Our newest single from our upcoming third, studio album “Year of the Ox” is streaming now!
"Aries // Godspeed the Ministry gets very close to our body without fear to unlink madness with desire. What Futurist gives us in our hands is a spectacular attempt to fly into a strange dimension in which we have no control of anything. Getting into this song is appropriating a sound universe that incites madness. It is a proposal that travels the universe and goes with us in the trunk. From the United States to infinity each distorted sound of this project, which will make you fall in love in seconds nothing more."
Indie Creollo
“I wouldn’t dare claim that there are people rejoicing at the difficult last year, complete with sickness, lockdowns, and economic woes. I will say that it will surely help a lot of horror and disaster movies get more easily green-lit.Similarly, the artists that have decried the perils of an ever-expanding society, less concerned with the evolution of the species than ever before, will nod their heads and tell you that they were right all along. It pays to be ready.
Futurist has been working on a rock-opera describing the descent of mankind at the hands of its own creations for some time. The planets have aligned, and turbulence aside, 2021 has proven the ideal moment to release Aries // Godspeed the Ministry. Musically the song shares some of the elegance of prog-rock. Lyrically the tune dwells on the philosophical questions regarding man’s search for oblivion—an ambitious, highly melodic single.”
