Ministry head honcho Al Jourgensen recently sat down for a lengthy video interview with MP3.com. Filmed in Al’s hotel room on the eve of the band’s final performance in San Francisco, the chat centers on the end of Jourgensen’s long-running band, and what, exactly, he plans to fill his time with post-Ministry. Aside from a cameo from Al’s dogs, Ozzy and Lemmy, the interview features some typically candid Bush bashing, and plenty of discussion about Jourgensen and company’s recently released Cover Up collection, and the forthcoming Revolting Cocks record.

This is a genre I don’t think I have ever covered on Metal Martyr because there is already an Industrial Music Channel here at b5Media. Now some people would argue that Ministry is Insustrial and I’m not sure what else to call it because that’s what it sounds like to me.
Anyway, Al Jourgensen put together a cover album with contributers such as Fear Factory, Prong and the Late Paul Raven. Here is the actual press release:
