Animositisomina
''Animositisomina'' is the eighth studio album by American industrial metal band Ministry, released on February 18, 2003 by Sanctuary Records. Background The album's title is a palindrome made of the word "animosity" spelled without the final letter and both forward and backward. According to an interview on Fuse's ''Uranium'', Jourgensen was bored at the time he was coming up with an album title. It is Ministry's first album to feature lyrics in the album sleeve, which prior albums did not provide. "The Light Pours Out of Me" was written and originally recorded by Magazine for their ''Real Life'' album in 1978 and it is the only song in the album to have more than one word in the title. Ministry performed the song several times in concerts in the late 1980s, but it was never released or recorded officially. ''Animositisomina'' is the last Ministry album with Paul Barker, thus ending the band's "Hypo Luxa/Hermes Pan" production duo. In addition, it is also the last album to feat ...
