recording their new, yet to be titled album this March at Red Planet
Studios in their hometown of Richmond, VA. The album will be produced
by Zeuss, who had produced the band's last album, THE ART OF PARTYING.
The writing process for the new record is almost complete and the band
is excited about bringing new ideas to the table. Frontman Tony
Foresta comments: "So far the song writing is coming off a lot more
aggressive than our previous efforts." Drummer Dave Witte agrees:
"This set of new songs are challenging and super fun to play, we
turned up the aggressive and speed knobs while keeping the good time
intact."
THE ART OF PARTYING was released in 2007 to great reviews and hailed
the dawn of of the most intense shows that MUNICIPAL WASTE shows have
played throughout World. Looking ahead, Tony Foresta is enthused about
the direction that the band's writing has taken them on the new album:
"I think it is a definite change from our last 2 albums. Nothing super
drastic, but a positive change. The WASTE is still all about having a
good time. But I think we all agreed on writing something a bit more
pissed off and different with this album, Instead of going ahead and
writing the same album all over again. But don't fear were not getting
"artistic" or any bullshit like that. We've just been listening to a
lot more Poison Idea and NWOBHM and I feel it might show a bit with
this next album."
The band have announced 3 song titles which promises to entirely new
levels of intensity and insanity in a style that is pure WASTE :
Massive Aggressive
Shredded Offering
The Divine Blasphemer
The new MUNICIPAL WASTE album is expected to be released worldwide on
EARACHE RECORDS in late August 2009.
