"It looks from the liner notes like this cd is mixed by a studio engineer, which is a disappointment from the standard slew of bands that mix different tracks on a remix album. The overall effect is a homogenous heavy old-school industrial sound. That sounds like a good thing, but it has no punch. The songs are all mixed without structure, with the vocals too far in the background.
Don't get me wrong, the sound itself is good, but it doesn't change, or really hold your attention. This is a fine cd for party background music or as maybe part of a mix set, but you aren't going to want to rock out to it on your own."
A let down.

"I love Ministry, and loved The cd The last sucker. So when i heard there was going to be a remix i could not wait. I was sadly disapointed. The songs are all remixed in a very slow and melodic way. Gone is the intesity and angsnt of the album. I really felt for the first time with Ministry , since Dark side of the spoon, that i had wasted my money."
