Ministry And Co-Conspirators - Cover Up

Al Jourgensen is the man behind Ministry. He started in the early 80s as a lightweight synth pop band and evolve to a heavy industrial band. Jourgensen has stopped with Ministry and his other projects and as farewell he decided to release the ultimate party album. On this album like the title says you hear only covers. The songs stay close to the original version but Jourgensen added his sound over it. So it expect heavy, industrial machinery. The songs you hear are songs you already know so no suprise for you. When you visit the site of the label you can see who worked on this album too. To mention just two of them, Tommy Victor (Prong) and Burton C. Bell (Fear Factory).

It is indeed fun to hear the famous songs with a Jourgensen twist.
