Ministry's eighth album, released in 1992, is their best-known (and best) work, an awesomely heavy slab of industrial dance music. Incidentally, Psalm 69 is a title of convenience, like Led Zeppelin 4 - the actual title is something incomprehensible in Greek! Snarling, raging guitars conspire with relentless programmed rhythms to bludgeon the listener into submission. Highlights include opener N.W.O. (New World Order), for which a disturbing video exists, Just One Fix and rock club favourite Jesus Built My Hotrod, an atypical Foetus-sounding piece of revved-up psychobilly. All in all, Psalm 69 is as heavy as a supertanker full of wet cement - this album goes to 11!

This album is a total classic of noise industrial metal standards. This is where Ministry really nailed it, found their right sound, and arguably produced thier best ever album. There are so many great industrial classic tunes on here- N.W.O., Just one fix, Psalm 69, Hero...the whole album, start to finish in just about perfect.
It is total full-on, non stop, insane industrial beats right on top of super fast distorted guitars and bass, with drums pounding away forever. A must have industrial classic. LEGEND album.

Psalm 69 is a truelly devastating album by all acounts, and is unargueably one of the most important and infuential albums in history. This album defined industrial-metal and smashed barriers with its pounding electric beats, crushing metal guitar riffs and well-placed samples. Every track on this album is awesome, ranging from the sonic rape handed out by 'NWO' and 'Just1fix' to the trips inside the warped minds of Al and Paul in 'Scarecrow' or 'Psalm69'. This album is truelly extreme, but in relative industrial terms is easy-listening and is a great album for hazy saturday nights! A must buy for any industrial fan.

Not Very Good.
I was expecting this to be much better than it is, it's actually quite cheesy and sounds very dated, the singing is just silly and a bit embarrassing too, it's not worth parting... Read more

powerfully rythmic and crunching. This was very influential stuff. I agree there are some weaker songs on here, but it doesn't matter, its still fantastic. Read more

A classic of industrial metal
After beginning their career with a sound more like synth-pop than the loud industrial metal that they are known for, ministry developed a more and more heavy sound. Read more

Real Industrial Metal!
I wasn't entirely satisfied with the other Ministry albums I heard, but this one is proper industrial metal. Powerful beats, greats guitar riffs, angry vocals, it's just brilliant! Read more

This is the band that started it, and this is the album that started them on the road to stardom. If it wasn't for this band and this album, there would be no Korn, no Slipknot, no... Read more

Industry removes safety checks as too costly
Stunning, absolutely stunning. When I first heard this album, I was taken aback by the Techno sounding beats. But I listened again. Read more

A "classic" industrial rock album
One of the better experiences in life is walking into a dark and seedy club and watching a hundred people mosh and thrash about to the sound of Ministry. Read more
