I can’t believe that I am sitting here typing about an Al Jourgensen country album. Part of me can’t believe the debut from Jourgensen’s country alter-ego Buck Satan is finally available while another part of me can’t believe AL JOURGENSEN MADE A COUNTRY ALBUM! Like a mix between Crazy Heart, Reverend Horton Heat and the Rebel Meets Rebel album by David Allan Coe and three fourths of Pantera, Jourgensen’s alter ego Buck Satan is a an evil industrial country hellraiser […]

There are some people who believe I should be mad that Ministry decided to come out of retirement after I made the trek to Chicago for some of their final U.S. shows in 2008. In all honesty, when the final notes of “End Of Days” rang out on 2007’s The Last Sucker, I was heartbroken knowing I would never hear another note of new Ministry music. That said, the announcement late last year that Al Jourgensen had reactivated Ministry for […]

Ok, I know this reasoning is totally gonna fuck me in 2030 but for now we’re going to go with it. As a preview of the new year, I give you Metal Monday’s Top 12 of 2012: 1. Ministry: Relapse (March 30th, 2012) Did I not tell you that I went to 2 of the 4 “farewell” shows Ministry did in Chicago in 2008? One part of me should be pissed that Uncle Al got Ministry back together but the […]

While the debut of “Metal Monday’s most anticipated releases of 2012” list is still a few weeks off, I can still tell you without a doubt that Ministry’s Relapse is going to top that list. Uncle Al announced the return of the always formidable Ministry over the summer and is just about finished recording Relapse, due on March 30th through AFM Records. If you’ve been paying attention to the site, you’ll have noticed we’ve been doing our part by sharing […]

The Industrial Revolution has arrived. I love me some industrial metal. My musical appreciation began around 1992 when Ministry released Psalm 69 and NIN had just released Broken . After them, I discovered Skinny Puppy, Front Line Assembly, and a slew of others and I’ve been an avid fan of the genre ever since. The last few years have definitely produced some solid industrial albums but I don’t think there’s been a release schedule like May 10th in a very long time. May […]

Hey folks…allow me to introduce you to the latest Popblerd! staffer.Actually, let’s allow him to introduce himself. Jesse’s decided to list a couple of his favorite records to give you all an idea of where he comes from musically and also to show off how eclectic he is. What a snob, right? (I’m kidding, of course…anyone who loves Weird Al can’t possibly be a snob.) Musically, this is me in a nutshell. Since I’ll be sharing my thoughts and opinions […]
