I really didn't see this coming. Despite knowing full well Al Jourgenson's myriad of musical inspirations, I never thought to hear an album full of covers by Ministry. Furthermore, not a bunch of classic rock'n'roll tunes. But that's what they've done, a more lively and upbeat send-off to a band who's career spanned the better part of 3 decades, one of the most influential of our time. Each song deserves some notice. Opener "Under My Thumb" (Rolling Stones) is pure bloody awesome in every way; translating the original melody to a synth line and rollicking it up a bit more...
