Ministry: Enjoy The Quiet - Live At Wacken 2012 La version sur 2CD/DVD en Norme édition. Cette édition particulière a été publiée en Europe, Royaume-Uni et États-Unis dans la maison d'édition UDR En collaboration avec EMI Le 12 août 2013.

Ministry are back with a great live album from the last show of the 2012 "Relapse" tour. When frontman Al Jourgensen took the stage at the Wacken Open Air Festival on August 3, 2012 in front of 75,000 screaming fans, he was still battling a severe stomach ailment. Nevertheless, he took the Wacken show with great aplomb, along with a band of talented musicians and close friends who enjoyed playing together. Longtime Ministry guitarist and Jourgensen's best friend Mike Scaccia tragically passed away barely five months after recording tracks for Ministry's last album From Beer to Eternity. The album is scheduled for release on September 6, 2013. "Mikey played divine at Wacken," says Jourgensen. "His guitar playing was the heart and soul of Ministry and he loved the band more than anyone - including me. He was the one who convinced me to keep going when I wanted to quit." The album is dedicated to Scaccia's memory, as is Ministry: Enjoy the Quiet: Live at Wacken, which will be released in time for the already sold-out Wacken Open Air festival in Germany in early August 2013. Jourgensen says: "This recording is not only a great record of Mikey at his best, in his element, enjoying the best time of his life, but it is also one of the last official live recordings of the band ever. If you haven't seen the tour, you'll see what you've been missing. And if you were there, you'll see a piece of history and get a great souvenir - or a nice coaster - with the record." Ministry: Enjoy the Quiet captures all the exaggerated chaos of a Ministry night out in all its kinetic glory. Ministry's fourth live release is their best yet. All the band members were in great form and the chemistry between the musicians had the audience captivated. "The show in Wacken was unique," says Jourgensen. "The audience was great and the band was so precise and heavy. They took everyone's breath away." Usually bands at big festivals attract special attention just by playing their greatest hits, while audiences tend to be dismissive when bands play their current material. But the crowd at Wacken was enthusiastic as Ministry blasted through songs from 2012's Relapse album (concert opener "Ghouldiggers," "99%ers" and the title track) to "New World Order" from 1992's classic 69: The Way to Succeed and the Way to Suck Eggs. Wacken 2012 was Jourgensen's second appearance at this legendary festival. Ministry played here in 2006 as part of the Rio Grande Blood Tour with Amon Amarth, Celtic Frost, Children Of Bodom, Carnivore, Six Feet Under and many others. With over 16 million records sold worldwide, six Grammy nominations and the utmost respect from industrial and metal bands such as Nine Inch Nails, Slipknot and Korn, Al Jourgensen has earned the title "Godfather of Industrial Metal". Subversive, political, and always ready to create new kinds of destruction, Al Jourgensen remains the voice of the "anarchy generation" - and this at a time when most rock veterans have moved on to releasing half-hearted albums and annual greatest hits shows to keep their mansions.
