Ministry is a heavy metal rock band formed in the 1980's by Al Jourgensen, the original member of the band.
That's not to say Ministry had a commercial or generally accessible sound: they were unremittingly intense, abrasive, pounding, and repetitive, and not always guitar-oriented (samples, synthesizers, and tape effects were a primary focus just as often as guitars and distorted vocals).
The band was nominated for a Grammy in 2000 for "Bad Blood," but they lost to Black Sabbath and were dropped from Warner Bros. around the same time.

Violent Assault Of Ministry December 6, 2004 By KENNETH PARTRIDGE, Special to the Courant In one terrifyingly memorable scene from 1971's "A Clockwork Orange," Alex, the film's jackbooted, blood-lusting teen protagonist, is captured by the government and forced to watch stomach-turning footage of war, death, and the consequences of violence.
Ministry is undoubtedly preaching peace, but its music and presentation amounted to pure sonic and visual warfare, doing to melody and subtlety what Jourgensen charges Bush and his cohorts have done to international order.

 If Only review by The Phantom Tollbooth
I see a ministry band as one who makes the gospel its priority and sees all efforts, whether that be rehearsal, travelling, or expense being put in for the sake of the gospel, not for the sake of fame, fortune, or musical greatness.
A ministry band has to strive to live a life which is honoring to God and must make time for people to talk to them and be prayed for after gigs.
Being in ministry requires some sort of pastoral oversight and the band has this in the form of Chris Wood, who was one of the driving forces behind the band in the early days, and who encouraged the members to be more critical about their music.

 Amazon.com: Houses of the Mole': Music: Ministry   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-31)
Some Ministry fans were disappointed with the band's last few offerings ("Dark Side of the Spoon"), but on this album, they make sure they got it right.
Ministry seem to make their best music when they are inspired by politics (frontman Al Jourgensen has even said that he can only write well when there's a republican in the White House.) "Psalm 69" bashed the president at the time, George Bush, whereas "Houses" takes on George Bush's son, George W. Bush.
Ministry may not have been the first band to do what they do (and many industrial rock bands have cropped up since Ministry in the 1980's).

Now that Bush's son is in the White House, Ministry have birthed Houses of the Molé;, a disc that parallels the fury and intensity of Psalm 69.
Last year's Animositisomina was pretty harsh and cantankerous for sure, however Ministry's two prior albums, 1999's The Dark Side of the Spoon and 1995's Filth Pig, were lumbering and somewhat monotonous, shattering the momentum the band achieved with Psalm 69.

 Ministry - Chic Trib 3-28-86
In its 4 1/2 year history, Chicago band Ministry has recorded for (A) the Wax Trax label, an independent Chicago concern, (B) Arista Records, a major national label, and (C) Sire Records, another major that is a branch of the Warner Bros. recording empire and Ministry's current home.
Its records tend to be adventurous, uncompromising affairs - terms that also fit Ministry's recordings through the years - and the label pretty much knows its records aren't going to reach the Top 100, let alone the Top 10.
I mean, it's such a stupid thing to sign a band and then demand a hit right away to instantly recoup the money.
