coming out on August 25th. Entitled MASSIVE AGGRESSIVE, this album
brings the promise of the band's most ferocious and most focused album
of their career. With such ferocity flowing through the whole of the
album, the band knew they needed the right visuals to compliment the
vibe of the music. According to MUNICIPAL WASTE vocalist, Tony
Foresta, the only man who could get that imagery just right was Andrei
Bouzikov, the artist responsible for the cover to 2007's THE ART OF
PARTYING.
"We wanted to work with Andrei Bouzikov again because he is like a
brother to us;" says the MUNICIPAL WASTE vocalist. "He is one of the
few people that can tolerate me and Ryan's insane pickiness and
attention to detail. Not only that but he is multi talented and can do
many different styles of art and understands exactly where we are
coming from."
The attitude on MASSIVE AGGRESSIVE is quite different than any other
MUNICIPAL WASTE record and the band needed the artwork to make it
apparent from the very first glance. "We knew we wanted to stray away
from the traditional painted covers that so many new "Thrash" bands
seem to be doing since HAZARDOUS MUTATION came out;" says Tony. "We
wanted the artwork to go a different direction the same way that our
music has. I think we have achieved it." Overall, Tony and the rest of
the band feel it's a perfect representation of where the band is today
and show much gratitude for how it turned out. "I'm really happy with
it. It's my favorite one yet. Thanks Andre!"
