Ministry's Al Jourgensen announces the end of his iconic, industrial band. But first, one last album and tour
Briefly

Al Jourgensen of Ministry has decided to retire the influential band after a decades-long career. He is preparing for a final album and world tour, showcasing a return to the band's early synth-pop roots in their special 'Squirrely Years Tour'. While expressing contentment with the band’s evolution, Jourgensen acknowledges the need to step away instead of becoming repetitive. Although retiring from Ministry, he plans to continue working on music, particularly film scores, reflecting his ongoing passion for creative projects.
"After 17 albums, I feel like we've pushed the boundaries as far as we could go with this band. I don't want to end up like one of those bands doing the same riffs for 40 or 50 years - it just gets old."
"I know I've got one more album left in me that'll stretch those limits even further. But I don't want to end up like one of those bands doing the same riffs for 40 or 50 years."
