Spin (9/92, p.102) - Highly Recommended - "...PSALM 69 takes the Chicago house-music pound and gives it the leviathan metallic crunch it's long been begging for...If punk aimed to smash discos, Ministry is about to decimate smart bars. Dance at your own risk..."

Rolling Stone (9/17/92, p.91) - 3.5 Stars - Good Plus - "...nastiness at its most Spartan: snarling guitars, hound-from-hell vocals and sternum-crushing percussion, with the occasional shock-effect sample...Ministry doesn't just ventilate its postmodern blues; it incinerates them..."

Option (Nov.-Dec./92, p.132) - "...finds the group now firmly in control of its medium-fast, techno-metal sound....an entertaining album..."
