Ministry has
released a new live album on Bandcamp — with a vinyl edition following
in September — that, while not advertised as such, is taken from the
same 1990 concert that spawned the six-song In Case You Didn’t Feel Like
Showing Up live album and home video. The
new set is called Live Necronomicon, and it can be purchased and
streamed now via Bandcamp (in fact, you can listen to the whole record
below). A double-vinyl pressing, limited to 500 copies, is available for
pre-order ahead of its Sept. 1 release date; only 71 copies remained
this morning. There is no product
information for Live Necronomicon, but images of the vinyl release
include a photo of a master-tape reel dated 2/22/90, the date Ministry
played the Star Plaza Theatre in Merrillville, Ind. — the performance
captured, in very abbreviated form, on In Case You Didn’t Feel Like
Showing Up. The show was part of the
tour for 1989’s The Mind is a Terrible Thing To Taste, a trek that saw
bandleader Al Jourgensen flesh out the touring version of Ministry into a
10-piece industrial supergroup, adding Skinny Puppy’s Nivek Ogre,
Revolting Cocks member Chris Connelly, Jello Biafra of Dead Kennedys and
Lard, and a second drummer, Martin Atkins, of Public Image Ltd. and
many other groups. The new live release,
at 14 songs, omits the performance of Revolting Cocks’ “Stainless Steel
Providers,” two Jello Biafra spoken-word pieces (“Message From Our
Sponsor” and “Pledge of Allegiance”) and something listed on the setlist
as “Country Interlude.” It does, however, include performances of songs
by Pailhead, Lard, Skinny Puppy and PiL, in addition to plenty of
Ministry. Perhaps most notably,
according to fans who’ve listened to the set, is that the Merillville
tracks are now presented without the heavy overdubs featured on In Case
You Didn’t Feel Like Showing Up, with some of Connelly’s and Ogre’s
vocals now much more prominent than on the prior release.
