Big news coming out from cross over thrash giants, MUNICIPAL WASTE. Hailing all the way from Richmond, Virginia, USA, they are undoubtedly the fathers of crossover thrash metal, they quickly rose to fame after their debut album and now they’re one of the major cards out there. Thrash and punk comrades the wait is over and they have finally revealed their upcoming album since their 2012 chart buster album, ‘The Fatal Feast‘ that debuted #1 on the Billboard New Artists chart. ‘Slime and Punishment‘, their sixth feather on their thrash arsenal is slated to be released on the 23rd of June, this year out via Nuclear Blast Records.
Along with the album title, the release date, tour dates they have also released their first single off the album and oh boy, it sounds one hell of a junkie party where everything is just blowing off the roof. The new single titled, ‘Amateur Sketch‘ starts off with some dungeon like riff only to be magnified and set off like a freak train by the fast and relentless vocals from Tony Foresta. Ryan Waste churns out some excellent old school like riff to which your urge of headbanging won’t be denied. Clocking in just below the two minute mark, MUNICIPAL WASTE like every other song of their keeps it short, fast and thrashy as fuck. Thrash fans you know what to expect, so go ahead and jam the new song with some chilled beer.
