As Ministry’s website FAQ declares “everything it has created since its inception has been an evolution of musical insurgence.”  Al Jourgensen, the architect and provocateur of Ministry, employed a cacophony of sounds from tape loops and audio sampling to incendiary guitars and distorted vocals to confront the banal and the apathetic mainstream of pop/rock.

Jourgensen and company have done just that over the course of twelve albums and countless worldwide tours, as seminal figures in Industrial Metal and torchbearers for a genre that has spawned countless musical progeny since Ministry’s formation in the early 1980s.  Ministry's farewell concert trek, the "C-U-LaTour", concluded in Dublin, Ireland in July 2008.  Ministry was nominated for a 2008 Grammy Award in the category of Best Metal Performance.

Ministry have created a special remix of the “NCIS Theme” that is exclusive to NCIS: The Official TV Soundtrack.
