This is an example of how Ministry reworked the early stuff. Also: backup singers, and an electric violin and cello:

@rivetgeek early Ministry is so weird to listen to, like some sort of ersatz Depeche Mode.

@Tim_Eagon Al Jourgensen was basically forced to make the first album, With Sympathy, the way that the record company wanted. He's hated the album for years and both it and Twitch haven't been played live since 1984 and 1987 respectively. This is literally the first time anyone has heard these songs played live in 40 years.

@rivetgeek I watched the video from the show yesterday of "Work for Love," which is probably the early Ministry song I hear the most on the radio. I really liked that version and that show looked really cool (I would've fit in well with that mostly 40+ crowd):

@rivetgeek Also, I don't think I've ever seen an electric cello before.

@Tim_Eagon It was completely not what I was expecting. I think I was expecting him to just play the songs the way the crowd would be expecting and basically phone it in.

Duran Duran changed up their show too and it was great. Granted the last time I saw them was over 30 years ago...
