"I dug Ministry. Except the f---ing cow heads and animal parts. All that s--- they had stunk." --Ice Cube

In an interview with Spin magazine, the rapper reminisced about sharing the second-ever Lollapalooza bill with non hip-hop artists.

On This Date in 1992: The album 'ΚΕΦΑΛΗΞΘ,' also known as 'Psalm 69: The Way to Succeed and the Way to Suck Eggs,' by Ministry, is released.

The Almanac Advises for July 14: "Historians have written countless reams on the colorful sexual practices of ancient Greece. Many amorous customs that would be considered unconventional to many in our day and age were seen as unremarkable and commonplace to Greek society."

Ministry frontman Al Jourgensen is riding in his tour bus on the way to the first stop of the band's farewell tour, when he tells Spinner that he will no longer be a part of a band because he's "too old, too wrinkly and I don't want to get addicted to Botox."

"Now just seems right," Jourgensen says. "I'm turning 50. [President] Bush is leaving office. I'm really tired of the touring thing. I'm tired of doing press. I'd rather just pick and choose my spots, do production, run my label, stay at home with my two Labradors -- Ozzy and Lemmy. I'm over it. That's for young people and I'd like to get other young people and mentor them in a sense. That's basically what our label's gonna be -- just making sure kids don't become an idiot like I was when I was young."

As for the Bush name check, Jourgensen has been an outspoken opponent of the Bush family since 1993. To that end, Jourgensen's latest album, 'The Last Sucker,' features a grotesque picture of the current president on the cover. "If I would been old enough to make records in the '30s, I would have been against their grandpa, Prescott Bush, too, who made all his fortune by banking with the Nazis," Jourgensen says. "The family's pretty evil. I've been on to them for a long time. I keep my eye on them."

Rogue Wave, 'Asleep at Heaven's Gate'
Major technical issues forced the band to rerecord most of this disc, but they managed to release some of the best tracks.

'Requiem,' Killing Joke
From 1980's 'Killing Joke'

This is the best song ever written. The hardest thing in the world is to write a slow song or a ballad, and still make it powerful. Which is probably why most artists don't even attempt it -- it's too hard to achieve. I tried it with Ministry's 'The Fall' and 'Scarecrow,' so I know how hard it is. But 'Requiem' by Killing Joke is a thousand times more heavy and powerful than most of the thrash metal, in-your-face music that's out there now. This song will last for eternity. It's magical and immortal. I've been driving down the highway, heard 'Requiem' come on the radio and pulled over just so I could listen to it. I can't say that about any other song. It's a true masterpiece.

Hear the song after the jump.
