MINISTRY Announce NEW Album Title & Track Listing!

Thirty PLUS years and 12 albums later, as well as a near-death experience in 2010, Jourgensen rised as a phoenix from the ashes with 'Relapse' (released in 2012 via 13th Planet).

Even though Jourgensen said that 'Relapse' was absolutely, positively going to be the final Ministry album ever. The band is working on a NEW album as previously reported by us on the interview we conducted with Ministry guitarist Sin Quirin (see below).

Ministry have announced that their thirteenth studio is entitled 'From Beer To Eternity'! Excited? We are! Here are some of the song names:

- Hail to his Majesty
- Punch In The Face
- PermaWar
- Perfect Storm
- Fairly Unbalanced
- The Horror
- Side FX include Mikey's Middle Finger (T.V.4)
- Lesson Unlearned
- Thanx But No Thanx
- Change of Luck
- Enjoy The Silence 

Here is a video of the band working on 'From Beer To Eternity', which was the very last time that Mike Scaccia recorded music.

Sin Quirin (PT1): Mike Scaccia (RIP), SUPERMANIC & MINISTRY's NEW Record!

Sin Quirin's hard work ethic has driven him to a very successful and exciting career. His guitar work with MINISTRY, LORDS OF ACID, REVOLTING COCKS, and AMERICAN HEADCHARGE, has helped all those bands reach NEW musical heights.

But hey, Sin is far from done! He recently launched a NEW project called SUPERMANIC and you can hear all about it at the video interview below. During our exclusive interview, Sin also talked about the loss of his friend and bandmate Mike Scaccia. Mike passed away this past December while performing live on stage (full info HERE).

Sin also discussed the NEW MINISTRY album, which actually features some of Mike Scaccia's very last musical work. Without further due, here is part 1 of our interview with Mr. Sin Quirin!

MINISTRY Brings The Noise To New York City - Images & Set List Of The DEFIBRILLATOUR Available!

Thirty years and 12 albums later, as well as a near-death experience in 2010, Jourgensen rises as a phoenix from the ashes with 'Relapse' -- still angry, still political and very very pissed off. Relapsing back into the music industry after a four-year hiatus, Jourgensen launches his audio assault with "Ghouldiggers," a no-holds-barred Metal bullet aimed directly at the pitfalls of the industry he has survived. Everything Jourgensen predicted on Houses of the Molé, Rio Grande Blood and The Last Sucker has transpired and as we approach the Mayan calendar of the End of Days in 2012, Jourgensen, re-invigorated by the global "99 Percenters" and Occupy Wall Street movement, navigates through Relapse once again as a reluctant prophet accusing, dissecting, cajoling and exhorting greed, corruption and lies.

This past Saturday (June 23rd), the band arrived to New York City's Best buy Theater to bring the noise via "The DEFIBRILLATOUR"! Compiling a 19 song set list that included many of the bands classics, as well as plenty of NEW songs and even a cover by the STORMTROOPERS OF DEATH, the Industrial Metallers proved why they are one of the finest bands in the history of the genre (which they pioneered). The set list was as follows:

1) Ghouldiggers
2) No W
3) Rio Grande Blood
4) Señor Peligro
5) LiesLiesLies
6) 99 Percenters
7) Watch Yourself
8) Life Is Good
9) Waiting
10) Worthless
11) Relapse
12) The Last Sucker
13) Khyber Pass

Encore:

14) Psalm 69
15) N.W.O.
16) Just One Fix
17) Thieves
18) So What

Encore 2:

19) United Forces (Stormtroopers Of Death Cover)

MINISTRY Announces A Ton Of Tour Dates For The DEFIBRILLATOUR!

Deep in the heart of Hell Paso Texas, Ministry’s Al Jourgensen re-opened the doors of his industrial compound studio in Fall 2011 and invited his favorite co-conspirators Mike Scaccia (Rigor Mortis), Tony Campos (Static X), Tommy Victor (Prong) and Casey Orr (Rigor Mortis/Gwar) to climb on board the Ministry pirate ship and de-construct and re-construct Jourgensen’s monsterpiece 'Relapse'.

Thirty years and 12 albums later, as well as a near-death experience in 2010, Jourgensen rises as a phoenix from the ashes with 'Relapse' -- still angry, still political and very very pissed off.

The band is ready to annihilate the world! Are you ready?

AMERICAN HEAD CHARGE Unleash First NEW Song In 7 Years - Listen Now!

American Head Charge is back! After seven years of silence, the Industrial Metallers are set to return to to the musical spectrum via their NEW EP entitled 'Interstice'. The EP marks the band's first NEW musical release since their 2005 'The Feeding' album.

'Interstice' was recorded at Cleveland's Studio D (with additional tracking and mixing done in the band's hometown of Minneapolis) the EP is set to include four NEW songs and a cover of the Patti Smith classic "Rock and Roll Nigger."

Listen to "Sugars of Someday", a NEW song by American Head Charge (courtesy of Noisecreep.com)

"This was a song that Chad had written during the time Head Charge was in limbo; we actually had three different singers put vocals on it prior to Cameron coming back," says American Head Charge guitarist Karma Cheema. "During the first rehearsal, we were working with Sin while Cam was out in the car demoing stuff on his laptop. Unbeknownst to us Cam wrote the vocals almost immediately and came in to play it for us and asked 'What do you think about this?' We were all pretty blown away. It's more of a radio song than we've ever written, not by design, that's just the way it came out. We're at this kinda weird interim between the past and present of Head Charge, and this song was written right in the middle of all that.

"We know it's a departure but we're very proud of it, however, it's in no way indicative of what's coming. We're not planning to make a whole record of songs that sound like this, but 'Sugars' captures a moment in time for a band that had kinda lost its way. The magic of Head Charge, really, is the core members doing what they do together, and "Sugars" is the first time since we wrote The Feeding, that we had a great representation of that. "

American Head Charge is:

- Cameron Heacock: Vocals
- Chad Hanks: Bass
- Karma Cheema and Sin Quirin (Ministry, Revolting Cocks): Guitars
- Justin Fowler (Keyboards)
 - Chris Emery (Drummer)
