Ministry - Jesus Built My Hotrod


Ministry was an American industrial metal band founded by frontman Al Jourgensen in 1981. Originally a synthpop outfit, Ministry changed its style to industrial metal in the late 1980s. Ministrys most successful album was Psalm 69: The Way to Succeed and the Way to Suck Eggs (1992). Al Jourgensen decided to retire the band as of 2008.
Todays tune is "Jesus Built My Hotrod" and its taken from Psalm 69 and was one of the band's most popular song.
The track features a driving beat and speed metal guitar work backing Butthole Surfers' Gibby Haynes gonzo vocal stylings.

The song was released a little more than half a year before it appeared on the album.
Some of the vocal samples are from movies, including Brad Dourif in Wise Blood, and Dennis Hopper in Blue Velvet.
