Ministry's best album was Filth Pig.
- Yes, TLORAH was groundbreaking industrial.
- Yes, Psalm 69 was a truly fun record.
- Yes, Twitch was fun to watch Al shake off the weird synthpop phase and probably terrify producers eager for the next Depeche Mode.
- Yes, I know he kept making music after 1996.
Some come close, but none of it tops Filth Pig, the sludgiest, heaviest record they ever released. People hated it. They wanted more Psalm 69 and Al was like "Nah, get the BPM down to about half." Paul Barker cranked up the bass distortion to 300% to underpin every song. Al started getting political, but not to cringe levels like the 2000s brought.
I was one year old and this man would be demolishing the speakers in my Dad's car a touch under 2 decades later.
