Ministry Plans 'The Squirrely Years Revisited' Album, North American Tour

Ministry, led by Al Jourgensen, is revisiting their early synth-pop era with the upcoming album 'The Squirrely Years Revisited', set for release on March 28 via Cleopatra Records. This album will feature reworked versions of classic tracks like 'Everyday Is Halloween' and 'Work For Love', along with new music videos. To celebrate this new project, the band will embark on 'The Squirrely Years Tour' starting April 29, with support from Nitzer Ebb and My Life With The Thrill Kill Kult on various dates. Tickets for the tour will go on sale on February 14. Jourgensen expressed his desire to take ownership of his early work, stating, 'Since I hated my early stuff for decades, I decided to take ownership of it and do it right.' This album follows their 16th studio release in 2024 and precedes a final album planned for 2026.
