When hardcore professional rocker and Ministry supremo Al Jourgensen recruited Chris Connelly as a singer for the Revolting Cocks, the young Scottish lad could hardly have thought the mayhem that was going to ensue. As an integral part of Jourgensen's Mad Max-like mutant category of musicians, Connelly signed up with a drug-crazed visiting circus. Live shows were changed into an ear-splitting redneck disco from hell, under the influence of a mind-boggling cocktail of each conceivable narcotic, with sleazy strippers and even accounts of live cattle on stage. Aswell as Jourgensen and everything the Wax Trax! crew, the publication features cameo appearances by Ogre of Skinny Puppy, Trent Reznor of Nine Inches Nails, Killing Joke, Jah Wobble, and Cabaret Voltaire. Regardless of the unrelenting chaos, both Ministry and the Revolting Cocks have been immensely successful; Connelly appeared on two US yellow metal albums (The Land of Rape and Honey and The Mind is an awful Thing to Tastes) and worked as songwriter on the million-plus offering platinum record Psalm 69: The Way to Succeed and the Way to Suck Eggs. Connelly's superbly written, funny, irreverent, and sometimes downright intimidating memoir is one of the best possible portrayals of a guy trapped in the attention of an post-punk industrial storm this side of Armageddon. Chris Connelly was born in Edinburgh, Scotland, and today lives in Chicago where he has pursued an effective solo career.
