and flour.
Cool just like at the end of the Over The Shoulder video.
I’m holding you to this ed! PM me if you get the chance.

That’s fucking cool.
I prefer the twitched cover myself !
