Ministry “Stigmata (Remix)”
Ministry “Stigmata (Remix)” 1988. 12″ single. B-Side “Tonight We Murder.” “Stigmata” appeared on Ministry’s third studio album, “The Land of Rape and Honey.”
“Stigmata” is heavy, nihilistic, industrial distorted, relentless beat perfect for dancing (of which my friends and I did A LOT of to this song during the summer of ‘89 at clubs featuring industrial nights). “Tonight We Murder” is just as aggressive, with evil-tinged hypnotic growling lyrics and rhythm. Time to go polish my industrial dance moves.
Daily (maybe) pulls from the vault: 33-1/3, 45, 78, old, older, classic, new, good, bad. Subjective. Autobiographical. Occasionally putting a record up for sale.
