The songcraft here is stellar and varied. What hair band would take time away from photo shoots to cover “Dream a Little Dream” in a way Queen would approve of?
Aside from bombast and a drum machine on crack, the arrangements aren’t much different. Ministry can sing, and don’t have to dumb down “the hard parts.”
Straight-forward bar punk. Like street punk, but more bar room bad-ass rock’n’roll. Like the rockier bands on TKO or Disaster or punked-up Nashville Pussy.
The airier Monster Magnet psych-pop, swirling through the ’90s Too Pure label stuff, and yep, Kraut rock, plus whatever electronica a Sabbath fan might dig.
Ex-members of Crash & Burn and The Unseen. Crash & Burn were barnstorming rock, filled with speedy riffs. The Unseen are/were mohawk punk, but damn hardcore.
