It’s time for the final nail. The swan song. “The Last Sucker”! This is Ministry’s last album not only from their George "Dubya” Bush inspired trilogy, but also in their entire discography. This is if we don’t count the upcoming cover album, of course. Sad but true - one of the most awesome and inspiring bands of the last decades will hang their instruments on the wall and will only live to tell stories to the newcomers. At least Al Jourgensen is happy that Ministry’s end comes at the same time as the end of his main recent inspiration - Da Boosh. Everything starts with the upbeat track “Let’s Go” that pretty much hints the album’s overall vibe with it’s sarcastic lyrics - Ministry’s farewell won’t be by any means medicore! The slower "Watch Yourself” follows. This is where the industrial influences come on top. The song’s about how the government watches and waits for someone to screw up, saying something against it’s policies. Like Big Brother. As a whole, the decline of political freedom in the USA and Bush Jr.’s wonderful personality are the main lyrical topics of the CD. It is not anyone else, but exactly this inspiring young gentleman who is the protagonist in the title track. Throughout the album a few samples from speeches of his where he’s like “uhhhh” and retarded can be heard. Prong’s Tommy Victor unloads the heavyweight riffage once again, even though the album isn’t as intense as the all out thrash metal in “Rio Grande Blood”. There’s definitely a lot to be heard from his playing though. The dude moves along the griff and comes up with interesting stuff without compromising with the heaviness of what comes out by any means. The lyrics are strong, too. I guess if the CD had come out earlier, the anti-Bush protest when Dubya visited Bulgaria wouldn’t have been so poorly attended (a completely random example, I assure you)... “Die in a Crash”, which features Burton C. Bell, is a punk rock song done by the books that in time transforms into something similar to Fear Factory. As for the last track, “End Of Days (Part II)”, which is also Ministry’s last song ever, it's practically a long speech about the album’s ideology, as well as the perspective for the near future with an instrumental layer beneath it. That’s definitely an album with a message. Without any doubt the new Ministry is a must have. Especially for people who liked the previous two albums and don’t miss the sound of “Dark Side Of the Spoon”, for example. A properly strong last album by a unique band. I don’t see anyone being disappointed with anything about the album besides that it is the last one.
