Real interesting case, re: Al Jourgensen and Ministry.

You'd think he'd be more conservative, considering he and his mother came from Cuba in the early 60s (Jourgensen is his adoptive father's name.) But he's always been a virulent, angry, way-too-in-your-face liberal--he rails against the horrors of conformity and the collective--and yet he's the most dutiful, unquestioning worker bee in the hive. Me thinks he has serious daddy issues.

Big heroin user, too. Maybe it's not so ironic that so many of the left are such non-functioning scumbags. He made some good music, though.

What always killed me about the song 'New World Order' was the fact that Jourgensen was such a socialist so I would think he would have hopped on board that train not railed against it.... (puns intended)

Daddy issues = looking for a father figure = socialism

"Big heroin user, too."

Yeah, I got a clue seeing that video where they were shooting plates and stuff with William Burroughs ("Never trust a junkie"). On the upside, Ministry got a great cameo in Speilberg's "A.I." movie.

Sender said "It's the 21st-century version of Alice Cooper..."

I think this creature

owes this one

a lot of for gimmick infringement.
