About

Industrial metal pioneers Ministry bring their synth pop heavy repertoire to Download 2020. Fourteen studio albums since their inception in 1981, including their seminal LPs Twitch, The Land Of Rape and Honey and The Mind Is A Terrible Thing To Taste and their mainstream breakthrough LP Psalm 69: The Way to Succeed and The Way to Suck Eggs, have cemented Ministry as one of the most consistent prolific heavy artists of modern times. With a new line up, incredibly full sound, and some might say a return to the roots of Ministry, the band is prepared to release a record that is socially relevant and sonically effective.

Darkcell are one of Australia's fastest rising acts and will open for Ministry in their hometown. Formed in Brisbane in 2012, the band has performed over 220 shows to date. Packing stadium level hooks and a loud, abrasive and industrial rock sound, they have been tagged as a ‘modern day Kiss’. Larger than life stage show, party vibes and dance grooves give a fun atmosphere and keep fans coming back for more.

  • 2/3 good

    by Namenick on 2025-05-20MTELUS - MontrealRating: 3 out of 5

    Thrill Kill and Die Krupps were great, but Ministry track selection was disappointing

  • loud and clear

    by LeBeatnik on 2024-03-21MTELUS - MontrealRating: 5 out of 5

    a very good show tres tres bon fort a souhait . Ministry impeccable bon son bel éclairage see u sont Ministry and Gary Numan was excellent too

  • Excellent spectacle… mais le son était beaucoup trop fort.

    by Dragon on 2024-03-21MTELUS - MontrealRating: 4 out of 5

    Je suis allé à ce spectacle principalement pour Gary Numan et j’ai été comblé. C’était excellent. J’ai découvert les 2 autres groupes présent. Musicalement c’était très intéressant. Mais le son était tellement fort que nous entendions aucunement les paroles.

  • Surprise: places assignées!

    by Rekain on 2024-03-21MTELUS - MontrealRating: 4 out of 5

    Le spectacle était excellent, mais je n’ai pas apprécié le fait que le balcon soit réservé pour des places assignées. Je n’avais pas acheté moi-même mes billets et ce n’était franchement pas clair. Nous sommes arrivés tôt et après avoir été assis au balcon, nous avons dû nous déplacer. Il aurait dû y avoir quelqu’un pour surveiller et nous prévenir plus rapidement, cela nous aurait évité de nous ramasser complètement dans le fond puisque la salle avait eu le temps de se remplir. J’ai assisté à plusieurs spectacles au MTelus et j’ai toujours eu la possibilité d’aller au balcon avec un billet régulier… même le gars de la sécurité m’a dit qu’il n’avait pas vu ça souvent. Je ne sais pas si ça dépend du groupe ou quoi, mais en tout cas une meilleure gestion de la salle aurait été appréciée. Mais sinon, super soirée, et les premières parties étaient tout aussi excellentes! :)

  • Awesome

    by Fred on 2024-03-21MTELUS - MontrealRating: 5 out of 5

    Great show Beer was good My favorite venue See you next time

  • Solid job with this very legendary concert

    by dr0id.h4rm0ny on 2024-03-20MTELUS - MontrealRating: 4 out of 5

    No complaints. Truly hassle free getting into the venue. The changeovers between the three bands could have been a total mess, but the delay was minimal.

  • Ministry at History

    by Townsend on 2024-03-19History - TorontoRating: 4 out of 5

    History is a very good venue. It was a good show. Had a great time, beers a little bit expensive. The sound is awesome. Ministry is still killing it! Love some of the new stuff too.

  • I want more!

    by Jason G on 2024-03-19History - TorontoRating: 5 out of 5

    Amazing show, FLT, Gary Numan and Ministry slayed it! Full on sonic concussion.. glorious!

  • Wall of sound

    by ben on 2024-03-12Burton Cummings Theatre - WinnipegRating: 4 out of 5

    Ministry at The Burt with Gary Numan and Front Line Assembly was brilliant. The venue was beautiful and it looked like there were no bad seats. Ministry was louder than any band I’d ever seen in concert - so loud several other people were seen to wince at the sound pressure levels.

  • Absolutely stellar show.

    by James on 2024-03-12Burton Cummings Theatre - WinnipegRating: 5 out of 5

    Extremely up beat show. Front Line Assemble arrived strong and loud. Strong show show followed by Gary Numan. This was Gary’s 66 birthday which provided a neat mid show celebration. Totally stole the show. Such a powerful set and very long. It was epic. Ministry was excellent as always. Although the new album had not been released yet, which in my experience is very rare, it was still an outstanding show. All in all myself and my peoples had a fantastic night.

  • Excellent show, not as excellent venue

    by Gdubbz on 2024-03-12Burton Cummings Theatre - WinnipegRating: 5 out of 5

    Frontline Assembly opened (set list could have been more appealing but is a personal favorite) Gary Numan was stellar. Ministry was great, guitars were on the sharper end but all bands sounded amazing! Wish closing track was Ricky's Hand with Gary but still very pleased with each act and their sets. Stage show for each band was great, and each had a mixed variety of lighting, songs, and performance. No complaints at all on the bands! The venue was good but our seats were not. Tiny, cramped, back row and the heat was unbearable at times, despite the ceiling fans and exit doors ajar. Can't say I'll ever purchase balcony tickets again, even if all others were sold out. Who fits in these tiny seats, horse jockeys?! Merch area while still accessible, was split into two areas, in the lobby of the venue. A little congested and in need of crowd control. They managed with what they could. Loved seeing vinyl records at the merch table, and bought a signed copy from FLA. Did not see any at the Numan/Ministry table though. Overall, a solid show, but that venue really, really, really could use seating redesign. I paid money to be a human contortionist for 3 hours. Yes, I know it's been this way for decades, but let's be realistic, most Winnipegers are not 4 foot tall midgets with infantile legs. Time to upgrade. The seats, not our legs.

  • Gary Numan ….. who knew?

    by Spinnerdunn on 2024-03-11Burton Cummings Theatre - WinnipegRating: 5 out of 5

    Great atmosphere as soon as we go there , a lot of older rowdy guys tho for for reason. Anyways Gary Numan blew us away , what an amazing show he put on for us. We thought Ministry was good too , Al may have nailed it in a little but all in all a great show.

  • Gary Numan Rocked, Ministry Not So Much...

    by Johnny Dee on 2024-03-11Burton Cummings Theatre - WinnipegRating: 5 out of 5

    Gary Numan's set was excellent. One of the best live performances I've ever seen! He had the crowd in the palm of his hand and got a standing ovation. Front Line Assembly were also amazing! Great stage show and great sound. Ministry's set was very lacklustre. Their new songs are especially terrible, "Just Stop Oil"was a particularly hilarious lowpoint. They used tracked vocals and sometimes Al didn't even have the mic in front of his mouth to properly lipsynch. Most of their songs are just him yelling a slogan over and over again. Sound was bad. Not impressive at all.

  • You could literally feel the music that night

    by Mark M on 2024-03-11Burton Cummings Theatre - WinnipegRating: 5 out of 5

    Ministry did not disappoint. The band was tight, and the music was loud and heavy. You could feel the music in your chest. The new album was dominant to start the show, I didn't mind, the songs were heavy and had meaning. They didn't disappoint when they played their older material and the crowd was driven into a frenzy. It was the loudest concert I have ever been to.

  • Hard!

    by Kakekaze on 2024-03-11Burton Cummings Theatre - WinnipegRating: 5 out of 5

    Industrial electronic metal - what more can you ask for at such a great venue. The double kick drums were hard! The synths were warm. The guitars rocked!

  • Great show

    by Mark L on 2024-03-10Commodore Ballroom - VancouverRating: 5 out of 5

    Ministry still kicking ass and talking names !!!!!

  • The show was Awesome

    by Tanyamargaret on 2024-03-06Commodore Ballroom - VancouverRating: 5 out of 5

    The show in Vancouver at the Commodore Ballroom was a perfect venue to see this tour. With Front Line Assembly, Gary Numan (yea) and Ministry , the music was electric and the sold out crowd just were into it. Ministry did a great set and had 2 encores The whole night was beyond fantastic

  • Positively cataclysmic excellence!

    by Pat on 2024-03-06Commodore Ballroom - VancouverRating: 5 out of 5

    Never disappoints, until the show is actually over. You can never get enough of such a great thing. The band members are always surprising gems and legends, and Al is a permanent fixture on the throne of excellence, and never outclassed. Always look forward to the classics. I never want to miss a Ministry show, Just One serious Fix!!

  • Amazing show .. great venue

    by Kent on 2024-03-06Commodore Ballroom - VancouverRating: 5 out of 5

    All bands and venue were in fine form . Great show and on time . Quick changes between all bands. The commodore could make a tonne of money selling drinks from the security row between sets. Front row GA tough to go back to the bar and lose your space . They were giving out water but would have loved a beer between Ministry and Numan . Or even a white claw … lol

  • Amazing show!

    by Mustang Sally on 2024-03-06Commodore Ballroom - VancouverRating: 5 out of 5

    This show was amazing! FLA, Gary Numan & Ministry... Mind-blowing performances from them all. The venue was perfect too.
