"Animositisomina" is the eighth studio album by industrial metal band Ministry, released in 2003. It is their first studio album, and second overall release through Sanctuary Records, following the live album "Sphinctour".

The title is a palindrome, made of the word "animosity" spelled without the final letter and both forwards and backwards. It is also very similar to Aoxomoxoa, which is an album by the Grateful Dead. According to an interview on Fuse's "Uranium", Jourgensen was bored at the time he was coming up with an album title.

"The Light Pours Out Of Me" was written and originally recorded by Magazine on their "Real Life" album in 1978.
