Planet of the Apes doesn’t sound that sci-fi anymore does it? We wanted to push the possibilities with Ministry’s coffee, and all the conversation at the time kept coming back to doing a ‘concept album’ so who better to do this with than Ministry. The obvious takeaway is the universal proverb ‘see no evil, hear no evil,’ but we all really wanted to focus on the ridiculous parallel of the static evolution of the primate vs. mankind’s dynamic rise and primal instinct to destroy itself; the classic tortoise vs. the hare, where the finish line is the edge of oblivion and the hare is retrofitted with radioactive ‘roids. We wanted to blend these to contrast in the roast as well, hence you get a little bit of scorched earth sweetened like ripe fruit falling of the vine. But the jewel here is it’s the first time we’ve experimented with 3D metallics as noticeable in the gears and barbell piercing bar piercing the sides of the bag; talk about evolution.

| About CONCEPT CAFES: Everybody remembers that first opening riff, that mid-song breakdown, that blast beat crescendo that turned them on, and tuned them into Metal forever. With our artist partners like Cannibal Corpse, Max & Iggor Cavalera, and Ministry; we’re trying to recapture that moment of Metal possession for the fans by immersing them into a Metal coffee obsession like no other. As lifelong fans ourselves, we’re constantly seeking out the most epic Metal experiences; whether it’s records, live shows, merch, etc., so if we can maybe someday say we we’re a small part of that collective fan experience, then we’ve done our job. It’s also super important for us to illuminate the fact that these are the artists’ coffee stories, not our own, we’re just the chaotic-evil little elves that help them conjure their visions and forge them into reality for the fans. We’re not here to snobbishly push conventional coffee culture upon Metalheads either, nor we will we ever try to flip a quick gimmick on our Metal brothers & sisters to make a quick buck. We’re humbled literally everyday with this responsibility, and the opportunity to work with Metal legends. This is why we are constantly pushing the boundaries and possibilities, because foremost we believe there is no other comparison to the dedicated devotion metalheads have in keeping Metal music alive and stronger than ever! Metal deserves the absolute best when it comes to coffee! Reality is coffee culture has become basic cookie-cutter over the past couple of decades; so safe and just a shell of itself which once fueled artists and their music across several generations. We want to revive that creative fire, and as far as playing it safe…it’s metal, motorcycles, & horror…what did you expect?!
