But before Ministry created their influential third album, The Land of Rape and Honey, there was Twitch. And this album probably owes more to Front 242 than anything. The only thing remotely resembling their later music is the use of psychotic sampling that Al Jourgensen and Paul Barker will always be known for.

Make no mistake: this sounds nothing like any of Ministry's other albums; listeners may hear how they became what they did.
