About ten years ago, with very little experience listening to Ministry, Two friends and myself walked into a sold out Ministry show at hard rock in New Orleans practically blacked out, security was nowhere to be seen, pushed our way straight to the front, stayed in the pit for the whole show, limped home, words cannot describe what took place there. Thank You Al Jourgensen. One of my most cherished experiences.
I was working for a paving crew fixing a street in downtown chicago and there was al walking by so I yelled hey al!! He stopped,turned and raised his fist and smiled. Still waiting for you to to run for mayor al.
28:58 This words got me thinking. 30 years ago i never expected to learn something about life meaning through AL. Nice to see him alive, sober and wise after decades of hard partying. Godbless AL for being who he is.
I took m punk rock angst from my 20's, got an education in my 30's, and work for a federal land management agency to help conserve some beautiful spots in our country. Ministry was one of the bands from the 80s and 90s that helped me!
It's great to see Al Jourgensen in a lucid state of mind making a lot of sense, he's the real deal, we love you Al and can't wait to see Ministry or RevCo, in the very near future.
I was just the right age when Mind is a Terrible Thing to Taste came out. Skateboarding, learning to play power chords, playing with drum machines, etc. Ministry was this creative expression and served as an extension of my imagination. I loved Mind, Paslm 69, and Filth Pig quite a lot. Lots of people didn't seem to like Filth Pig but I really loved it. Felt more honest and straightforward. Al doesn't have all the answers but he is paying attention to a large portion of the problem and gives that spirit to his music to help keep people thinking and not accepting everything on a surface level. For that his contribution to my own scrutiny and creative expression owes a debt. Thanks Al.
Seriously worthy talk. I quit reading dystopia Sci-fi 12 years ago. ..hell even MAD MAX movies excetera....cuz reality cut me off. The psychopathic epidemic. Appreciate this interview. Appreciate MINISTRY'S efforts. 67 years old, been a fan since just one 'fix' . POWER TO THE WORKER'S
I came here after watching the Fix documentary, long version here on youtube, again. Saw it 10 years ago and it still amazes me how there are humans like Al that even though they take more than anybody and outlast all wars, they are still that creative and iconic. Like he said in the doc that William Burroughs and Timothy Leary were more of a dad then his dad. Some people are built to inspire and carry the clarity through all the haze and insanity.
I just started listening to Ministry and I was blown away by the lyrics. Now watching this interview I understand the mind responsible for the brilliance behind these lyrics.
Agree. Also just started listening to Ministry, amazing what Al talks about in this interview, very knowledgeable and aware of the world we currently endure.
I gotta tell you, if there was one musician, one artist I've ever wanted to meet, it's this guy. Awesome interview, dude. I really felt I was THERE! Thank you!👍💜
The system isn't broken it's working perfectly the way they wanted to and your old complying ministry is signed with warner brothers so laugh and lie to us all
Oh Strombo, I remember way back when we were both kids and you were just starting out, way to go bud! All your hard work and the bullshit you had to go through paid off. I know that you will always be someone who will provide me an honest interview
Even though he couldn’t give two shits for it... Al belongs in the Rock & Roll Hall of Sham. He is an Icon and a movement. First met him in Texas back in 83 or 84. He was the coolest guy in the room. If you think you are ready for him, you’re not. And he is one of the most honest people I’ve ever met.
@@hailboognish3858 , Trent wasn’t his protege. He didn’t really like him at all. Trent is good. But he isn’t the icon of that music. I went to school with the guys from Pantera.... but before Darrell was listening to Ministry... they played Stryper like music. There’s only one AL... and he’s pissed them all off... but they can’t deny... He is the reason for that sound and soul.
@@toddmorris1858 I meant more like he learned at the foot of the master, took what he learned and ran with it even farther than Ministry. I know about the Pantera history, they took a look around and decided to change rather than fade out. Cemetery Gates is amazing at the end but that whole album is fairly annoying. They put on a great show but were never in my top 10 and I resented all the media attention that was focused on them and Metallica.
A lot of musicians his age and doing it the way he did are dried up, worn out and suffering from wet brain. This guy is just taking his second breath!!! I love it...
Hell, the most incredible thing is to see people that haven't lived half of what he has, haven't toured the world, never used drugs, and are fucked up at his age. Most hardcore musicians at his age are fine in comparison, music keeps you relatively young.
Yea man. Im 38 and just getting my shit together and building a studio. I hope we can have more al-esque influenced music. Im headed in that direction
4 ปีที่แล้ว +1
his third breathe. After they fell apart in the late 90's Ministry got its second wind in the 2000's. Then they sucked and Al was on drugs again in the early 2010's and now they released another solid album a year or 2 ago lol. I honestly thought this guy was going to die before the 2000's came. Good on him for keeping up the fight with both addiction and music thats attacking the broken system we have
I can respect when an artist says he or she didn’t enjoy recording an album but I must say AL’s early stuff is what brought him much success and stardom. I saw an interview recently where he states he will at some point re-release an Album featuring reinterpreted tracks from “With Sympathy”. I can appreciate that he is finally recognizing just how much we fans love that album and early Ministry tracks. Come back to Houston , TX Soon!
Al is a cool guy and all, but he is very mislead when it comes to politics. I would take anything he said as fact, because when you know more about what he's talking about, it becomes more clear that he doesnt have all the info that it takes to make such claims. MY biggest issues with what he said is that voting for a system where your vote doesnt count is usless. He says that the system is a sham, then sayd go and vote. Doesnt make sense Al. Also he makes it seem like the left/liberals are all about education and the right isnt. If what the left is pumping out of schools and Colleges is education, Then I am Elvis Presley.
Holy Shit Alana was way off. Listening to Him talk is like listening to the reporters during the Summer of ‘20 who were downplaying Violent Riots and blaming everyone but the correct individuals. The Worst part about internet.
I’ve recently been digging Ministry. I remember rockin out to, “ NWO, “ when I was a teenager. As for the band, their sound and uniqueness is Awesome! By sound, the help to define pure metal. This being said, I typically ignore political commentary from “ celebrities. “ I’m definitely going to ignore this video, after only a minute into it. I’m 100% pro-America, and 100% against Fascism, as well as Socialism. 30 years ago, you wouldn’t have a person running for office of POTUS, under the label of Socialism. I’m not completing this video, and simply going to enjoy the music. I don’t need a celebrity to think for me.
If I could, I'd go to a Hawks game with him, talk about Chicago and what he missed from there (bars, restaurants, White Sox, Hawks, etc.), and shoot the shit about ANYTHING but Wax Trax, TLORAH, Psalm 69, drugs, etc.. He seems like such a chill guy...like a bottle of Thunderbird that aged with Napa or Boudreaux grapes. He is one of my "music you never forget" guys from my youth.
They let you vote because you are stupid and think in slogans. Twain did not know how much stupid people are in the world because he lived in pre-internet world.
That was a really great interview with Al that you did there, George. If you're ever in Vancouver and need an interview space for a band, please feel free to use my ghetto-swank pad. Cheers dude!
That was awesome. The Land of Rape and Honey changed my life. Not through its lyrics, it was the music, the controlled chaos and the energy. I've been writing & recording music since high school in the early 80's and there's a very clear demarcation in my approach & results post-Rape and Honey that lasts to this day, in May 2023, 5 years after this video was released.
But he’s wrong in terms of fascism .. for the past however many years it’s the left that are fascist and want to force you say certain things and now to certain groups or ye be canceled. The right has fascist pockets but they don’t have the cultural power like the left
truthfully honest.thats the impression I got.why are people cutting AL down??? His political affiliation's can't be used against him as a judgement......he's open enough to say things that affect his life....therefore he has nothing to fear.The Man is Honest.
What a nice guy!! Round about 30 years ago I read in a calalogue i used to order CDs about a band that I didn't know at that time. There was written: "... the highest grade of musical brutality, the perfect soundtrack for your mutant comics...". I also didn't know, what "mutant comics" were, but I ordered "In Case You didn't feel like showing up" - and since then till this day I am a huge fan of Ministry (and Lard). Recently I read Al's Autobiography, which is really exciting, funny and sometimes deeply moving, the best book from/about a musician I've ever read. I wish him all the best and to stay healthy and awake he seems to be in this great interview.
@@Ray_Koren Reading your name brought back one of my fondest memories. I fell in love with the most sensitive spirited gay Korean while living in Daegu Province. My grandmother, bless her heart, was half Korean. And she told me stories of her home town, Daegu, when I was a child. Born and raised in Finland, one can imagine how a child's imagination would bloom with vivid colors while listening to their grandmother speak of an exotic landscape free from freezing weather and having more colors than just blinding white snow. Telling you about the man I fell in love with is the subject, and he was and extraordinarily shy young man. To me, his shy quietness was a sign of our different cultures, and I wouldn't dream of making advances towards him. I learned a lot about patience from living in Finland. Close to 6-months passed before my quiet friend, 'came out'. However, I didn't understand that in South Korea, "coming out," is a term used by North Korean defectors telling a person about their original origin for the first time. His story was the most incredibly sad one I believe could ever be told. He explained how he was raised from birth in an opulent villa with a promenade leading to North Korea's, Palace of The Gods. From childhood until "rebirth," he was brainwashed into believing the current God on earth had chosen him to be an ascended servant. On the date of Rīn's rebirth, he was taken to the palace, cleansed, and left alone inside a small private room. Shortly after, Rīn, was greeted by a man who meticulously taught him what his purpose for God would be. After which, Rīn, witnessed the man commit ritual suicide. Finally, Rīn, understood his life's purpose! Everyone in the world understood their Dear Leader and God, Kim Jung-ill, never had bowel movements, because a God doesn't have an anus to shit from. My friend, Rīn. Spent 14yrs wiping Kim Jung-ill's rectum and anus as clean as a whistle. We never made love due to the trauma he escaped. Thank you, Gay Korean, for reminding me of my lost love.
When did Al go woke? If you're riffing on the same rhetoric people have been hung up on since the 60's maybe it's time for a bit of self reflection and a dive into developmental and evolutionary psychology.
Yeah it’s comical that he thinks the right are the fascists in America. The left has been the ones trying to dictate speech and what can or can’t be said .. Al is stuck in the 80s lol
He just brings to light what history has spilled out and that - no matter what your political affiliation is you can't deny what has happened with government and politics. I think he has nailed it how what happened in Germany in the ww2 era is happening now! Misinformation and fear fuel the machine....
The best AJ interview I've ever seen. Al is clearly a brilliant thinker. He gets the pyramid scheme/oligarchy. He's rebuilt Ministry with a great crew: Sin. Cesar. Tony. John.. awesome thrashers. Look forward to to even more new albums. He's been saying f**k you to the system all the way to Land of Rape & Honey. I got Mind is a Terrible handed to me on a CD when I was out skateboarding and it awakened my whole musical direction. Al.. you're still a viking god.
if you can read, go read the book of Romans chapter 1 and it describes you perfectly. There is a way out, and you can find it through the gospel of our Lord Jesus Christ, because one second in hell and you were going to regret every note that you listened to this music, and every fake little guard that you now worship.
Because he was a whore for the industry when he made those albums, and comprised his own creativity in the process. That goes against literally everything he stands for. He prefers to leave those days in the past.
3/31 Ministry in Chicago, here I come. I'd love a cup of coffee or tea with Al to learn what I can do to execute change for women in all industries. But, experiencing Ministry live will be grand enough and the perfect ending to March madness.
Holy shit I can't believe I just watched this. Al is a real guy and has some amazing stuff to say.. Time do dust off some old Ministry, and check out the some of the new stuff too.
Cyst has been removed, but it was cancerous but he is so correct on this because we never got it tested or addressed the issues that caused it. Cancer is still there and next time the cyst is going to be bigger. I love Al.
He has been denouncing "FASCISM" for the past 30 years, yet all his records are still available and he's never been jailed for his work. Who are you kidding, Al? Without capitalism and other Western Values, you would not have a music career that spans decades.
Finally a musician that isn't just going along with the neo liberal agenda. Amerikkkant is great, tracks like antifa and victims of a clowm are prpbably some of my favourites from ministry.
@@billriddle9215 Damn Bill! But yes, you are very correct in that assumption. Love Al and Ministry - but his partisanship and failure to criticize the excesses of the left is so absurd. The way he licked Obama's ass was cringe.
Escuchado poco de el Mr al jourgensen pero me parece un tipo muy original y su música pero no se lo que le a pasado la fama el orgullo y al final en lo personal las adiciones 😢te vuelven loco larga vida a al jourgensen y ministry❤
Yes he was... Al is no more awake than the people hes often in protest of... The problem is rabid statism... What political party is painted as the face of said statism is irrelevant... Check out Mark Passio and his band The Founders sometime. You might like them. For high quality audio files you will have to go to his site though. Google The Founders Band....
You are so far from an understanding of whats going on that im not even going to waste my time... All i have to say is no masters, no slaves.... @Potwheelz
@Potwheelz Why was Obama bad? Hmmm... Lets see.... Trying to disarm American citizens. Passing NDAA (originally called Patriot Act Part 2). Bombing multiple countries without congressional approval. Fast and furious program. Execution of a US citizen via a predator drone. NSA spying. I can go on.... Am i still coping out?
@Potwheelz Americans need to be disarmed so the mass murderers working for the state can what? Murder more people? Have the military put their guns down first. Then we can discuss disarming the American people.
@Potwheelz What was corrupt about Obama? Ahem *Clears Throat* lemme see, where do I start? Let's start with the fact that he had a kill list which allowed him to use drones to target innocent civilians both foreign AND domestic, without trial or judgement? A Plan which he executed for most of the latter half of his presidency! Want more? P.S I love how you liberals conveniently ignore all your politicians bad selling points! I'm not a Trump lover either. But this BS that one is more or less corrupt than the other is incredibly shallow polar political blindness.
It's good to see and hear Uncle Al clear-headed again. He's way more respectful in conversations now than when he was all messed up.
I think it's probably because he always had a good heart deep down. 💛 😉
Uncle? You're not related to him, what a wierd thing to say.
@@sdm1568 A lot of people refer to him that way. Crazy uncle Al.
@@sdm1568Yeah dude. I’m guessing you’re not a fan. Tons of fans refer to him as Uncle Al.
Agreed. Same with Trent Reznor. I’m grateful that many of my musical heroes got sober, they’re better for it

I am reading Al's book right now and in doing so, I have been led a wonderful rabbit hole to hell while checking out this awesome music!!!!!

Glad your still becoming yourself uncle Al. Great interview!
I've been listening to Al's music for 24 years and still can't get enough of this guy. Great interview
He can't he is from Cuba
@Jon Luci AKA the last time he produced anything of musical relevance.
Love his music but he's a total GOOBER!
Seriously worthy talk.
I quit reading dystopia Sci-fi 12 years ago. ..hell even MAD MAX movies excetera....cuz reality cut me off. The psychopathic epidemic.
Appreciate this interview. Appreciate MINISTRY'S efforts.
67 years old, been a fan since just one 'fix' .
POWER TO THE WORKER'S
fantastic bloke, a pillar of innovative music
Thank you Uncle Al.
I came here after watching the Fix documentary, long version here on youtube, again. Saw it 10 years ago and it still amazes me how there are humans like Al that even though they take more than anybody and outlast all wars, they are still that creative and iconic. Like he said in the doc that William Burroughs and Timothy Leary were more of a dad then his dad. Some people are built to inspire and carry the clarity through all the haze and insanity.

@triuman well, wouldn't want you to have to endure anything. Get out, Nancy. Just GTFO
I gotta tell you, if there was one musician, one artist I've ever wanted to meet, it's this guy. Awesome interview, dude. I really felt I was THERE! Thank you!👍💜
Me too
Thanks for the great interview. Al at 60 sounds good to me. Hope I can make a show to give my support to such an influential guy.
2 cool guys talking about awesome heavy music, Einstein, politics, fake news and William Burroughs - what's not to like?

The best AJ interview I've ever seen. Al is clearly a brilliant thinker. He gets the pyramid scheme/oligarchy. He's rebuilt Ministry with a great crew: Sin. Cesar. Tony. John.. awesome thrashers. Look forward to to even more new albums. He's been saying f**k you to the system all the way to Land of Rape & Honey. I got Mind is a Terrible handed to me on a CD when I was out skateboarding and it awakened my whole musical direction. Al.. you're still a viking god.
Billy Ezell you’re goddamned right.
fuck yes
He supports the very thing you think he is denouncing.... He knows his audience....morons....
if you can read, go read the book of Romans chapter 1 and it describes you perfectly. There is a way out, and you can find it through the gospel of our Lord Jesus Christ, because one second in hell and you were going to regret every note that you listened to this music, and every fake little guard that you now worship.
That was great.
Way he never talk about his early years and the 2 first Albums! Fans of synthpop and new wave we need to hear about that!
Because he was a whore for the industry when he made those albums, and comprised his own creativity in the process. That goes against literally everything he stands for. He prefers to leave those days in the past.
@@-Zer0Dark- That's too bad .. Way better music ...... Sad....
3/31 Ministry in Chicago, here I come. I'd love a cup of coffee or tea with Al to learn what I can do to execute change for women in all industries. But, experiencing Ministry live will be grand enough and the perfect ending to March madness.
Holy shit I can't believe I just watched this. Al is a real guy and has some amazing stuff to say.. Time do dust off some old Ministry, and check out the some of the new stuff too.
Check out The Last Sucker - End of Days pt. 2
Thanks Al !
one of the greatest shills ever pushed by an alphabet agency
My brother! love the music so much more now ,it is so poignant of the time
I love ministry thanx to my alcoholic parents 😀
Now it's too real for them to listen. 🤘🏽
Cyst has been removed, but it was cancerous but he is so correct on this because we never got it tested or addressed the issues that caused it. Cancer is still there and next time the cyst is going to be bigger. I love Al.
So nice to see a sober, coherent Al. Great interview. Wish he was my actual uncle. Lol
Very refreshing thx Al !
Al is so interesting and intelligent! I'd could listen to him talk all day
He has been denouncing "FASCISM" for the past 30 years, yet all his records are still available and he's never been jailed for his work. Who are you kidding, Al? Without capitalism and other Western Values, you would not have a music career that spans decades.
22:20: Einstein did not say "for every action there is an equal and opposite reaction" That was Newton.... just saying
One of the most beautiful man to ever grace the earth
Great interview. So often done by people who have no real connection to who they are talking to.
I almost thought Uncle Al was lost to the booze and opiates, my faith is restored. Very thoughtful interview that only the Strombo can conjure.
Love this interviewer
Great interview
Finally a musician that isn't just going along with the neo liberal agenda. Amerikkkant is great, tracks like antifa and victims of a clowm are prpbably some of my favourites from ministry.
You haven't heard much have you?
@@billriddle9215 Damn Bill! But yes, you are very correct in that assumption. Love Al and Ministry - but his partisanship and failure to criticize the excesses of the left is so absurd. The way he licked Obama's ass was cringe.
Escuchado poco de el Mr al jourgensen pero me parece un tipo muy original y su música pero no se lo que le a pasado la fama el orgullo y al final en lo personal las adiciones 😢te vuelven loco larga vida a al jourgensen y ministry❤
If ur not a Dem in ur 20s u have no heart if ur not a Rep in ur 40s u have no brain... Ive loved Al sence the 80s but how old is he again?
Absolutely brilliant! One of the best interviews I've seen a while!
Easily a Top 5 interview. Great job, G. :)
This is so very cool....thanks for sharing Mr. Interview Guy!!
Respect Al forever. Love this.
Nice B3!
This perfectly applies to Biden today .
I guess an Aerosmith tattoo on your forehead is not a cure for TDS. Get your wings Al...
Cheers Al!
In 2021, Al now sounds like quite the fool
Obama was immune to Als criticism.
Yes he was... Al is no more awake than the people hes often in protest of... The problem is rabid statism... What political party is painted as the face of said statism is irrelevant... Check out Mark Passio and his band The Founders sometime. You might like them. For high quality audio files you will have to go to his site though. Google The Founders Band....
You are so far from an understanding of whats going on that im not even going to waste my time... All i have to say is no masters, no slaves.... @Potwheelz
@Potwheelz Why was Obama bad? Hmmm... Lets see.... Trying to disarm American citizens. Passing NDAA (originally called Patriot Act Part 2). Bombing multiple countries without congressional approval. Fast and furious program. Execution of a US citizen via a predator drone. NSA spying. I can go on.... Am i still coping out?
@Potwheelz Americans need to be disarmed so the mass murderers working for the state can what? Murder more people?
Have the military put their guns down first. Then we can discuss disarming the American people.
@Potwheelz What was corrupt about Obama? Ahem *Clears Throat* lemme see, where do I start? Let's start with the fact that he had a kill list which allowed him to use drones to target innocent civilians both foreign AND domestic, without trial or judgement? A Plan which he executed for most of the latter half of his presidency! Want more? P.S I love how you liberals conveniently ignore all your politicians bad selling points! I'm not a Trump lover either. But this BS that one is more or less corrupt than the other is incredibly shallow polar political blindness.
We want to do whatever else is forgotten about ❤
Al is a very intelligent man. I don't agree with all of his points but he is well spoken and far from what you expect from a burnout.
@John southern hence, why I said I didn't agree with all of his points.
Great interview. Love Al, but what's going on with his upper right canine tooth?
lmao that's gotta be some shit he added like a fake nail kinda thing or something.
They are fang caps.
They make glueable and you can get permanent ones.
I just enjoyed Ministry last week here in Toronto...What a great concert!!!
Lol, he's literally describing what leftists are doing and saying "the right" while he does it.
Al seems nicer than ever, more open, like he's not under a blanket of anything affecting his mood.
in PL we don't have a live, Do your understand?
