Lard’s Pure Chewing Satisfaction is the second landmark album of the industrial-hardcore collision between vocals of Jello Biafra with the patented wall of noise assault and studio wizardry of Ministry founders Paul Barker and Al Jourgensen!Originally released in 1997, Pure Chewing Satisfaction is a dark, frightening look at everything wrong in America, and it rings as true now as it ever has. Lyrically its pessimistic and apocalyptic, tackling topics like looking for work, the legacy of the Me Generation and their failures, to environmental disasters. Sonically, the album is an avalanche of both real and electronic drums, menacing effects galore, and layers of machine gun guitars. Not quite punk rock, nor completely industrial—this is Lardcore for the people!A must have for fans of Jello Biafra’s work and of Ministry, the result remains another classic release from this legendary collaboration. This long awaited repress now features in addition to the wide release on black vinyl, a limited solid-pink vinyl edition!Praise The Lard!

Lard’s Power Of Lard is over forty-four minutes of music by Jello Biafra and Ministry! Came out originally in 1989.“Jello Biafra and Ministry teamed up for this slab of wax. The title track is great. Imagine Ministry playing thrash, that’s what it is. ‘Hellfudge’ sounds like Flipper meets Jerry Lee Lewis, the lyrics take a nice roundhouse power swing at Jimmy Swaggart. ‘Time To Melt’ is a cool dirge / death rock type of song, but it’s too fucking long (almost twenty-five minutes). Overall this record is really good and Biafra fans won’t be disappointed.” —Thrashead, Flipside (Summer 1989)“Jello’s first musical vinyl since the DKs, and you can surely tell it’s him on the title track. He uses his inimitable vocal / lyrical style to good advantage, teaming up with Ministry’s rhythm section to produce a Pailhead type rave like Ian did on their first release. ‘Hellfudge’ takes a ‘Sex Bomb’ riff and basic rock and roll approach, and makes it work, again with Biafra’s commentary. ‘Time To Melt’ takes up the whole side (1/2 hour) and is a painfully slow, atmospheric John Cale-type piece.” —TY, MRR (March, 1989)

***Whether crankin' out some lame-ass AC/DC uh-uh, or plodding through the motions of programmed industrial disco, JELLO BIAFRA, AL JOURGENSEN, and PAUL BARKER can always be counted on to challenge the ears and scatter their enemies. Three new tracks, Rob Zombie sit down.
