Ministry have announced they will be releasing a new album in 2024.
Titled HOPIUMFORTHEMASSES, it’s the legendary Chicago outfit’s 16th effort and will be out March 1.
The album features guest appearances by Eugene Hutz (Gogol Bordello), Jello Biafra (Dead Kennedys) and Pepper Keenan (Corrosion of Conformity).
The band will embark on a 29-date tour in February that will have them on the road until early April, with Gary Numan as their opener.
Front Line Assembly will also appear on selected dates.
In a press release, the band’s braintrust Al Jourgensen said: “So looking forward to doing another tour with Gary and the gang. We had such a blast the last time. The shows were amazing. Each band complements the other perfectly. Plus, both of our new releases are Kick Ass! Get your tickets and come join us.”
