MINISTRY 'Same Old Madness' 1982 (unreleased track pre-'With Sympathy')

Uploaded on Feb 2, 2012

Moog Opus 3 for strings, Moog The Source for solo sounds. Vocals remind me of early Cure & the sequence reminds me of Spandau Ballet's To Cut a Long Story Short (see if you can ID the synth below).

This one in via El Estereo on The MATRIXSYNTH Lounge, via Dangerous Minds here you'll find where you'll find an article on early Ministry. Cleopatra Records is coming out with an expanded reissue of Ministry’s Twelve Inch Singles 1981-1984 collection.

Video description:
"Same Old Madness - Unreleased single and video from 1982. Originally intended to be a single in the spring of 82. Video was shot before Al signed to Arista. I remastered the audio in attempting to get highest quality of this video out there. I got it dubbed onto VHS in 1997 by a really good video collector who had a access to a pristine copy, that i took special care of myself and rarely played. Needless to say, i knew how much of fucking gem this video is. From my personal VHS archive of rare Goth & Industrial music videos and live performances. Archived and circulated through years VHS tape trading and Video collecting."
