MUNICIPAL WASTE/SSS - ALBUMS OUT TOMORROW - THRASH TUESDAY

MUNICIPAL WASTE/SSS - ALBUMS OUT TOMORROW - THRASH TUESDAY

TOMORROW, Tuesday July, 31 is like Christmas, the Super Bowl and your 21st birthday bender all wrapped up in one for thrash fans all over America. It's THRASH TUESDAY! This is the day, of course, when MUNICIPAL WASTE's The Art of Partying and SSS's Short Sharp Shock hit store shelves.

MUNICIPAL WASTE - The Art of Partying is the type of album that makes you want to tap a keg, finish it in one sitting then throw it around the house just for kicks. A throwback to the days when thrash could make you smile just as fast as it makes you headbang, The Art of Partying pulls no punches and keeps at a full throttle pace from beginning to end. If you buy The Art of Partying, you will also receive two bonus tracks and a limited edition MUNICIPAL WASTE patch while supplies last.

SSS - Short Sharp Shock is a straightforward kick in the balls that shreds circles around those who do not thrash. Fueled by anger, aggression and wit, SSS's Short Sharp Shock raises the stakes on the likes of S.O.D and Suicidal Tendencies and as Decibel cleverly puts it, "goes for the throat." Short Sharp Shock is also available on limited edition colored vinyl.

Don't walk...don't run...MOSH to your favorite music store, tear the aisles apart and DEMAND your copies of MUNICIPAL WASTE -The Art of Partying and SSS - Short Sharp Shock THIS TUESDAY, July 31. You can also order them online by going to http://www.earachestore.com/store/

MUNICIPAL WASTE COMPLETES FILMING "HEADBANGER FACE RIP" MUSIC VIDEO WITH TROMA ENTERTAINMENT

MUNICIPAL WASTE COMPLETES FILMING "HEADBANGER FACE RIP" MUSIC VIDEO WITH TROMA ENTERTAINMENT

MUNICIPAL WASTE
recently joined together with Troma Entertainment to complete a music video for “Headbanger Face Rip,” one of the many blistering tracks featured on the band’s latest release, The Art of Partying.

Have you ever wondered how good of a guitar player the Toxic Avenger is? What do you think would happen when Sgt. Kabukiman, NYPD meets “The Inebriator”? All those on set for this momentous occasion know and soon, so will the world.

Shot primarily on bluescreen, Troma made sure to film MUNICIPAL WASTE in just about every angle imaginable so the maximum amount of thrash could be experienced by all. When not playing for the camera, they played it UP for the camera, donning white jumpsuits and officially becoming members of the Toxic Crusaders. No one in the room was running on much sleep, nor was fueled by much food, so to see the band play as hard as they did in front of the hot, blinding studio lights is a testament to MUNICIPAL WASTE’s ability to thrash before all else.

After he band had wrapped shooting their individual parts, it was time to film 3 of the finest creations ever to come out of the warped minds of Troma. The Toxic Avenger, Sgt. Kabukiman, NYPD and a newer Troma character (now a band favorite), Poultrygeist thrashed around the set like there was no tomorrow. It goes to show that MUNICIPAL WASTE can fuck up even the most seasoned of oddities.

As the day wore down, all notions of this being a professional shoot went out the window, especially when the beer arrived. The shoot turned into a giant party that just happened to be filmed. With MUNICIPAL WASTE around, you never know what’s going to happen and soon Sgt. Kabukiman, NYPD found out the hard way as he fell victim to the most monstrous beer bong of all time, Tony Waste’s “The Inebriator.”

After some group shots and the filming of a brief scene involving MUNICIPAL WASTE’s tour van, the day was done. In the end, as is usually the case wherever MUNICIPAL WASTE goes, a raging good time was had by all. The way that Troma Entertainment and MUNICIPAL WASTE worked together was like a match made in thrash heaven. They’ve accomplished to shoot a video that will surely be as fun to watch as it was to be on set for. The video will be so fun, in fact, that you won’t just watch, you will be compelled to jump out of your seat and MOSH!

Keep your eyes peeled for the music video for MUNICIPAL WASTE’s “Headbanger Face Rip,” coming soon to screens everywhere. To wet your appetite in the meantime, click the following links to view some exclusive photos from the video shoot:

THE NME DECLARE THAT THRASH IS BACK!

The NME declare that Thrash is Back!

British weekly music magazine NME has jumped aboard the Thrash resurgence and openly declared that 'Thrash Is Back' in this week's issue. Reaching out to a more mainstream market, the NME delves into the upcoming artists exploding out of the genre and describes Thrash as 'a style of music that makes you want to pour lager over your head and jump off speaker stacks'.

Focusing on Thrash as 'a place where life can be celebrated and consumed', writer James McMahon presents Merseyside thrashers S.S.S, Dublin's Gama Bomb, North Carolina's Sanctity, new Earache signing Evile and Virginian cross-over thrash masters Municipal Waste as the new breed. Speaking to the NME, Municipal Waste's Ryan Waste describes thrash as 'the most honest form of music' and states 'It's aggressive, there's no frills to it, it's straightforward and it's angry but in a positive way - because you're letting it through. You're circle-pitting, you're stage diving, you're using your energy and getting out aggression'.

To find out for yourself what all the fuss is about, check out the new sounds of Thrash by heading over to:

AKERCOCKE - 'ANTICHRIST' US RELEASE TOMORROW

AKERCOCKE - 'ANTICHRIST' US RELEASE TOMORROW

Get sucked into hell by one of the most anticipated death metal releases of 2007. ‘Antichrist’ is the newest release by the satanic Englishmen, AKERCOCKE and it makes its way to US stores TOMORROW.

Finally, America can find out what all of the controversy is about. ‘Antichrist’ is the album so evil that Northern Ireland opposed the band’s appearance in the region. It’s the album so satanic that the band’s original US pressing plant refused to handle the disc. See for yourself why this epic masterpiece has caused such a stir as AKERCOCKE’s ‘Antichrist’ comes to the US TOMORROW.

You can buy it in stores or on EARACHE.COM.

Antichrist’ Track Listing:
  1. Black Messiah
  2. Summon the Antichrist
  3. Axiom
  4. The Promise
  5. My Apterous Angel
  6. Distant Fires Reflect in the Eyes of Satan
  7. Man Without Faith or Trust
  8. The Dark Inside
  9. Footsteps Resound in an Empty Chapel
   10. Epode

EPHEL DUATH BEGIN WORK ON NEW ALBUM 'THROUGH MY DOG'S EYES'

Italian experimental jazz metallers Ephel Duath have begun work on a new album due to be released in 2008. The album, entitled 'Through My Dog's Eyes' is set to be a concept album in which a dog depicts his vision of various aspects of life, from casual things like nightmares or walks to deeper issues such as accepting death and the rules of nature that are unavoidable. The band are currently gathered together, writing and arranging the songs, and guitarist Davide had this to say about the album:

'The preproduction is very promising, and we'll abuse it to grasp and magnify the potential of each track: we are sure that the album will not only please the fans but that it will also bring us new ones'.

Talking about the concept behind 'Through My Dog's Eyes', Davide has also stated that:

'Lyrics-wise, it is a first person narrative in the shape of various short novels. We are in no way attempting to prove any sort of superiority or draw a parallel between man and animal. All we intend to do is capture the essence of how we think dogs see life, hence the use of the first person, and all of this being speculation means that the texts deal with sheer fantasy. We'll push people to think about this concept as an ode to one of the animals with the most humanity in the eyes'.

'Through My Dog's Eyes' will follow the release of the upcoming remix album entitled 'Pain Remixes The Known' which is set to be released on July 23rd. To hear a track from the album head over to:

BIOMECHANICAL REGRETFULLY PULL OUT OF SIKTH TOUR

BIOMECHANICAL REGRETFULLY PULL OUT OF SIKTH TOUR

UK metallers Biomechanical have unfortunately had to pull out of the upcoming Sikth tour at short notice due to the fire which broke out in the recording studio last week. This unexpected event at The Ecology Rooms studio, as reported last week, has led to the mixing of the forthcoming album 'Cannibalised' to be postponed and rescheduled for the same time as the Sikth tour. This has led Biomechanical with no option but to pull out of the tour.

Biomechanical are extremely sorry to disappoint any fans and would like to apologise to Sikth who picked the band personally as their support.

'Cannibalised' is due to be released early 2008. To find out more about the album head over to www.myspace.com/biomechanicalcannibalised

Municipal waste new video clip shot by Troma Entertainment

Municipal Waste new video clip to be shot by Cult 80's Horror film
company Troma Entertainment.


80's horror fans - get ready to be 'Tromatized' all over again! Legendary
independent film company Troma Entertainment will shoot Municipal
Waste¹s music video for the Thrash party anthem ŒHEADBANGER FACE RIP¹ from
the latest album "The Art of Partying" next week in New York.

Founded by Lloyd Kaufman in 1974 Troma are known the world over for their
genre-defining B-movie style shock flicks, that specialise in graphic
violence, political satire and a bizarre sense of humour. Having produced
classics such as ŒThe Toxic Avenger¹, ŒClass Of Nuke ŒEm High¹ and ŒSgt
Kabukiman, NYPD¹ this will be the perfect marriage of splatter-style visuals
with Municipal Waste¹s colourful high energy Thrash assault.
http://www.troma.com/

The concept is being kept secret but we can tell you that it will involve
some of the favourite Troma characters such as the Toxic Avenger and
Kabukiman. "The Troma Team and I are huge fans of Earache Records and
Municipal Waste, and we're excited to make 'Headbanger Face Rip' into a
Truly Tromatic and Toxi-riffic Music Video Experience!"
- Lloyd Kaufman, President of Troma and Creator of the Toxic Avenger.

Municipal Waste's lyrical miracle himself, Tony Foresta, is equally
excited about the upcoming shoot: ³Troma's awesome! They are a huge
influence on our music, we are working out concepts for an amazing video.
Hopefully it will have boobies in it and blood and shit".

Lloyd kaufman himself sums it up best: "It seems fitting that Municipal
Waste would ask the Troma Team to make
a video for 'Headbanger Face Rip', as we've been ripping faces off on
film for over 30 years!"

ŒThe Art Of Partying¹ is out now on CD (with FREE PATCH) and 10 different
coloured vinyl LPs on Earache Records in UK/europe and due July 31 in USA on
CD (initial copies come with FREE PATCH)

MUNICIPAL WASTE- Drummer, Dave Witte Joins The Vic Firth Family

MUNICIPAL WASTE- Drummer, Dave Witte Joins The Vic Firth Family

Some of the world’s most talented drummers exclusively use Vic Firth sticks as their tools of choice for raging around the kit. Carmine Appice, Terry Bozzio, Thomas Haake, Danny Carey and Thomas Lang are a few of the illustrious names that are on Vic Firth’s stable of artists. You can now add one more name to that list, as MUNICIPAL WASTE’s Dave Witte has joined the Vic Firth family.

You name it and Dave Witte has done it. Earning chops, props and respect is a hard thing to attain as a musician, but Dave Witte has earned everything 100% and has earned it through good old fashioned hard work.  One of the most well-rounded drummers in his field, Witte has earned plenty of praise from critics and fans alike by being the man behind the kit for DISCORDANCE AXIS, BURNT BY THE SUN and MELT BANANA. Currently, Witte helms the skins for Virginia thrashers, MUNICIPAL WASTE where he takes the definition of “Thrash” to new levels with his blinding speeds and humorous presence on ‘Hazardous Mutation’ and ‘The Art of Partying.’

With his reputation like his, Vic Firth was indeed very excited to add a quality name like Witte’s to their roster. Marco Soccoli, Director of Artist Relations Worldwide at Vic Firth said the following about this momentous occasion: “We are proud to have Dave as part of the Vic Firth family, he's a great drummer and a great addition to our family of drummers.”

From now on, you’ll only see Dave Witte drum with Vic Firth’s Rock N series sticks, a fact that Witte is extremely proud of.

“A drum stick endorsement through Vic Firth has finally happened after many years and I couldn’t be happier. I am now sworn to the Vic Firth Rock N and I feel the sticks are the ultimate connection between me and my drums.”

Get an earful of Dave Witte’s drumming on MUNICIPAL WASTE’s ‘Hazardous Mutation’ and ‘The Art of Partying’ (available NOW in the UK, July 31 in the USA) on EARACHE.COM

BIOMECHANICAL - FIRE IN STUDIO TEMPORARILY HALTS ALBUM RECORDING

BIOMECHANICAL - FIRE IN STUDIO TEMPORARILY HALTS ALBUM RECORDING

Jon Collins, bassist of BIOMECHANICAL checks in with a fiery studio update on the recording of their upcoming album, ‘Cannibalised’:

"Chris Webb Blows Up Chris Tsangarides' mixing desk
 
John K and Chris Tsangarides were recording Chris Webb’s solos when a strong smell of electrical fire started to fill the room. Right after that, smoke started coming out of the desk’s power supply and it eventually caught fire!
Chris ran out of the main room and grabbed the fire extinguisher.
Thankfully it was put out straight away. Just a few more minutes and the whole thing would go up in flames!
Just a small glitch…. : /


Biomech recordings will restart as soon as the desk is back on line"


Both the band and the studio tapes are all safe and sound. BIOMECHANICAL will re-enter the studio and continue recording ‘Cannibalised’ in a few weeks.

Cannibalised’ is slated for a September 21 release in the UK and will hit the US later this fall.

BIOMECHANICAL will be embarking on a limited run of UK dates starting tomorrow, July 7 at London’s Islington Academy. For a full list of dates, go to EARACHE.COM.

URKRAFT TRACK TO FEATURE IN DANISH ANIMATED FILM 'EAT SHIT AND DIE'

URKRAFT TRACK TO FEATURE IN DANISH ANIMATED FILM 'EAT SHIT AND DIE'

Danish Death-Metal lords Urkraft are to have a track taken from 2006's 'The Inhuman Aberration' featured in an up-coming novella film produced by Danish Director Anders Morgenthaler. The track 'Too Strong For The Strongest Lord' will be used in the animation, inspired by MTV's Jackass, which portrays dangerous stunts and trickery based around the skateboarding and heavy metal culture of three ten year old boys.

The 22 minute long film is due to have its first screening on the Danish TV-channel TV2 in December of this year, and with Urkraft forming part of the soundtrack it looks set to capture a snapshot of alternative youth culture today.

You can listen to the track 'Too Strong For The Strongest Lord' at www.myspace.com/urkraft

Catch Urkraft live this summer at the Maximum Rock Festival on August 12th.

EVILE VIDEO SNIPPETS FROM STUDIO DURING RECORDING OF ALBUM ONLINE NOW

EVILE VIDEO SNIPPETS FROM STUDIO DURING RECORDING OF ALBUM ONLINE NOW

Up and coming UK thrashers Evile have provided a snapshot into their time in the studio recording their debut release 'Enter The Grave' with producer Flemming Rasmussen. The video can be viewed online at www.myspace.com/evileenterthegrave and gives an exclusive glimpse behind the scenes at Sweet Silence Studios in Denmark, with Rasmussen at the helm, both in and out of the studio.

In a recent interview with UK mag Metal Hammer, vocalist Matt Drake shared his views on the famed Master Of Puppets producer:

'He's a family man. We went to his house for dinner and met his son. He's a bit nuts as well, but he's really nice. And he actually likes what we're doing as well. Because he stepped away from doing metal bands, and only does about one a year, because everyone is probably approaching him saying, make us sound like Metallica.'

DECAPITATED - NEW PHOTOS FROM SUMMER SLAUGHTER TOUR

DECAPITATED - NEW PHOTOS FROM SUMMER SLAUGHTER TOUR

The Summer Slaughter Tour is winding down, but that doesn't mean the level of brutality is winding down with it.

METAL INJECTION has brand new photos taken during DECAPITATED's set at the Majestic Theatre on June 28. These artistic shots of the band on stage bring a certain beauty to the outright crushing violence they have been commanding from its audiences every night on the Summer Slaughter Tour.

Go to http://metalinjection.net/gallery/v/Live-Photos/Summer+Slaughter+2007/Decapitated+_Majestic+Theatre+-+6-28-07_/ to view the photos.

DECAPITATED will be finishing up the Summer Slaughter Tour this Sunday in New York then will head down to Mexico for 3 headlining dates beginning on July 13. For a full list of dates, go to http://www.decapitatedband.net/.

DECAPITATED's latest masterpiece, 'Organic Hallucinosis' is available NOW in stores and on EARACHE.com
