It feels great to be back in the swing of things! Although I was traveling over the Holidays (from Oakland to Wisconsin to Reno to Las Vegas and back) I did have a couple moments to catch up on the tunez that have been flooding my inbox and toss a couple on the iPhone as well!
This is not one of them... This is Ministry's With Sympathy album from 1983 and it kicks a lot of butt!
The tracks I've selected for you below should give you an accurate depiction of how their style was much different then, as you could easily compare this 1983 release to some familiar bands as Pet Shop Boys, Tears For Fears, Pink Floyd and Phil Collins.
You'll have no problem warming up to the Jazzy, 80's-flavored Synth-Pop of "Say You're Sorry," which does lean slightly more towards the dark side than towards true pop music... It is however in contrast a little more Knots Landing than it is Dallas...
You can listen to a couple selections below, and can pick up the MP3 album for $8.99 on Amazon by clicking here.
Ministry - "Effigy (I'm Not An)"

The ONLY good song on this album was the Reaggae-ish, "What He Say?"
