This is why the 80's were great.

"I personally think 'Revenge' is one of the best post-punk/synthpop/new wave tracks of the 80's - and this is defiantly a fantastic album for anyone who's a fan of those particular styles of music. You won't be disappointed."

A Weird Listen for Ministry fans

"I first got into Ministry around the "Psalm:69" album. So I was more used to the Industrial-thrash metal Ministry. Couple of years ago I saw the "Twitch" album at a cd store and picked it up. I was quite confused, but eventually I really liked it. So I've been curious about this record for a while and eventually got the mp3 album.

It was better than I expected. It has this new wave sound to it, but the songs are actually really well written and hearing Al Jorganson sing love songs with a fake british accent is awesome. Al's clean singing voice is really good, the songs are put together well, and the whole cd is good. There is one or two cringers in here but all and all it's a good cd. if you like "Twitch" or even "The Land of Rape and Honey" you might enjoy this.

It's interesting even though this cd doesn't sound anything like later Ministry, you can hear parts of what Ministry would become in it's embryonic state."

Stroll down memory lane...

"This brings me back to my teenage years ... parties, first loves, care free times ... "With Sympathy" is the first and only melodic pop LP by Ministry. Everything else is much harsher verging on a heavy metal."
