4/5 ·
Warthur
Ministry's first album - retitled Work For Love and given a different running order in Europe - is in no sense industrial metal, so anyone hoping for more of the band's harsh, abrasive music in that style might want to skip this and start their listening with Twitch. What it is, however, is a well-realised synthpop album in the vein of Gary Numan - Al Jourgensen even adopts a corny British accept in tribute to his synthpop heroes. If you like that sort of thing, it's a fun listen, but be aware that this is in no way representative of Ministry's usual sound.
