Rumor has it the gents who make up Revolting Cocks came upon the name by their usual debauchery. Ministry frontman Al Jourgensen was out for a hard night of drinking with some friends, so hard that the bartender threw them out, declaring them a bunch of revolting cocks. The name was first applied to one of Jourgensen’s many side projects in 1985, when he partnered with Luc Van Acker and Front 242’s Richard 23 to bring art and the dancefloor closer together. As recordings progressed, things went in a different direction and the chaotic, snide, and sleazy sounds that were taking over had Richard 23 making an exit over creative differences. He departed in 1986, right as the band’s debut, Big Sexy Land, was being released by the seminal industrial label Wax Trax! The album featured the Blade Runner homage and club hit ”Attack Ships on Fire,” while the artwork introduced ”the Three Guys,” anonymous faces from an old photograph that would represent the band on album covers for years to come. Ministry associates Paul Barker, Chris Connelly, and Bill Rieflin would join Van Acker and Jourgensen for a tour supporting the album, recordings of which surfaced in 1988 on the live album and video You Goddamned Son of a Bitch.

The nihilistic party attitude of the band had now officially taken over any grand artistic aspirations, and if the success of 1989’s Stainless Steel Providers didn’t prove their audience was right there with them, college radio and clubs being dominated by 1990’s ”Beers, Steers + Queers” certainly did.
