Expand your musical horizon, plebeian!

Dude, I love the fruity old ministry. Its very Duran Duran, flock of seagulls Esque. And their old music videos (from the early to mid 80s) were the shit.Or you can say Ministry - the ******y-est new wave band. 'With Sympathy' was a fruity tooty keyboard synth new wave record. Crazy how different their sound became after.
Was never a huge industrial guy. Some were more 'avant garde' like The Swans. Others were more early industrial/dance stuff like Front 242, Revolting Cocks and the other Wax Trax label stuff.
I loved the Revolting Cocks 'Big Sexy Land' record and ANYTHING from Front 242 - 'Quite Unusual' being my favorite song.
Both the best Industrial song? 'I Will Refuse' by Pailhead featuring Ministry's Al Jourgenson and Ian Mackaye from Minor Threat:

Oh, and if you like some of the new dance industrial stuff check out Santa Hates Me. The chick is REALLY hot.
I agree with your overall assessment. Damnation ftw.Yeah, I think they lost something when they changed rythym section. The sound got more prog, but lost melody. Songs like the Lotus Eater have all the crazy prog stuff and death metal and even a disco bridge. What is missing is the brutality of Damnation and songs like Masters Apprentices or Advent or the super scary dark quality of songs Windowpage or Hope Leaves.
Even still, the best song they ever did was 'Benighted'.
