Ministry's Al Joursengen, the acclaimed pioneer of industrial music, doesn't muck around, doesn't sugar-coat, and doesn't pull punches. He's highly opinionated, exceptionally well read and articulate on subjects ranging from politics to alien conspiracies to American history to his beloved Chicago Blackhawks/Bulls/White Sox/Bears. He is an avid follower of NASA scientist David S. McKay, ancient civilizations scholar Zecharia Sitchin, astrophysicist Neil deGrasse Tyson, and Scottish writer/archaeologist/scientist Graham Hancock.

The industrial machine that is Ministry has manufactured immense amounts of sound during it's 30+ years of musical artistry.

Their 14th studio album, AmeriKKKant, was originally released in 2018.
