Ministry have released a new single entitled, “Just Stop Oil,” from forthcoming record Hopiumforthemasses due out March 1. Ministry’s 16th studio album features guest appearances from such luminaries as Gogol Bordello’s Eugene Hutz, Jello Biafra, and Pepper Keenan.
In fact, “Just Stop Oil” follows the release of Ministry’s previous single, “Goddamn White Trash,” which featured Down and Corrosion Of Conformity member Pepper Keenan tearing it up on the studio version of the song.
If you’re familiar with uncle Al and his merry band of industrial metal pirates, well, you guessed it, he cut a video for “Just Stop Oil” you can watch below. As you’re about to see, Jourgensen has a few things on his mind he needs to share.
Al Jourgensen states:
“Ministry approves this message and the movement behind it. ENOUGH is ENOUGH!”
Ministry’s current lineup consists of John Bechdel (keyboards), Monte Pittman and Cesar Soto (guitars), Roy Mayorga (drums), and Paul D’Amour (bass).
