@@TheEletronicFunky Not sure if he actually got to play any of this in a band but he loved this early ministry stuff. He would rant and rave about it. I had pins all over my jacket but even if he wore a tshirt he would wear a Ministry pin. A fun Aquarious that never judges anyone and is cool with anything.
It's actually quite simple to make. Simply get your favorite synth bass vst and copy the drum sequence onto the bass track. And add a gate sequencer (like A1) and an arpeggiator (I like ableton's descending 12ths) Change the sequencer to a basic electronic/techno/etc. Pattern toggle wet/dry knob to 50-75%. Have arp playing 50-75 dry/wet, notes timed to 32, repeat 2-4... and that's pretty much it. It'll play along with the drum beat but add small deviations like the Ministry track does. Minor changes to the presets is fun, or add the bass vsts to the drum channel and they'll be more in sync.
I was a kid a long time ago...me and my older cousin in the car driving....everything dark going to our grandma's house after being in the record store...this song played...he started to add speed...he was smiling at me ....Best night of my life Edit:He started speeding cause of the adrenaline (this song)not some suicidal shits
People are always debating if the new wave stuff was better than the industrial metal stuff. I'm thinking it was all insanely good. Dude had some talent and could probably make a great country album if he had to.
Now i know where the inspiration for 'Hysteria by MUSE' came from. Either that or it's all just a coincidence, either way the intros are almost identical.
So awesome...and that pic is great too, the look is a cross between echo & the bunnymen & duran duran, with some modern english thrown in for good measure lol

I honestly wish al would still make less heavy industrial albums that have a similar sound as his stuff from the early 80's.. There's no way im the only one lol .. i mean we have plenty of Heavy Ministry Albums, Right??
Mr. Grimm Agreed. I love both styles and Al is great at both, but it would have been cool if he had a side project or something where he kept doing stuff similar to this. Too bad he was too busy shitting on this era and getting messed up on drugs. Lots of wasted time and potential. Though I do understand if he just wanted to move on, synthpop was past it's prime, and I guess he just didn't relate to it anymore.
Spoke directly to AJ in '89 when I was on WRIU. AJ was very jaded about the synth pop sound. He said it was at the prompting of the record company and his agent to go that way because "it would sell". Al's later heavy sound was closer to what he really wanted to do and who he is artistically. Not my sound, but he's the artist and its his art.
Al's not being entirely truthful but that story helps bolster his metal/industrial cred. According to people who knew Al in the early 80s he was very much into new wave, darkwave, post-punk and synthpop. 'Robert Roberts, one of Ministry's early members, also addressed the discontent around With Sympathy as part of a wide-ranging interview. "I understand that Al, in retrospect, has said that he was very unhappy with With Sympathy and that Arista made him do it," he told the fan website prongs.org. "I don't think that this was entirely true. Now what is true, is that I don't think that With Sympathy really captured the band correctly, at least it really didn't sound like we did live. That I'll admit. But to say that someone twisted his arm, I don't know. He certainly seemed to be into it at the time, more so than anyone else in fact." source: ultimateclassicrock.com/ministry-with-sympathy/
There is also ministry interview from the early/mid 80s where Al says that metal is just noise he can't even listen to. It should be somewhere on prongs.
My friends sister used to bang all these dudes when they came through town back then. Al was very much into this stuff at the time. From the way he dressed, to the way he rocked. At least that's how her stories came off when she got home the next day.
They had a shit record company because this is the best stuff from the 80s i recently found this and had never heard of it back then. Way better than depeche mode.
If your thirsty enough, you could always just order a custom one from these guys. www.onecutvinyl.com www.discmakers.com/products/vinyl.asp www.customrecords.com/
no one hearing the loopy drumbeats, and synth waves, of early DAF here...? ..really?......well, even possible , Al and his MiNISTRY didn´t too. Sounds GREAT, both of ´em :-D
Put food on the table, a flat, new Rolands, money in pocket, good drugs, & sorry Patty, but got laid. Lots & lots of alcohol. But we still miss Uncle Al. This was a great period in music back in the late 80's/ 90's.. The Cuban was super talented, but not forgotten...

Dude. I have a long lost friend named Wesley and this was his holy grail of music. Miss you buddy, hope you are good.
Dude... nice
Rest In Peace man. He’s play stuff like this or what
upvote this so that if wesley looks for this song he will find his old friend

@@MacetazzOpina Hey that would be Awesome, thanks! I was on your page, is that your band? Sounds great.
This Ministry is the best Ministry.
The synth bass alone on this is beyond awesome! 🖤
rivotrich7 is the synth bass arpeggiated in the song
Sequential Circuits Pro-One sequencer.
true! 3340 style!

This guy created a vast world on sounds, vibe, style through 20 years. He have a special place down in my dry small heart! :)
Wish Al would have stayed like this
I've become enamoured of early Ministry, even tho a metalhead
Ministry of post-punk
I was a kid a long time ago...me and my older cousin in the car driving....everything dark going to our grandma's house after being in the record store...this song played...he started to add speed...he was smiling at me ....Best night of my life
Edit:He started speeding cause of the adrenaline (this song)not some suicidal shits
This one is actually the best mix available on youtube
Are you also listening to derrelloz’s electro punk playlist. I’m going through it for the first time. Actually prem totally rad
There are others that are high quality but i think i perfer this version over any of the others. The bad recording quality kinda adds to it
Dang! I remember when I heard this 8 years ago! Still in love with it. Dark-wave is simply something else.
Wow! First time hearing this masterpiece
its so fascinating how incredibly fucking talented Uncle Al was...this stuff is absolutely fuckin timeless...really fucking good!!
lolliwag still talented and still

"This next one´s called SAME OLD MADNESS!" I love this version!
THIS
IS IT
Now i know where the inspiration for 'Hysteria by MUSE' came from.
Either that or it's all just a coincidence, either way the intros are almost identical.
+TheDigitalslayer My thoughts exactly!
i heard that same intro in so many songs from early 80s doe
Holy shiit.... I just noticed this.. !!
It's similar, but not that similar
@@lisazoria2709 I agree with you
I've listened to this in the darkest hours - it only give me light
Al needs to do a modern heavier version of this... the lyrics still fit and this beat / groove / riff combo is infectious.
So awesome...and that pic is great too, the look is a cross between echo & the bunnymen & duran duran, with some modern english thrown in for good measure lol
Ahah nice shot! you coul'd have call Alan to the party! :) (in the background though:))
The Best days......
I'm getting a Nick Cave vibe.
Same Old Madness lyrics
In the morning, reading the paper
Read the front page to the back page
Welcome to the nuclear age
No more time for vicious outrage
Same old madness x 4
Wright to London, wright to London
wright to Tokyo, wright to Thailand
Wright us right here in our homeland
Regan sits behind them leering
Soviets are domineering
Third world things need engineering
No more time for loving, caring
Same old madness x 4
In the evening, reading the paper
Read the front page to the back page
Welcome to the crazy age
It's the very latest craze
Same old madness x 4
Hilarious how they morphed into Industrial Metal. I like em both ways. Al is a crazy bastard. Saw them at Lollapalooza in 1992 and they tore it up.

No more time for vicious outrage
Same old madness
Same old madness
Same old madness
Same old madness
Write to London, write to Ireland
Write to Tokyo, write to Thailand
Write us right here in our homeland
Reagan sits behind walls sneering
Soviets are domineering
Third world states need engineering
No more time for loving and caring
Same old madness
Same old madness
Same old madness
Same old madness
In the evening, reading the paper
Read the front page through the back page
"Welcome to the modern age"
It's the very latest craze
Same old madness

Over and over and over and over...
Love this track
love the pic
My fave Ministry song. Fan of metal and synth.
that is'nt metal
@@fernandocastillo5066 I know. I meant I’m a fan of both synth and metal.
What a stark dichotomy of the Ministry of today? ⛪👊😳💔🗽 Unbelievable 💗✌🎇

Though I do understand if he just wanted to move on, synthpop was past it's prime, and I guess he just didn't relate to it anymore.
anyway we must recognize both metal and synth epoc they were terrific...
Their early work wasn't really industrial it was synth pop, New wave completely different.
Industrial sound left long ago never to return. Synth pop/punk until The Land.... album. Pretty much a basic metal sound since the 2000's.
Make Ministry Synth Again
Эл был ВОЛШЕБНИКОМ с юности !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Факты
A melhor versão !
really tight performance
best version.....love those Sharp melodies..
Always hard driving music by Uncle Al.
Muse covered this song like Hysteria
Really? I want to hear that. Huge Muse fan here.
This is excellent. I've never heard it until now.

Still fresh as F
THANK YOU SO MUCH, for this Upload! 💜💜💜 Best Song!...also this other two versions are brutal...🖤
Beatiful sound beatiful years
Making a video of 2 different live versions combined...that's love that is.
I hear Killing Joke and DAF influences here. Awesome track.
i believe this is before DAF
calling from somewhere in the midwest
@@robinsss well Chicago right?
@@Vlu_U2 not before daf but i i don´t know if daf inluence so early as KJ in chicago and usa
God this version is breathtaking...its like synth-punk goth-core...totally fucking epic 😻🎃👽💋👁👄🧠
This sounds like badass video game music.
Great song ...
Thank you
this sounds pretty good !
Temarrako ke gran época.... Nunca habrá nada como la escena!!!!!!!
same old matress
i wish i heard this before i heard muse
I did
1982 el mejor año !!!
His Demos sounded more better than their first studio album but his manager wanted him to change it.
My new theme song
meu deus adoro 1992
Sounds just as good as the studio version. 10/10
They had a shit record company because this is the best stuff from the 80s i recently found this and had never heard of it back then. Way better than depeche mode.
Someone should reissue this version on a beautiful slab of vinyl!

slap a shitty compressed youtube file on some vinyl and it's still gonna sound like gabage
***** good enough for me ;-)
Buy the box set...comes with a clear vinyl record of this track and about 6 others.
@@rleeroberts6350 that Chicago vinyl is fantastic, although they are not from the same show.
Just came across this, and realised that the band I am in is preparing an instrumental interlude that basically starts just like this song xD

Amazing

Wow!
It's like D.A.F. meets The B-52's.
this is perfect bmot

How about an Industrial Metal cover of the song, Al?
Second version is my favorite.
no one hearing the loopy drumbeats, and synth waves, of early DAF here...? ..really?......well, even possible , Al and his MiNISTRY didn´t too. Sounds GREAT, both of ´em :-D
Of course hearing DAF influences
Yesss!!!
wow🔥
fuck.... this is good.
wow,this kicks the s**t out of anything he did after "mind is a terrible thing to taste"
agree...and he ruined his face also..
searched up synth punk wondering if it was something that could describe muse,
and uhh
ironically, the synth sounds like the bass riff from hysteria
good!

Now we know where Muse stole the riff off Hysteria from.
The real Al, not pretending to be a tough guy to sell to boys in the USA.
Hell yeah🍻💪🥳🤝🤪🤣
