Ministry - Every Day Is Halloween

[@Georgian1717]

Chicago. Medusas. 16 years old. There was an unknown band playing that night….it was Ministry…and this song sounded incredible LIVE…never having heard anything like it. The scene was goth, punk, grunge, skaters, preppies all dancing. It was AMAZING. Still takes me to that time and place. I could not take my eyes off the stage!

[@michellel6177]

YES I love Medusas and remember this.

[@debbiegum2226]

[@davidreynolds3302]

That was my sister's hangout. She took me there a couple of times. She also worked at Wax Trax for several years

[@glxtched22]

Huffing Medusa?!?! Noice Thems were peak years to be peaking you may have 5 or 6 years on me but still got to remember 70s music highschool with 80s the leave home to 90s music. It's all gone to shite. I can't fathom growing up like this generation is!!!! Dudes scared of girls. Don't even go to a club on the weekend probably never been in one period. I mean I had alot of life experience and still didn't figure it out. These kids are going to get so taken advantage of and played. We got played the difference being we gave zero F s about politics and the news. Imagine??? Or at least in my experience. I'm sure there were plenty of award people. But I thought I was so much more aware cause I was in the underground scene dooood 🤣 I miss college radio and listening to bandds no one heard of. Yada yada I'm digressing real bad. It was fun.

I liked the hard rock bands of the 70's. But I LOVE The 1980's rock. 90's rock 50/50, ok... not as much. But 1980's 🎶 I Never get tired of. 💜😎💜😎💜😎

Had to relocate to NYC for 1st job out of college in 1988. Met new people who turned me on to this music (and Moev and Sisters of Mercy, etc etc.) and life was changed for the better. We just wanted to be 'different', as do most young folks. Not quite Goth but...... Anyway, my then-girlfriend and I would sometimes go our separate ways on the weekend so--as she said to me-- "You can go listen to your freaky music w/your freaky friends" -- while she and her wealthy friends (I wasn't) would go listen to Dirty Dancing and whatnot. I was crushed when we broke up; thought she was The One, but maybe it turned out for the best. This song and others like it instantly take me back to the crazy days of my GenX youth.

It’s not about Halloween. In the early to mid 80’s people would ask us if we were ‘dressed for Halloween,’ no matter what time of year. We were a tiny segment of the youth culture, despite modern media’s view of the 80’s. Most people were way too normal! And we just wanted to keep them ‘at bay.’

Also listen to the mind is a terrible thing to taste

Shared this a few days ago with my students to introduce my favourite month and all the weirdness we are going to 'enjoy' this month in class.

Adding obligatory ironic Halloween post. Goths never die, but we do try to get to bed at a more reasonable hour :)

Ministry isn't Goth.

[@rfjohnson69]

@@lostangel17 ministries first album was electronic with goth undertones. Listen to effigy and this and tell me it is not goth.

[@lostangel17]

@@rfjohnson69 most of there earlier music was just synth-pop, that's not a goth genre of music i also what to add that this sound is actually mocking goths.

[@rfjohnson69]

@@lostangel17 I am not going to argue the minutiae of relatively arbitrary classification of music. You are welcome to your opinion, it is definitely electronic, but I would put it under goth (in the same way other bands of the era (DM, Joy Division, etc) had electronic sounds with heavy goth undertones. Or were goth with Electronic undertones.

Just heard this song for the first time Halloween 2022🎃. Great song and video

This was the days before Ministry turned straight up industrial metal.

And when Al was still British.

Iconic track. Will forever love this band 🤘

Saw Ministry in concert at Numbers in Houston TX 1989 I believe...so good

[@residentgomez]

that must have been EPIC

[@michaelmcvicker3349]

I was there with you then. 🆒️

[@michaelmcvicker3349]

Real shit and I'm actually having a flashback right now listening to a club mix from xcess in the 80s

[@tc9869]

@@michaelmcvicker3349 Love it! They use to broadcast on one of the radio stations from 6400 and one other club that was actually in an old movie theater I think, can't remember the name, I still have some tapes of those broadcasts somewhere

[@Gildedbutterfly1976]

So classic. They used to play this at Industrial underground clubs in the early 90s and we would run to the dance floor. 😂 Edit: It's pathetic that I cannot even post a comment about a song and the memories that I had with it without so many people leaving nasty comments. It's hard to like these current times.

[@starvingbuddha7622]

Sheels1976 Ha ha, this was my life through the nineties... what a great time!

[@darlalathan6143]

They still do! I danced to this last Saturday in an art gallery!

[@guyboost7311]

This Song was inspired by Peek A Boo DEVO posted by grapesarefun9000 ! And Hermann Munster Recommend s you watching The DEVO video Hermann Munster would say Goodie Goodie !

[@rtvrn_to_monke]

Facts 👏🏿

[@abelmontalvo4052]

They played in the late eighties in Houston clubs also

[@bradbennett67]

got this on 12 inch. double side. wax trax records. never gets old. freak your neighbors out and play it on Halloween. never seen the vid before, though! major thanks!

[@francoisross2480]

George Bennett, Sweet.. So did I, many years ago..

[@GodTriggeredCognition]

he's embraced his with sympathy days now, he was just embarrassed for faking an English accent... but at the time, every song on the radio was British - it was the so-called '2nd British invasion' with the fab five (Duran) leading... so it was almost a requirement to sound British if you wanted to compete with that and become famous! Music was so diverse at this time, it was before the genres began merging in the 90's, it was rare at that time for artists to go beyond their genre, so when he 'flipped' to speed industrial he needed to 'shed' the older synth pop persona, otherwise the hardcore scene wouldn't have accepted him.

[@sant-antonioterranova7870]

kzbin.info/www/bejne/e5jPmJ1tbLljqM0 and DEVO stills rocks on ! plus i heard both re mixes back to back in 1985 on 91.FM WWUH

[@dmax3270]

Wax Trax, Denver???

[@AgentXPQ]

Like most of us, I am here for the song. It's a pity the video was uploaded in such poor quality, because if you look, the old cartoon footage is beautifully in time with the music. A serious tip of the hat to Blake Banks.

[@jumpfart666]

go back in time and re upload it in better quality

[@bond816]

Some of the cartoon characters were dancing in time. Props to Blake Banks. I just saw the skeltons dancing and was amazed.

[@nathandelaney9788]

always loved that about this video 🖤

[@dannymarie]

dancing spider man is also in sync

[@grzybowestopy]

This is "The Skeleton Dance" from 1929 by Walt Disney and Ub Iwerks. This "Blake Banks" guy has nothing to do with it (yet he claims he's created this video)
