Adios… Puta Madres (Live)

For the goth seeking industrial vintage Ministry, pull out In Case You Didn't Feel Like Showing Up. You won't find classics like So What or Thieves here... they've already been done and Al Jourgensen isn't repeating himself. This album focuses entirely on the last three albums. If you haven't heard the last few albums (like The Last Sucker) the song selection closely resembles tracks like NWO, Jesus Built My Hotrod and PASLM 69... but with a tad more high octane blazing guitars and aggression. Although I'm a fan of early Ministry, I also love the latest Ministry. Thrash metal with a hint of their Industrial trademark sound, these tracks stay completely true to the originals that are recorded on the studio albums. It's actually remarkable how closely the live versions sound vs. the studio versions... starting with the voice that echo's, "The Party's over for this existence, It's the end of their kind as we know it, Hail and Fire!!" "Because the seas are rising and the Tides are Coming in". Then comes the electrifying guitars and the distorted singing from Al that seems to change very little over the years. Furious... Awesome and Beautiful. But again, if you are looking for a live album that incorporates their entire career, don't look here. This album is for "The Last Sucker's".

These queens who keep whining about ". . . I only liked Ministry during the Land of Rape & Honey or Psalm 69" These losers will never get it! The last couple of lp's they did really blow the doors off. And this live effort proves it. This is Ministry at their BEST and I if ya don't think so you don't know Ministy. So, get it and then you might GET IT!

This is Ministry. It's classic, grindy, political, offensive Minisry with a half dozen greasy, awesome metal tacos on the side! This is everything I grew to love about Ministry from Psalm 69 forward only amped up, metalled out, and in your face. That it offended the Dubya heads is really only a major added bonus. ROCK ON GUYS!

I saw Ministry with KMFDM in 91 and thought it was one of the greatest things I'd ever seen. There earlier albums like Land of Rape and Honey and Mind were amazing. Than I began to notice something. Al Jourgensen had nothing more to offer. Maybe that's why Paul Barker left. Each album after Mind just got worse and worse and all of them could have been delivered in any order because they were the SAME ALBUM. This band has been living off it's name for over 15 years now and it's ridiculous. Did anyone else feel that Sphinctour was one of the cheesiest "concert" videos of all time. It was like watching the same video for 13 different songs.........I love good, loud, fast industrial/thrash music, but I feel cheated by the last few Ministry releases.

Following his hate George W Bush trilogy we are soon expecting a trilogy praising Obama and Castro!!

if you don't like ministrys newest releases then you of course won't like this release. it is mostly newer material. if you are more into their older stuff buy the sphinctour cd. i saw them live in new orleans on this tour and it was amazing. for anyone to say this is a terrible ending to a great band you obviously were living in a cave when they released all of these SINGLES on previous albums. don't be surprised when it's on their final cd.

I loved a different era of Ministry. This is real good if you are into the last 3 albums only. Its recorded well and they play the songs honest to the original.

I enjoy most of the older material prior 2004, but when this tour was advertised "covering 30 years", I was excited. There was nothing really old, but FOUR classics, and the final set of the show were cover songs. On this album, we get the main set and ONLY the main set. No classics? No Covers? What the hell, Al? I'm not a huge fan of 2004-2008 Ministry, but I find it awfully disappointing to see only the bush trilogy released and absolutely nothing else. Also. These songs are practically intentical to the album versions, but with a tired old uncle Al struggling through the motions. Disappointing, and not worth the money. Blatant cash grab for a band who now has officially released it's THIRD farewell album now. Save your money, kids. Invest your money into the older albums pre-03 if you'd like, or just find and discover something else. I highly encourage it.
