Ministry release new song ‘Alert Level’
MINISTRY have released a brand new song!
The new song, titled Alert Level, is the brand new song from the band is taken from their upcoming to-be-announced new album, which will be released via Nuclear Blast Records.
The new song is the first new material from band mastermind Al Jourgensen in two years, 2018’s AmeriKKKant, and has a timely message as America, and the global population, face epidemics, environmental crises, political corruption and one of the biggest US elections of our lifetimes.
Speaking of the new song, Jourgensen says, “we finished the song in January and it sounded great during rehearsals for our Australia/Japan tour dates, before we went into quarantine. The original plan was to finish the new record before the July Industrial Strength US tour so we could have an Election Day release, but in lieu of the circumstances, and how relevant the song feels for these bizarre times, we decided to release Alert Level now. Considering that this song features the question ‘How concerned are you?’ I’ll be interested to see how folks answer it themselves.”
