Acid Horse Biography

acid-horse

Yet another branch in the rather large and twisted family tree that Ministry spawned, Acid Horse was a one-off single collaboration between Ministry's Al Jourgensen (Ministry side project nickname this time around: Alien Dog Star), Chris Connelly (Gallopin' Scorpionsaddlebutt), Bill Rieflin (Biff), and Cabaret Voltaire's Stephen Mallinder and Richard H. Kirk (for this project, named Tennessee King and Harold Sandoz, respectively). Acid Horse recorded their No Name, No Slogan single for Wax Trax in 1989; on the single, the same song was performed differently on each side, one side more like Ministry, and the other more like Cabaret Voltaire. Given the myriad of projects Jourgensen and company had going on at this time, it is no surprise that Acid Horse didn't pursue any further collaboration. ~ Chris True, Rovi
