Pigface was formed from Ministry's The Mind is a Terrible Thing to Taste tour,[2] which produced the In Case You Didn't Feel Like Showing Up live album and video. For the tour, Al Jourgensen brought Atkins, Nivek Ogre and Chris Connelly. Also on the tour was Rieflin, regular Ministry drummer at the time. While Atkins enjoyed the dynamic of playing with a second drummer, he felt that the lineup was capable of doing much more than being, what he has frequently called, "a Ministry cover band." Once the tour was over, Atkins and Rieflin decided to continue working together and recruited several of their tourmates from The Mind Is a Terrible Thing to Taste tour. Pigface was born with the intention of keeping a revolving-door style collaboration with many experimentally-minded musicians, many of whom, especially early on, had recorded for the influential industrial music record label Wax Trax!. 1) Asphole 2) Divebomber 3) Your Own You Own 4) Fuck It Up 5) Hag-Seed 6) Chikasaw 7) Empathy 8) Magazine 9) Think 10) Trivial Sscene 11) Slut/Blood/Pain - The Attempted Restraint Of The Cosmos 12) Psalm Springs Eternal 13) Steamroller 14) Your Music Is Garbage Personnel on "Notes From Thee Underground: Patti Adachi – taiko drumming on 1 Martin Atkins – production, editing, mastering, mixing on 2-4, 6-11, 13, drums, triggered percussion on 1, clavinet on 1, huge drum thing on 1, vocals on 12, background vocals on 1, 4, 5, chorus vocals on 1, tapes on 2, ambient tapes on 5, record and tape scratching on 3, 4, 9, 11, Naga Baba trumpet on 3, hi hat on 7, 1/4" loops on 9, 11, phone call on 10, timbales radio on 11, artwork, collage Jello Biafra – mental illness on 5 Scott Crane – engineering assistance on 5, 6 CVC3 – engineering on 3, 6, 7 Duane Denison – guitar on 11 Mike Dillon – drums on 5 Paul Ferguson – drums on 6-9, 13 Dirk Flanigan – vocals on 4, 9 Flea (musician) – bass on 2 Michael Gira – vocals on 7, 12 string guitar on 6 Laura Gomel – background vocals on 4 Julian Herzfeld – engineering on 1, 3, 4, 6-9, A-DAT transfer on 2, editing on 4, mixing on 8, 9 Kenny Jackson – engineering on 1-3 Sean Joyce – samples on 3, "wanna come get some" vocals on 6, ambient tapes on 5 Algis A.
