Ministry: Twitch (1986)

Untitled
Twitch was the first full-length Ministry record I ever owned. The record has a much darker and heavier sound than the earlier synth efforts. I really liked the direction the band took with this release and it remains one of my favourite Ministry records.

Bill Rieflin joined the band for this outing. If you are a King Crimson fan, like me, you will also know him from a later incarnation of that band, as well as his work with a number of industrial bands and also R.E.M.

The CD version of this record -- which I also own -- includes the 12" version of Over the Shoulder along with Isle of Man (Version II). Turn it up.
