Heavy metal band Ministry has just announced their final show of the year, a concert streaming featuring a full band, including founder Al Jourgensen, drummer Roy Mayorga, guitarists Cesar Soto and Monte Pittman, bassist Paul D’Amour, and John Bechdel on keyboard. This full band and a number of possible special guests will appear on the streaming platform HITKOR live on November 20 later this month. Ministry advertises a setlist featuring classic hits from the band’s extensive forty-year-long history as well as new tracks from the band’s newest album Moral Hygiene, which was released early last month on October 1st. 

Ministry’s first-ever exclusively-online performance follows close after the conclusion of their Industrial Strength Tour, marking the 30th anniversary of their landmark album The Mind Is A Terrible Thing To Taste in April and their appearance at the Louder Than Life Festival in September. Ministry also gave a once-in-a-lifetime performance at the Blossom Music Center in Cleveland, sharing the stage with esteemed artists Nine Inch Nails and Nitzer Ebb. 

This special streaming event comes as recompense for the cancellation of the multi-country European tour that was supposed to launch earlier this fall due to unforeseen circumstances. Al Jourgensen, the frontman and creator of Ministry, reflects, “We never intended for Cleveland with NIN to be our last show this year. Due to circumstances beyond our control, we had to cancel Europe, but we didn’t want to end 2022 without one last show, and this will be one for the books.”

Tickets for the live stream are already on sale and available only at HITKOR.com. General LIVE tickets are $17.99, which fans can use to both stream live and access on-demand, ALL ACCESS passes are $19.99 and allow fans to watch the stream plus be able to access “bonus, behind-the-scenes content prior to the main show, as well as an exclusive interview with Ministry.”

On March 27, 2022, Ministry’s Roy Mayorga teamed up with The Melvins to perform two Melvins classics, “Hooch” and “Honey Bucket,” in a show in Austin, Texas.
