Ministry set to release 16th studio album, share new single along with music video
Derick Smith
Official press release:
As the world continues hanging on by a thread through pandemics, wildfires, climate change, social-political chaos and social media-fueled conspiracy theories, at least there's Ministry to get us through. Industrial provocateur Al Jourgensen is ready to unleash his latest missives with Ministry's groundbreaking 16th album, HOPIUMFORTHEMASSES, slated for release March 1, 2024 via Nuclear Blast Records.
Pre-order HOPIUMFORTHEMASSES here.
Today, the six-time GRAMMY® Award-nominated multiplatinum act gives the first taste of the new material with the official release of "Goddamn White Trash," featuring Pepper Keenan, a song that made its debut on Ministry's headline tour earlier this year.
See the video for "Goddamn White Trash," directed by Dean Karr below.
Jourgensen shared the following:
Just like you or anybody else, I'm simply a passenger in this lifetime. I'm watching social changes, political changes, and economic changes, and I comment on them because I do have a First Amendment right. A lot of people say artists and athletes should shut up and play ball. No, I'm on this trip too. If I see something, I say something. That reflects on where each album goes. Instead of staying sedentary and singing about broken relationships, inner turmoil, or whatever is hurting this week, I comment on what's going on from the perspective of a fellow passenger.

1. B.D.E

Band went down the shitter when Paul Barker left. Retire already, Al, you marxist junkie piece of shit.
"^cries about beer cans; couldn't make it past 12th grade." Peetty original. Never heard this one before.
Cringe. Psalm, Houses, Rio and Last Sucker were inspired albums, and had an lyrical opinion a lot of people could agree on (Bush), but this is uninspired and clearly is blindly following an agenda.. Too bad, Ministry used to be any anti-government but that changed since long
Lol…all that goddamn white trash is so mad in these comments. Eat shit pussies! Pretty sure their only objective was to irritate all the mouth breathers with this terrible f*ckin song. Looks like it worked too. All you little Trump lovin bitches are fuming.
