Artist: MINISTRY
Album: FILTH PIG (CD)

Release date: 1996
Media type: CD

Filth Pig is an album by the industrial band Ministry. The album was released on January 30, 1996 on Warner Bros. Records. The title was allegedly derived from a statement made in the British Houses of Parliament, where bandleader Jourgensen was described as a "filthy pig" by one of the MPs. Despite being Ministry's highest charting album in the US, it was negatively received by both fans and reviewers, sharply divided the band's fanbase, and was a commercial failure.
