With their final studio album “Hate To Go (Take Out Or Delivery)” having just been announced for an October 30th release date, and its lead single “Burned Out” now streaming, Ministry have begun rolling out the dates for their farewell touring. Interestingly, despite much hype being drummed up back in 2024 about the return of bassist, etc. Paul Barker to the band for this swan song effort, a newly issued press release notes he only guests on the final track, “We’re Still Here“. That press release stated:
‘Notably, ‘Hate To Go (Take Out Or Delivery)‘—Ministry’s 17th release—features one final collaboration with legacy member Paul Barker on the final album track ‘We’re Still Here‘, alongside the handiwork of current Ministry bandmates, guitarists Monte Pittman and Cesar Soto, bassist Paul D’ Amour, sampler/synth player John Bechdel and drummer Pepe Clarke Magaña.”
