(Sorry if there is already a thread about this, I searched and didn’t find any)
I started liking Ministry when I heard With Sympathy. It was poppy and cute. But I loved Twitch and Land of Rape and Honey. After that it started getting too metal for me.
So what about you guys?
“In Case You Didn’t Feel Like Showing Up” represents Ministry perfection in every way.

the 88-91 era is my favorite. The mid 90’s up to Dark Side are pretty epic as well.
1989 for me so:
The Mind Is a Terrible Thing to Taste
Dark Side’s my favorite album front to back, though Twitch is a damn close runner-up. Mind was my intro to the band and has my favorite Ministry song. I like pretty much everything, though, from the band’s inception up to about half of RGB.
“Hail to His Majesty,” though. Goddamn, I think I unironically love this song.
Top 10 tracks in no particular order, though this list changes like every day:
Dream Song (number one for sure)
Vex and Siolence
Impossible
10/10
Crash & Burn
Flashback
Whip & Chain
What About Us?
Bad Blood
Move
Its been darkside of the spoon for some time now. I think its officially taken the clear lead over filth pig. I’m sure I’ll change my mind in 6 months but its been dark side for a year or 2 now.
So mid to late 90’s for sure for me. I do like the the mind and in case period as well.

IMO, the song Stigmata reeks badassery.

And since reading his book and walking down memory lane here with you guys, it’s stuck in my damn head.
“The mind is a labyrinth. . .”
Top 3: Mind. Rape and Honey. Psalm.
Bottom 3: With Sympathy. Relapse. Dark Side.

Can’t help it, I liked With Sympathy at the time. But when I heard Twitch, I was like “is that the same band? whaaaaaaaaat?”
Oh, you’re not the only one. And you’re certainly entitled.
I only post that to show how many different kinds of Ministry fans post here.
All are welcome!
It’s weird that Ministry has such diverse sounds. Like you would never think that they are the same band. Ya know?
FILTH PIG!!!
Mind
Rape and Honey all the way.
Filth Pig by a landslide!!!
86 - 2003 Ministry/Lard/Pailhead/Revolting Cocks you can’t go wrong with though…live and in the studio.
