Ministry will release their 17th and final album, Hate To Go (Take Out or Delivery), on Oct. 30 via Cleopatra Records. The band previewed the LP with the fittingly-titled single  Burned Out. 

 I'm fucking done,  frontman Al Jourgensen said in a statement.  I'm proud of what I've accomplished. I'm amazed at the path that it's taken, from With Sympathy to where we're at today, and all points in between. It's been quite a ride, but I'm completely at peace with the fact that it's done. It's time to herd goats. 

Hate To Go (Take Out or Delivery) features one final collaboration with legacy member Paul Barker on the final track  We're Still Here.  It also features Jourgensen's current Ministry bandmates, guitarists Monte Pittman and Cesar Soto, bassist Paul D' Amour, sampler/synth player John Bechdel, and drummer Pepe Clarke Magaña.

Hate To Go (Take Out or Delivery) will be available in several formats, including vinyl, CD, cassettes and digital. Several vinyl variants and box sets will be released. Fans can preorder an pre-save the album here.

Ministry will embark on an international farewell tour in 2027. The Goodbye Europe Tour, which will feature special guest Die Krupps, kicks off April 2, 2027 in Utrecht, Netherlands. A slew of European dates have been announced and will be followed by a full U.S. run, with exact dates and venues coming soon.
