Thrill Kill Kult’s name originated with Frankie Nardiello, who was touring with Ministry in 1986 as a lighting technician. Frankie wrote a few songs with Ministry frontman Alain Jourgensen, who was a previous bandmate of Nardiello’s in an outfit called „Special Affect“, and one of the songs was titled „Thrill Kill Kult“. Soon after, Nardiello and friend Marston Daley began to conceive an art film called Hammerhead Housewife and the Thrill Kill Kult. The film was never completed, but the music they had recorded for its soundtrack appealed to Wax Trax! Records, who released the completed songs as a three-track EP.

Dubbing themselves Groovie Mann (Nardiello) and Buzz McCoy (Daley), they launched My Life With the Thrill Kill Kult. When the first EP sold well, a full length album, I See Good Spirits and I See Bad Spirits, followed in 1988. Both attracted attention from college radio stations and dancefloors, as well as religious groups who balked at the overtly occult imagery in both the music and the artwork of the releases. The group continued to stoke controversy with each subsequent release, which included a remix EP entitled Nervous Xians, and they became even more popular with release of the 12-inch single „Kooler Than Jesus“.

Thrill Kill Kult’s second album, Confessions of a Knife, became one of the best-selling releases on Wax Trax!, and continued to goad parental groups with song titles like „A Daisy Chain 4 Satan“ and „Rivers of Blood, Years of Darkness“.
