Almost Two Decades in the Making Al Jourgensen’s Country Project Buck Satan and the 666 Shooters Announce Debut Album for January 2012 Release

Ministry founder Al Jourgensen has announced January 17 release date for Buck Satan and the 666 Shooters’ debut album, Ladies Drink Free.

The group, which began as Ministry frontman Al Jourgensen’s side project, was conceived after the death of Journgesen’s country music hero, Buck Owens. Owens “blessed” the group just prior to his death, inspiring Jourgensen to make Buck Satan and the 666 Shooters his primary creative outlet.

The group is known for its melding of metal, psycho-country and outlaw country elements, and the forthcoming album’s ensemble draws from variety of well-known sources, including Rick Nielsen of Cheap Trick, Tony Campos of Static-X, and Mike Scaccia of Rigor Mortis.

Ladies Drink Free will be available on CD from AFM Records through Dismantle Distribution beginning January 17. Jourgensen’s own Thirteenth Planet Records will handle the record’s digital release.
