Specialists/collaborators reviews

Warthur
Ministry's followup to The Land of Rape and Honey features significantly less in terms of singing, includes rapping on Trust, and makes even more use of samples and loops than its predecessor. The end result is a fascinating crossover work bridging the worlds of metal, dance music, and industrial experimentalism, and which draws on a few lessons here and there from hip-hop too. Metal purists may balk at it, but for my money this is an excellent experiment which shows the breadth and depth of Al Jourgensen's musical influences and his mastery of a range of styles. Not quite as groundbreaking as its predecessor, to my mind, but still a great companion piece to it.
