    Their classic albums all had filler, but The Last Sucker has none. Each song is instantly identifiable. Riffs are huge, driving, and upfront. Songs maneuver crisply through choruses and bridges, avoiding the meandering that plagued previous efforts.

    Jourgensen's covers are usually all-party time, but this album holds no hope for and finds no joy in America and expresses it brilliantly.

    While there's nothing here as dense and biting as the Ministry slams of Bush Sr. in the '90s, Jourgensen can still pile on the jackhammer beats and clever samples.

    This is easily the best Ministry effort put forth. T'would be a shame if it were truly the final work. This is penultimate vengeance at its best. Please give us the final stroke. We need it. "In a time of universal deceit, telling the truth is a revolutionary act." - G. Orwell… Expand
