I never know how to type these things, because I never prepare for this shit. Ministry and Rigor Mortis guitarist Mike Scaccia died over the weekend during a performance in Ft. Worth, Texas.

RIGOR MORTIS Just Finished Recording New Album

RIGORMORTIS

Rigor Mortis is finally coming out with a new album! I know some of you are like, "who the fuck is Rigor Mortis", so I'm about to tell you. The thrash band basically kickstarted the extreme music scene in Dallas-Fort Worth in the 80s, ending up with two releases on Capital Records and Metal Blade, respectively, and on the soundtrack to The Decline of the Western Civilization Part 2 (The Metal Years).  (more…)

A Pirate's Revenge on MINISTRY

This post is not going to debate the pros and cons of piracy. We'll save that for another time. This is just about a funny story involving piracy. If you happen to be looking for Ministry's discrography on the Pirate Bay (we assume you can find the link yourselves) and land on rovhal_knullare's post, there is an amazing description to go with the torrent, chronicling just why the original uploader decided to put everything online for free.

LAMB OF GOD, MEGADETH, SLAYER are among Grammy nominees

Tom-Araya-Grammy-2The Grammy awards are probably best summed up by MINISTRY's AL JOURGENSEN, who once said, "Getting nominated for a Grammy is like getting the big, fat, wet kiss from your wrinkly old Aunt at Thanksgiving or Christmas." On that note, Ministry are getting a sloppy wet one this year, along with JUDAS PRIEST, MEGADETH, SLAYER and LAMB OF GOD in the Grammy category that'll never live down the award it gave to JETHRO TULL. Once again, "Best Metal Performance" is all established, big-name bands (including a 30-year-old Priest song), and "Best Hard Rock Performance" is an absolute embarrassment (NICKELBACK? LINKIN PARK? "Unforgiven III?"). Aren't you glad you never watch this? Full "Hard Rock" and "Metal" nominees are after the jump. (more…)

Some band gets back together, why does anybody care?

http://myspacetv.com/index.cfm?fuseaction=vids.individual&videoid=19283117

So Blabbermouth is reporting that a much-maligned band iz back together, and already people are up in arms as if the world were being subjected to a third Bush term. Before we never address this topic again, let's remember a 20-year-old chorus from MINISTRY.

Who the hell cares? Why are people so bent out of shape about this band getting back together? Are you afraid of the almost entirely unfathomable chance that they're going to start having hits again after being universally ignored for years? Even if this band gets popular again, are you paying such close attention to modern rock radio that this band will make your existence even more miserable than it already is by sitting through 50 minutes of commercials and NICKELBACK? If you're deeply bothered by this bit of news, then the problem isn't with the white guy from the LIL' BOW WOW video. And no, we're not linking to that.
