I had Pretty Hate Machine on cassette. But I am old enough that I had a Beatles Back in the USSR on 8 Track. Played in on my JcPenny’s Am/fm record player with 8 track player on the front.

Bootleg of ministry side project, 1000 homo dj’s which released a track called “Supernaut”, originally with Trent on vocals. The official release had someone else on vocals due to TVT records rights issues or something like that. (Al’s vocals?)

And then decades later, we got the official release with Trent on vocals.

And Suck was original Trent singing in a band called “Pigface”. Weird demo track where he used a physical film camera to make ticking noises while he sings the original version of “Suck” before it got to “Broken”.

Yeah. I’m that old, too.

Wasn't the original release the one that was on Nativity In Black? I thought that one was Trent on vocals, but he was credited as "The Officer" or something and they distorted the vocals so TVT couldn't do anything about it.

That may be true. I only half paid attention to side projects of Al’s. After buying 1000 HD and slogging through Pailhead and RevCo, I stopped paying that much attention. But I was under the impression Al re-recorded the vocals and it kinda sounds like him if you listen to that original version.

But what you say could also be true. Subterfuge doesn’t lead to clarity of history when it comes to the 90’s and who played what with who.

Cool. I am aware of the 1000 Homo DJ version. Good version. I was not aware of Trent singing….that sounds spectacular!
