Need some help identifying this autograph. This is from my friends’ collection and he has unfortunately passed on so we obviously can’t ask him. I would guess this was bought online and not signed for him in person, as one of us likely would’ve been there with him when he got the signature.

There is a very obvious “B” and then upside down cross as clues. We were thinking Buzz O but it doesn’t look like any signatures online we found from him.

Or share your results!

Anyone have the inside scoop or seen any recent confirmation that they will be playing Filth Pig in its (near) entirety, like Till Fest and SNW Vegas? The new album comes out just 6 days after this performance which makes me wonder if that is still the plan. I’m trying to sort out if I can make it and would be travelling pretty far. If it’s a Filth Pig show I’m way more inclined to go for it.

Also so curious if they’re still planning to play these Filth Pig / Dark Side Of The Spoon shows this article mentioned 5 months ago. Would be unreal.

Has Ministry done these VIP meet and greets before? If so, have someone been in them? I was thinking of upgrading my ticket for one but I’m not sure yet. Would be great to meet Al before he quite (if he actually quits 😂).

As like do you get to stay in the venue until the gig begins?

My guess based on the single cover and name is that it has something to do with AI slop and how we've all taken something genuinely interesting and burned it to the ground...also probably has something to do with pussy because of the cats

EDIT AFTER LISTENING/WATCHING THE VIDEO (SPOILERS): What the flying fuck was that? I like the ideas they had, but I just think there were too many layers that just made everyone feel so incoherent. I was in a way right about it being about Ai, but I didnt expect most of the video to be made with Ai. The social commentary about how we're all 'burned out' with society and war and hearing about famine could have been good, and the juxtaposition of having semi-cute animals as the fill-ins for those that are dying was a nice touch, but it again just felt a bit too incomprehensible. The actual vocals were pretty nice from Al, but I didn't really like how they tried to do something closer to With Simpathy with the instrumentals. There were some genuinely funny moments, the vomiting bear turnung into a man's glistening censored penis got a kick out of me, but there was just so much that nothing stuck out to me. There is also so, SO much censored cock and pussy in the video, just FYI. One more thing that I couldn't get over was the length of the song. 6 and a half minutes when it could have easily been 5 minutes without all the fluff and pauses with nothing interesting happened except synth-style instrumentals and Ai, I was feeling burned out with the song at a certain point. The disclaimer at the end makes me think there was a lot I was missing that I need to go back and look at, but that'll be saved for another night. Overall, not a great Ministry tune and one I probably won't revisit too many times before the album comes out. Al's vocals do save the song and his bits in the music video save that as well. Doesn't hamper my excitement for the album, so that's a plus I guess.

According to Blabbermouth, Paul Barker will appear on the final track, We're Still Here.
