Anti- Machine Machines
I like the remixes a bit better, more creepy effects and a slightly heavier, farther out vibe. Which I suppose is the point of remixes? Good stuff though...

Excellent
Killer electronic/industrial remix here, very well done, many of the songs are better sounding than the originals. Ministry fans will want this one.
Great album in its own right
If this had come out before Grande Blood I would have loved it as just another Ministry album, its definately one of the best remix albums ever done! I was worried that it might be a dub album, but Al & Co are always reliable, think more along the lines of White Zombies remixes. Favourites include Lies, Lies, Lies; and Fear is big business (both better than the originals)
It's like time travelling
Most remix spin off albums usually don't come close to the original, but this is up there with White Zombies Super Sexy Swinging Sounds. Rio Grande Dub(ya)has a feel somwhere inbetween The Land of Rape and Honey and Psalm 69. Ministry have hit the nail on the head HARD!! It's one to annoy the hell out of the neighbours with.
remix this
These remixes may be better than the original tracks. It's the perfect blend of vintage rape and honey Ministry and the thunderous metal guitar riffs that continue to define their sound.
