Details On Upcoming Covers Album By Ministry & Co.
Posted by Mitch Michaels on 01.22.2008



On April 1st, Ministry and some friends will release Cover Up, a collection of cover songs.

"We don't just bitch about Bush and global oligarchies. We're still a rock band and Cover Up is THE Ministry party album," said Al Jourgensen.

Cover Up sees Jourgensen and co-conspirators paying tribute to some of the most memorable party rock songs, mostly from the 8-track era, and to those artists who first laid them down - Deep Purple, T-Rex, ZZ Top, The Doors, Mountain, Bob Dylan, The Rolling Stones and more.

In addition to fellow Ministry guitarist Sin Quirin, Jourgensen enlisted Fear Factory frontman Burton C. Bell ("Under My Thumb"), Revolting Cocks' Josh Bradford ("Radar Love"), and Prong vocalist Thomas Victor ("Space Truckin'", "Black Betty"). Also appearing are the late Paul Raven (Ministry/Killing Joke), Tony Campos and Wayne Static (Static X), Edu Mussi (Echoes and Shadows) and Plastilina Mosh.

The April Fools Day release of "Cover Up" coincides with the launch of Ministry's final world tour - C U LaTouR - which kicks off March 25 in Spokane, WA. The "C U LaTouR" touring line-up features Ministry's founder Al Jourgensen (vocals, guitars) being joined onstage by guitarists Tommy Victor (Prong) and Sin Quirin (Revolting Cocks), keyboardist John Bechdel (Fear Factory, False Icons), and drummer AAron Rossi (Prong/John 5). Static X's Tony Campos has recently stepped in to fulfill bass on behalf of the recently departed Ministry/Killing Joke bassist Paul Raven. Joining the Ministry clan as special featured artist will be Fear Factory/Ascension of The Watchers vocalist Burton C. Bell. Ministry will perform tracks from both The Last Sucker and Cover Up as well as songs that revisit the band's rich 28-year musical history.
