Chris Connelly
When hardcore industrial rocker and Ministry supremo Al Jourgensen recruited Chris Connelly as a singer for the Revolting Cocks, the young Scottish lad could hardly have imagined the mayhem that was about to ensue.
As an integral part of Jourgensen's Mad Max-like mutant family of musicians, Connelly joined a drug-crazed travelling circus. Live shows were transformed into an ear-splitting redneck disco from hell, under the influence of a mind-boggling cocktail of every conceivable narcotic, with sleazy strippers and even reports of live cattle on stage.
As well as Jourgensen and all the Wax Trax! crew, the book features cameo appearances by Ogre of Skinny Puppy, Trent Reznor of Nine Inch Nails, Killing Joke, Jah Wobble, and Cabaret Voltaire.
Despite the unrelenting chaos, both Ministry and the Revolting Cocks have been immensely successful; Connelly appeared on two US gold albums (The Land of Rape and Honey and The Mind is a Terrible Thing to Taste) and worked as songwriter on the million-plus selling platinum album Psalm 69: The Way to Succeed and the Way to Suck Eggs.
Connelly's superbly written, funny, irreverent, and sometimes downright scary memoir is one of the finest portrayals of a man trapped in the eye of a post-punk industrial storm this side of Armageddon.
Chris Connelly was born in Edinburgh, Scotland, and now lives in Chicago where he has pursued a successful solo career.

As an aging hipster doofus, I find myself lazily wandering through the memories of the early 90’s Dallas music scene. Particularly it’s appreciation for industrial music. And I was thrilled to hear specific mention of the Revco and Ministry shows at Tommy’s/Industry and the Pigface show at Trees(I was an audience member looking around the floor for the pendant, although my memory has Ogre describing as a masturbating Jesus Christ, and the reward was bad coke and beer), that I attended.
The memoir was a jet speed(pun intended) fast journey through a very specific time and was filled with equally hilarious and horrifying tales. But told with wit and amazing memory. Not knowing the story of Chris’ GF’s passing, I was stunned and saddened. I genuinely hope there have been many, many sessions of therapy for Chris. Thanks for the memoir!
By the way, more memoirs should include the author laughing at their memories. It was a joyful addition.
A quick listen vs a quick read!
