Ministry have unveiled the track “Just Stop Oil” as the latest single from their upcoming album, HOPIUMFORTHEMASSES, which is set for release on March 1st.
The new song follows the album’s first single, “Goddamn White Trash,” which arrived in August along with the announcement of the new LP. As is evident in the title, “Just Stop Oil” is political in tone, with Ministry frontman Al Jourgensen stating, “Ministry approves this message and the movement behind it. ENOUGH is ENOUGH!”
While “Just Stop Oil” doesn’t feature any guests, other tracks on the album boast appearances by Pepper Keenan (Corrosion of Conformity, Down), Eugene Hutz (Gogol Bordello), and Jello Biafra (ex-Dead Kennedys, Lard).
Ministry will support the album with a previously announced headlining 2024 North American tour featuring support from Gary Numan and Front Line Assembly. The outing kicks off in late February, with tickets available here.
Take a listen to “Just Stop Oil” in the lyric video below, and pre-order HOPIUMFORTHEMASSES here.
