not one of my fav's off the new one(mainly because it's too long),
but it's still pretty cool. I don't know how i could compare it to
older stuff though, i've been a ministry fan for about a month(in fact,
i'm seeing them this thursday in Cleveland:) Anyway, this song consists
of 6 simple riffs. I can't really give you the order though, the riffs
are so similar it's hard to tab out the exact order for the riffs. As
in all songs made in the 90's, it has a ton of effects, and it doesn't
sound too good unless you have a band backing you or some cool
effects.The song is in standard tuning.

riff 6
--7--7--7--7 uses only e-B-G strings
--8--8--8--8
--7--7--7--7
this is the order as i know: most of the time he alternates riff1 and
riff2, and he throws in a riff3 everyonce in a while.Riff4 is used when
he goes into or come out of a verse.(i consider the verse the part when
he's singing). Riff5 is used when they have the sample going, and riff6
follows right after riff5.
that's it.check out all my ministry tabs-filth pig,lava, and coming
soon, the game show.I'll tab even more when i get more tapes.

in my filth pig tab)
This musical interpretation has been removed due to a legal threat from Moses & Singer LLP,
representing the National Music Publishers' Association (NMPA) and
The Music Publisher's Association of the United States (MPA).
Unfortunately, these threats are fueled by greed and being masked by a "copyright infringement." They claim tab sites are
"hurting the songwriters," but it's a known fact that the publishing companies garner most of the
revenue. Instead, they would prefer you to purchase the
official MINISTRY tablature
which is an option we've always given our users. And due to the highly error-prone nature of tabs on the internet, many choose to go this route.
These companies also do not realize that tablature sites help to promote their artists.
For more information on this onslaught, you can read the
NY Times Article.
We hope one of the larger tablature sites will have the money to fight this. Until then, we urge you all to keep tabbing songs and sharing them in any way you can.
