Ministry's Psalm 69: The Way to Succeed and the Way to Suck Eggs is industrial metal at its most gloriously unhinged, and it returns here on 180-gram vinyl.

Released in 1992 and officially titled in Greek letters, with a subtitle borrowed from an Aleister Crowley pun, the record was produced by Al Jourgensen and Paul Barker under their aliases Hypo Luxa and Hermes Pan, and pieced together over many months at Chicago Trax and Royal Recorders. It arrived just as heavier music was crashing into the charts, and its blend of thrash riffs, pounding drum machines and sampled mayhem dragged Jourgensen's machine into the mainstream and made it a defining moment for the genre.

"N.W.O." opens with a sneering broadside at political power, all chugging guitars and scattershot samples. "Just One Fix" is a relentless, nerve-shredding portrait of addiction, while "Jesus Built My Hotrod" lets Butthole Surfers frontman Gibby Haynes loose for a hilarious, breakneck burst of rockabilly-on-amphetamines chaos. The title track "Psalm 69" brings pummelling menace and a sense of total apocalypse.

Abrasive, funny and wildly influential, it remains one of the heaviest records ever to cross over to rock radio. This heavyweight 180-gram pressing keeps every searing riff, scream and sample intact.
