Self-contradictory

"The album also is the first to feature Al Jourgensen's (left wing) political and personal opinions, as do many other Ministry albums." What?! —Preceding unsigned comment added by 77.122.77.85 (talk) 10:31, 11 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]

"Al Jourgensen's (left wing) political and personal opinions"-Can this be elaborated upon? The article does not indicate that the album contains anything political. The Jourgensen page only mentions his opinions about the Bush Presidents even though Twitch came from the Reagan era. And the idea that a musician's LP contains personal opinions should be a given. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Davmpls (talk • contribs) 19:19, 11 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Policy discussion in progress

There is a policy discussion in progress at the Manual of Style which affects this page, suggesting that the capitalization of "like" should be removed from the songs listed here. Please participate on that page and not in this talk page section. Thank you. — $Llywelyn II$ 18:17, 14 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]

ZDRASTITYA (Forgive me for writing in Russian)

Billboard mentions Twitch in two of their ’86 issues, mainly 22 March and 19 April. Was this album released earlier than infobox lists? Sincerely, Gleb95 (talk) 18:42, 9 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]

“Over the Shoulder” video

Tapes of Wrath credits cites Sleazy as the video’s director, while Jourgensen writes it was Storm Thorgerson who did it. So do we have to list both opinions on the authorship, right? Gleb95 (talk) 12:24, 24 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Who directed a music video isn't a matter of opinion, it's fact. It would probably help if Jourgensen commented on this somewhere so we knew which one was right. NinjaRobotPirate (talk) 14:54, 24 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Where are the lengths?

Thank you for having erased the duration of the different editions (original, CD, and the Twitched one) that I took time to calculate according to the song durations on the article (because it has to be coherent). It's nice. ;) — Preceding unsigned comment added by 92.161.11.1 (talk) 14:42, 18 October 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Why did you have to calculate when you could look for AllMusic (1, 2) and Discogs entries? Gleb95 (talk) 14:36, 27 October 2018 (UTC)[reply]
