CAN'T WAIT!!!
Ministry frontman Al Jourgensen recently told Billboard that the band are planning to embark on European, Japanese, Australian and U.S. tours in support of their upcoming new album "Animositisomina", which will see a release through Sanctuary on February 24th. The band are planning to play two hour sets on the tour and have recruited an eight piece live band to perform the 23 song sets.

I hope Montreal is on the list. I'd love to see them at the Metropolis. |

Wow, sounds good. Psalm 69 is definately one of my favorite industrial rock cds. I'm looking forward to hearing their new stuff. I also found this quote interesting:
quote: recruited an eight piece live band to perform the 23 song sets
They used to stress so much how it was just the two of them making all the sounds... I think it even stresses that in the linder notes of one of their discs. Just found that odd. How have they toured in the past? |

With full bands, someTIMes with 2 drummers. They are so kewl live. One of the best shows I ever saw at the OLD 9:30 Club. They may do it all on the CD's but live it takes alot of manpower to create that sound without resorting to alot of tape recordings. I for one and happy they DO NOT do that. It is such a cop-out to me. I can listen to the CD at home, I go to a show to see the music performed!! |
