MINISTRY: The Mind Is A Terrible Thing To Taste Vinyl LP

Ministry's commercial peak, and the record that brought industrial metal to a mainstream rock audience.

The Mind Is a Terrible Thing to Taste (1989) is the album that crystallized Ministry's signature sound -- pummeling, distorted guitars married to relentless programmed drums and Al Jourgensen's increasingly venomous vocal delivery. "Burning Inside" and "Thieves" remain genre-defining tracks. A genuinely influential record that paved the way for the entire 90s industrial-metal boom.
