The Land of Rape and Honey represented Ministry's stylistic breakthrough, combining assaultive percussion, samples, synths, and (sometimes) crunching guitars with distorted, barking vocals. For all the emphasis on the group's metal/industrial fusion, it's really only the first three (and best) tracks on Rape and Honey -- "Stigmata," "The Missing," and "Deity" -- that employ guitars extensively. The remainder of the album merely suggests heavy metal aggression through its electronic and sampled elements; it is far more industrial in feel, even though it's just as dark. Ministry was the industrial band that, more than any other, appealed to metal fans, and it was The Land of Rape and Honey that began to lay claim to that status. ~ Steve HueySpin (5/01, p.112) - Ranked #43 in Spin's "50 Most Essential Punk Records" - "...Industrial disco for high school stage-crew guys with tab-a-day acid habits....'Stigmata' is the prototype: gigantic metal riffs, pounding drum machines, distorto vox, and war-movie samples..."
Q (12/92, p.149) - 3 Stars - Good - "...a relentless swirl of Motorhead meets Metallica--hurtling rhythms, growled vocals and speeding guitar riffs amid a sea of distorting electro-noise and sampled effects...Raw but riveting..."
Alternative Press (8/01, p.112) - Included in AP's "10 Essential '80s Albums".
Alternative Press (7/95, p.78) - Ranked #12 in AP's list of the `Top 99 Of '85-'95' - "...in the short happy history of industrial rock...there's absolutely no denying that LAND OF RAPE AND HONEY is year zero....A seamless collision of musique concrete, dance music, sampling and heavy metal that expresses the semi-articulate anger of this generation better than any slacker handbook..."
Kerrang (Magazine) (p.53) - "[W]ay ahead of its time, marrying repetitive electronics with ultra heavy music."

Great!
While not as smooth edged as the albums that follow it, The Land of Rape and Honey makes up for it in aggressiveness.

This album is a stark contrast to it's predicessors "With Sympathy", "Twitch", And "Twelve Inch Singles". It has the hint of industrial metal, but not quite the Heavy edge that we know as Ministry now. Al Jourgenson has put together a good set of tunes here, and is just starting to peak his genius at sampleing here.

One of the best industrial metal bands
If you like music like Rammstein,Rob
Zombie or Powerman 5000 check this album from Ministry "The land of the Rape and Honey". The best album from
Ministry is "PSALM 69".If you are new to Ministry music check first "Psalm 69" and then "The Land of the Rape and honey". A++++++++++++++++++++++++

Ministry: Alain Jourgensen (vocals, guitars, programming); Paul Barker (bass, programming).
Engineers: Keith Auerbach, David Ogilvie, Jeff Newell.
In what many consider to be Ministry's peak, the band creates another wonderful album to follow The Land of Rape and Honey. Fusing thrash guitars with excellent synth and percussion work, Ministry lay the foundation for even more followers of the band's music. But what makes the album even more commendable is the unique flair and the avoidance of cliché elements that have brought down the guitar-heavy industrial-rock genre. ...

Easily one of the most anticipated albums from that year, especially after Nine Inch Nails had helped bring industrial metal to the mainstream with the success of the overtly Ministry-worshipping Pretty Hate Machine, Psalm 69: The Way to Succeed & ...

Ministry: A. Jourgensen, P. Barker.
Each new Ministry album is an exercise in stress-testing the listener, generating a sonic bombardment that grinds through the outer protective layers and churns up whatever lies beneath. The lyrics in Ministry songs often don't matter -- what matters is the tone and shape of the music, the precise way in which instruments sounds and samples are twisted, straightened, kinked, crushed, broken, reassembled, done unto, whether drum ...

| | Dream Theater Live At The Marquee CD (1993) (Import) Germany; Sweden
Land Of Rape And Honey
$11.79
1993 release on WEA International. Features six songsrecorded live at The Marquee Club in London on April 23rd,1993: 'Metropolis', 'A Fortune In Lies', 'Bombay Vindaloo','Surrounded', 'Another Hand - The Killing Hand' and 'Pull MeUnder'.

Recorded live at Le Bataclan, Paris, France on June 25, 1998.
LIVE AT THE MARQUEE is a 1993 live set by Los Angeles-based progressive rockers Dream Theater, featuring "Metropolis."
Dream Theater finally released their first official live album, the double-disc Once in a Livetime (recorded June 1998 in Paris). Granted, the 1995 release A Change of Seasons contained a wealth of live material, but they were all cover songs, and 1994's Live at the Marquee was only available as a European import. With material spanning their entire career, the many die-hard Dream Theater fans will love Once in a Livetime, but it won't win over disbelievers to their highly technical, sometimes cold style. There's no denying that the band's musicianship is top-notch, but the songs often get repetitious and start sounding similar. But Once in a Livetime may ...
