That run from 1989 to 1994 is pretty awesome, IMO. I think he proved how crucial he was to the DK's overall musical character, despite not being a musician.

The quality is pretty consistent across the board, but I might just give it to the D.O.A. collab, which is a stomper from start to finish.

Which particular flavour of post-DKs Jello do you enjoy the most?

THE SKY IS FALLING AND I WANT MY MOMMY

Honestly, I prefer it to all Dead Kennedys output. it just hits all the right spots for me

Rank:

1000 Homo DJs
Lard
NoMeansNo
DOA
Tumor Circus

Those 3 longish tracks on the B-side of the Nomeansno LP are some of my fave shit by the band ever.

Gotta go with Lard.

While a liked all the other albums listed above they were one and done. Lard had a good EP and two very good albums during peak Ministry.

Special shout out to Tumour Circus just cause I feel like it's overlooked and seldom talked about.

Musically great yes (I LOVE SPBT), but I think Biafra's vocals distract from it too much; distract from most if not all of those records actually. He's really only good in DK, and would be acceptable in a Robert Calvert era Hawkwind or Sparks cover band.

Melvins?

The first two tracks on Never Breathe What You Can't See are the apex of his post-DK time for me.

Of the listed choices, NoMeansNo. Lard, like Ministry itself, has aged poorly.

I Never bothered with the DOA stuff. The Mojo Nixon collaboration was fun, and LARD and Tumor Circus were both decent efforts.

I've always enjoyed snarky/satire/humor preachy-Biafra to angry preachy-Biafra. The humorous stuff always went down better than the bitter/angry stuff - which for him just comes off as whiney.

I'll go with Tumor circus; A SPB + Charlie Tolnay combo is hard to beat, even if Biafra's voice doesn't completely fit there.

LARD, but I would have voted 1000 Homo DJs if I could have.

I really love Dead Kennedy's but I'm otherwise completely uninterested is listening to Biafra's quasi-intellectual verbal diarrhea.
DK set the bar high, and Biafra is really annoying.
