Power 97 is excited to welcome Ministry with special guests My Life With The Thrill Kill Kult and Die Krupps to Burton Cummings Theatre on May 21st, 2025!
Born in 1981 in Chicago, Ministry has been the lifetime passion project of founder Al Jourgensen, considered to be the pioneer of industrial music. In its early days, Ministry was identifiable by its heavy synth-pop material in line with the new sounds and technology that were being developed in the ‘80s. Ministry’s output began with four 12” singles on Wax Trax! Records in 1981 before the first LP With Sympathy in 1983 via Arista Records. Ministry hit an all-time high in the mainstream musical realm and received its first Grammy nomination. In total, Ministry has been nominated for a Grammy award six times. Eight more albums would follow before an indefinite break in 2013, only to be unearthed again in 2018 with AmeriKKKant and Moral Hygiene in 2021. Ministry continues touring with the brand-new 16th studio album HOPIUMFORTHEMASSES out now.
