This, the final Ministry album is an off-the-map, piston-encrusted, 12,000,000 horsepower vehicle, fuel-injected with equal parts fury, disgust, distrust & dismay; spitting and sizzling with grease + venom.

Billed by Ministry frontman Al Jourgensen as the band's final album, 'The Last Sucker' also rounds out the long-running industrial-metal group's anti-government trilogy, which also includes 'House of the Mole' and 'Rio Grande Blood'. As on those outings, Ministry attacks the policies of the George W. Bush administration with a ferocity that is perfectly reflected in its searing, distortion-laden sound. Bolstered once again by guitarist Tommy Victor (Prong) and the late great Paul Raven (Killing Joke) on bass, the ensemble thrashes through the stinging "Let's Go" and a pummelling rendition of the Doors' "Roadhouse Blues", before setting their sights on the Vice President with "The Dick Song", a lumbering number that features the tongue-in-cheek, yet pointed line "Cheney's got a gun." Like a pistols-blazing last stand in a Western movie, 'The Last Sucker' finds Ministry unloading plenty of sonic ammo before riding off into the sunset.
