Music Groups - Ministry
Ministry was an American industrial metal band founded by frontman Al Jourgensen in 1981. Originally a synthpop outfit, Ministry changed its style to industrial metal in the late 1980s. Ministry found mainstream success in the early 1990s with its most successful album Psalm 69: The Way to Succeed and the Way to Suck Eggs (1992) and touring as part of the Lollapalooza festival. After 27 years of performing, Al Jourgensen decided to retire the band as of 2008.

I'm with Chubby here. The Sire Records era (1987-92) was their peak, then they lost their way for a looooong time. The overtly political stuff of the last decade was more a cynical attempt to sell records than it was a genuine howl from the heart. (The music itself offered nothing particularly new.) -- Submitted By: (Soggy9000) on May 15, 2011, 12:36 pm - (2 votes)

Never boned. They evolved with the times, and frankly, I think the anti-Bush trilogy was some of their best work, especially when compared to the 3 albums that came before it (filth pig, dark side of the spoon, animosity) -- Submitted By: (Googalslosh) on April 4, 2011, 6:42 pm - (1 votes)

Ministry's Anti-Bush Act after not being able to put out a decent album after Psalm 69 in 1991 was an entire Era of Boning for them. The post Psalm 69 era 1992-2001 and then the 2002- present era of Bush basing in every song... Really a sad state of affairs after making a few great albums in the late 80's and early 90's, pass the trout to Al Jourgenson... -- Submitted By: (Chubby Rain) on February 7, 2010, 12:29 pm - (-1 votes)
