Pretty much how I feel about the band. Will still maintain open mind and look forward to hearing their latest.  If it can match "Lockbox" and "Unsung" then all the better.

Thanks
Personally i think they lost it after Paul Barker left , although I'll still listen to the recent albums they just pale in comparison to the stuff that he was on.
They lost that Industrial edge and turned more metal and the whole bush thing became rather tiresome in the end.
Still hope to catch them one last time Live as well if i can.

ok, well went through and gave it another skim.
 I'd say its probably about on par with recent releases.
Couple good songs, some ok filler, and then some head scratchers.
topics include: addiction, current (OWS, etc), political, and lifes a real
MF'er. - about what you'd expect. And music follows pretty much the standard
Ministry format.
 
 They have a song "99%" which seems it will be the one that would be
their standout/anthem song- although the lyrics are a bit simplistic- and I
would have expected a bit more from them in that dept on that topic.
They also do a "Get up Get out and Vote" that seems to be going for anthem.
There is a kind of trashy ballad sort of track (Bloodlust)  that I
liked and showed a little variation- 
If you were making a top 20 ministry comp for someone, you may throw
that one in there to round things out.
 Most of it falls into what I usually think of their songs- I like the
intro, or the guitar riff, or vocals in the song but most of
the time it doesn't happen all in the same song, lol.
 They do a United Forces S.O.D. cover.
 Im sure everyone could pull a few things they like out of it.
I might try to interview Ol' Al -- not nec on the music but just to let him
expound on some current topics
