I was very curious to hear what classic (pre-Nirvana) alternative bands Killing Joke and Ministry were up to when I heard that they both had new albums out. I'd been a fan of albums such as Twitch and Brighter Than a Thousand Suns back in the day.
I was disappointed with what I heard out of the first singles and started to wonder if I'd simply moved on 25 years later. The best of the two was Killing Joke's In Cythera with its melodic eighties guitars in tact and alternopop vocals.

The ministry track 99 Percenters was however a painful piece of noise.
