After 12 albums and 27 years (including four Grammy nominations (2006 Lieslieslies, 2005 The Great Satan, 2000 Bad Blood and 1993 N.W.O) Great Uncle Als decided that the MINISTRY garage is ready to close its doors, leaving The Last Sucker as his 12th, and absolutely final, Ministry studio offering.
"I think the synchronicity of it all is amazing," says Jourgensen. "Here we are, all coming to a boiling pop. Bush is leaving and I'm leaving, because I've got other shit to do. Its just a nice little bow and ribbon on top of the entire package"
And being the last in what has become a trilogy of government-fuelled, material, it positively spits and sizzles with grease and venom, each joint heaving under the pressure of emotionally relentless delivery.
"Let's go to the edge of disaster
Push the pedal and go a little faster"

Al Jourgensen is disassembling the Ministry pulpit after more than a quarter-century, but the final tour is going out hellfire-and-brimstone-style. Ministry’s recent (but certainly not last) CD, Cover Up, unleashed trademark vocal menace and punishing beat on “Bang a Gong” and other flashback favorites, a good indicator of what you’ll hear between “N.W.O.” and “Just One Fix.” (Ah, for the days of “Stainless Steel Providers”!) Swedish thrashers Meshuggah and Las Vegas metallicos Hemlock open. – Margaret Moser more at austinchronicle.com
