On this day, 22 ago Ministry released 'Animositisomina'

18th of February 2025, 00:00

'Animositisomina' is the eighth studio album by American industrial rock band Ministry, released on February 18, 2003, that's XXXYEARS ago! It marks a return to the band’s classic industrial-metal sound following the more experimental and groove-oriented albums of the late 1990s. The album’s title is a palindrome of "animosity" and "anima," reflecting themes of internal struggle, aggression, and personal demons.

This was the final album to feature bassist and longtime collaborator Paul Barker, whose departure marked the end of an era for Ministry. The record is dark, heavy, and raw, blending distorted guitars, mechanical drum loops, and Al Jourgensen’s signature snarling vocals. Tracks like 'Animosity', 'Unsung', and 'Piss' deliver punishing riffs and politically charged lyrics, while 'Leper' and 'The Light Pours Out of Me' (a cover of Magazine’s post-punk classic) add depth to the album’s sonic assault.

Though 'Animositisomina' was not a commercial success, it is often regarded as an underrated gem in Ministry’s catalog, bridging the gap between their 1990s output and their later Bush-era politically driven albums like 'Houses of the Molé' (2004). The album remains a testament to Ministry’s uncompromising intensity and their ability to evolve within the industrial metal genre.

On this day, 11 years ago, DEVO guitarist Bob Casale (61) died.

17th of February 2025, 00:00

On February 17, 2014, Bob Casale died at the age of 61, in Los Angeles, California, due to heart failure. As with most musicians their legacy is both the influence and the music they leave behind, in the case of Casale what he accomplished with Devo is astounding.


The debut full-length album by Devo-“Q: Are We Not Men? A: We Are Devo!” broke into the UK charts reaching a high of number-twelve, that set the chain reaction of legend.
Although released to mixed reviews, since then Rolling Stone has listed in amongst the 500 Greatest Albums of All Time, it is also listed in the book 1001 Albums You Must Hear Before You Die-for a reason. It is the punk-electronic crossover, somewhere balancing between all-out rage and novelty recording. Produced by Brian Eno and David Bowie on the back of their experimental Berlin-trilogy, Devo became the perfect project.

“This is the band of the future”-David Bowie on Devo.

The strangest album-title comes from the lead single, released this month in 1978-“Jocko Homo" introduced the call-and-response "Are we not men?-We are Devo!". Indeed that single charted in the UK’s top-100.
“Q: Are We Not Men? A: We Are Devo!” broke down barriers as it reflected perfectly the state of rock-music. The death of glam, the cliches which were already falling into the punk movement and the heavyweight stadium acts who played for the money and not the audience is meshed into every inch of the album. It flung back the pretentious notions of the old-guard with a cover of The Rolling Stones “Satisfaction”, became spokespeople for the hippy-drug generation with “Too Much Paranoias”. In time Devo could be perceived as journalists, highlighting their perception of what the music business had become.

Bob Casale was intricate in the Devo sound, providing back vocals, keyboards and that sixties-based rhythm guitar sound. Though his later years was spent in the field of soundtracks to movies such as - Four Rooms, Rushmore and The Royal Tenenbaums, the past would always reach for him in the form of reunion shows from 1996 until 2007.
Along with bands like Kraftwerk, Talking Heads, and Pere Ubu, Devo hailed a new era of electronic based compositions that set the trajectory for much of modern music. Looking deep with the modern framework of music points directly in the sound of LCD Soundsystem, Radiohead, even in Arcade Fire, you frequently find strong traces of Devo.

The Telephone Call - Lyrics

[EN]
I give you my affection and I give you my time
Trying to get a connection on the telephone line
You're so close but far away
I call you up all night and day

I give you my affection and I give you my time
Trying to get a connection on the telephone line
You're so close but far away
I call you up all night and day
You're so close but far away
I call you up all night and day

I give you my affection and I give you my time
Trying to get a connection on the telephone line
I call you up from time to time
To hear your voice on the telephone line
I call you up from time to time
To hear your voice on the telephone line

[DE]

Ich geb' dir meine Zuneigung und meine Zeit
Ich muß dich wiedersehen, wann ist es soweit?
Du bist mir nah und doch so fern
Ich ruf' dich an, ich hör' dich gern
