I had heard the name Ministry bandied about for while before I ever actually heard any music by them. I eventually heard a song or two while I was in college, but I didn’t really care for what I heard. About five years into my career, however, they ended up back on my radar when I received a request to do some work on their album Twitch. Though I didn’t necessarily think it was a mind-blowing record, I found myself getting more into the music as it went on, prompting me to seek out other stuff by them and ultimately stumbling upon this gem.
