 Music : Greatest Fits   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-05)
The influence that doombringers Ministry have had on much of the industrial new-wave should not be underestimated, so it's fitting that Greatest Fits--a compilation of memorable back-catalogue moments--is released in 2001.
That being said, 'Greatest Fits' is a pretty thorough compilation...
Before Ministry were dropped by their Warner label, they decided to release a "best of album", dubbed "Greatest Fits", respectively.

 Comedy Gags Jokes - Roy D Mercer – Greatest Fits
The exception to the rule is Roy D Mercer Greatest Fits, the seventh collection of crank phone calls comedy CD by this very talented crank call and improv artist.
Greatest Fits features 3 new phone calls (Bank Deposit, the least successful, Girl’s Shoes about a boy who ended up with a pair of girl’s shoes, and the very bizarre –and questionable—Unlucky Charmer where some poor guy is accused of getting an underage girl drunk.)
The last two cuts on Roy D Mercer Greatest Fits are Horse Feed having a Viagra effect on horses, and a not so successful mix of a crank call and a musical track from Charlie Daniels which is kind of like listening to a country tune and a phone call at the same time.

 AMZ - August, 2001 - Ministry
"Greatest Fits" says it all, but not nearly enough -- but as far as the bands' "hits" collection, necessary, integral and vital for all who've embraced a technological vision to move forward.
Ministry's heavy-edged, techno-laced style of Industrial angst grew to feverish heights at around the time "The Mind Is A Terrible Thing To Taste" first poisoned the airwaves back in '89.
Ministry made a lot of noise, here, there, and in more ways than one, they had grand machinations attached to their music -- the art of noise for all the world and "Greatest Fits" captures the best moments of another band that may never be fully appreciated till well after their time.

Listening to The Greatest Fits, their career retrospective, reminds the listener of the grunge movement that made high-calibre music for mainstream consumption (and that has not been replicated in force and numbers since 1995).
And, in a way, all the songs on this compilation are new since the twelve previously released tracks have been re-recorded and remixed for inclusion.
The Greatest Fits is intended not just as a standard “best-of” compilation album, but also as a look back at the days when the Headstones were not quite as well known as they are today.

In 2001, their label Warner Brothers decided to release a compilation album of the band’s years for the label including a new song for the Steven Spielberg film “A.I.”.
“Greatest Fits” is a thirteen-track collection of the band’s years from albums like 1988’s “The Land of Rape & Honey” to their 1999 release “Dark Side of the Spoon”.
“Greatest Fits” is a very good compilation for people who are interested in Ministry but it isn’t complete since there are some tracks from the Warner Brothers years including the 1986 album “Twitch” that are missing.

 Untitled
Industrial pioneers Ministry have collected their many of their greatest hits along with a new song from the Steven Spielberg movie “A.I.” They were one of the first groups to mix heavy guitar riffs with synthesizers and drum tracks to create an intense, aggressive and dark type of dance music.
Greatest Fits is not a comprehensive retrospective, since it only includes songs from 1988 forward, and doesn’t include the band’s first four albums.
Her vocals fit perfectly with the complex sonic palette constructed by guitarist and synth programmer Chris Telkes.

 Reggae Reviews, Maytones Greatest Hits
The Maytones bring us the beautiful harmonies and melodies that was indicative of the reggae genre of the 70's, where an emphasis on the rhythm guitar was the style of the day.
Their Greatest Hits CD compiles the very best of these works on one CD, and listening to it one has a feeling of general well being.
The Roots duo style of the Maytones was a perfect match to their deep cultural lyrics sung with the heavenly harmonies, featuring the top accompaniment of Jamaican's best musicians, including the Revolutionaries.

What can you really say about a "Greatest Hits" collection other than most of what should be on there is there… would've been cool though to see 'em throw on an "Effigy" or "I Wanted To Tell Her" just for kicks considering their knack for going against expectations.

 Ministry: Greatest Fits - PopMatters Music Review
Whatever it was, it hopefully doesn't apply to Ministry, the prodigal sons of smack-infused industrial metal whose recent best-of release, Greatest Fits, shares a serendipitous birth with another albeit more egregious Second Coming -- that of the nearly-illiterate Yalie/Texan who has ascended to the highest rank of American politics, President Dubya.
Forget that Spielberg's A.I. might have been the usual technically precise, thought-provoking exercise we expected and heavily anticipated from the late Stanley Kubrick, whose Full Metal Jacket is sampled in Greatest Fits' "Thieves" -- that's not the type of farce I'm speaking of.
So let's look past Greatest Fits to their next original release, and then we'll see whether or not the conspiracy makes sense.

Greatest Fits [PA] Music CD is available from Bestprices.com
Presenting tracks dating back to1988, when Ministry mastermind Al Jourgensen decided to get hyper-aggressive with his increasingly metal-tinged industrial music, GREATEST FITS is an aptly named collection, since it offers a sampling of the band's fiercest work (up to 2001).
With the exception of the scathing opening track, "What About Us?," (featured in the film A.I.), GREATEST FITS moves in (roughly) chronological order.

 Ministry Release a Greatest Fits Collection (NY Rock)
The Greatest Fits album comprises 13 cuts of prime Ministry music spanning their Warner Bros. career from 1987 to present.
"Greatest Fits presents a cross-section of Ministry music for people who might not be familiar with Ministry but become exposed to us through A.I. And of course we couldn't bear to just have album versions of everything, so there are a couple of tasty things to be found for sure."
The band is currently in the studio working on new material, for an early 2002 release and plan to tour this fall.

Those of you with good memories (or at least tendency to read this site in some kind of order) will of course remember that Ministry have for all their sins, produced a synth-pop album (Work For Love) and an EBM disc, too (Twitch), plus a few singles in a similar vein.
Even if they were (and they are far from totally devoid of merit), they wouldn't fit it all that well.
From 'The Land of Rape and Honey' we get 'Stigmata', which is essential, and the title track, the most electronic track on offer here by far, but ballsy enough to fit in.

 Ministry "Greatest Fits" CD review on AudioRevolution.com
With scorching guitar sounds, breakneck beats, insane programming and politically-charged vocals, Ministry is one of those bands that can make you do things you never planned on simply through the awe-inspiring power of their death rock.
Midway through the cut, it breaks down to a musically sparse moment featuring some news commentary, seemingly recorded from television, and then explodes into a 180 beat per minute thrash-fest that is specifically designed to start a mosh pit anywhere, anytime.
The version of "So What" on the album is live, which is a good decision for the Greatest Fits record.

"Greatest Fits" takes some of the best pranks from the first 6 volumes of the "How Big a Boy Are Ya?" series and combines them into one sweet package for the consumate Mercer fan and/or neophyte to enjoy.
Also great is "Dead Trees" where Roy calls a woman requesting compensation for several trees that died thanks to a herbicide advertised in a newsletter that the woman suggested.
