MINISTRY - Relapse (CD)

This is the release that marks the return of Al Jourgensen's pioneering Industrial band, 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 Mol , 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, Reaching back to his punk rock roots, Jourgensen and his Ministry pirates cover S.O.D's "United Forces" - a track written 20 years ago still relevant today as a call to arms for the unrighteous and to those who feel disenfranchised by the "system" as it stands today.
