visit to a nuclear power plant. Needless to say, the power plant couldn't
handle the sheer energy of the band and the building started to collapse,
causing toxic waste to leak into the local water supply with some rather
unsettling results.
There couldn't be a scarier thought, but luckily for us, this didn't
actually happen. This tale of terror sets the scene for MUNICIPAL WASTE's
gory new music video for the track SADISTIC MAGICIAN, which comes off the
band's 2007 EARACHE RECORDS album, THE ART OF PARTYING.
Filmed at the Hyperion Sewage Treatment Plant in Playa del Ray, California,
the SADISTIC MAGICIAN video was directed by JEFF SPEED of 1134 Films and
produced by CAROLYN VYE of The Vault LA (KILLSWITCH ENGAGE, AS I LAY DYING,
MADINA LAKE) and features MUNICIPAL WASTE doing what they best - thrashing
it up and laying waste to everything around them!
Director JEFF SPEED comments on the video: "Humor, horror, metal and mayhem
have always been a winning combination. It's 80's throwback to the fullest -
back when videos were fun and the music was still dangerous. MUNICIPAL WASTE
is the perfect band for it because this is exactly who they are - no
bullshit."
