Masterbatour 2006: MINISTRY and The Revolting Cocks
OH - MaH - GAwD!! What a concert!!
We were at the sold out show at DC's 9:30 Club (my favorite local concert venue) last Wednesday night and I had the BEST TIME I've had at a concert in years! Al Jourgensen is still at the top of his game and perhaps better than ever! Both bands rocked, but truthfully MINISTRY blew us away!! The volume! The intensity! OMG the fucking PIT was insane!! There is nothing funner than pushing guys around twice my size!! (lol!) My heart is still racing!!! I HAD SOO MUCH FUN!!!
(Taken from the MINISTRY website):
"Rio Grande Blood" marks the triumphant return of Jourgensen, the avenger. Having finished with major labels, Al Jourgensen recently formed a new record label, "13th Planet Records", with worldwide distribution via noted metal label Megaforce in North America and Soulfood Distribution internationally. In the midst of a vitally prolific stage of his career, Jourgensen has also reformed the Revolting Cocks with a new line-up and a new record, and is set up for a world tour with both bands this spring and summer, lovingly titled "MastabaTouR".
As Jourgensen prepares for a world tour he has assembled an impressive line-up of musicians to bring this monster to life. Killing Joke bassist Paul Raven, Prong guitarist Tommy Victor, long-time Ministry axe-virtuoso Mike Scaccia, keyboardist John Bechdel (Fear Factory, Prong, Killing Joke) and drummer Joey Jordison.
With a renewed D.I.Y. devotion to his music and a burning angst toward the outrageous geo-political nation-building and nation-destroying agenda of the Bush administration, Al Jourgensen returns to advance his new world order: prolific, unbowed, and restless. Anger never sounded so good!!!
Rock On!
