2022 release. Since 2001, Municipal Waste have uncompromisingly stuck to their guns as hard-partying and even harder-hitting torchbearers of 21st century thrash metal. The Richmond, VA quintet have transformed from a cult favorite into metal mainstays for a generation. Municipal Waste maintain course as vicious and vital as ever on 2022's Electrified Brain. Recorded in Philadelphia with producer Arthur Rizk [Power Trip, Code Orange], they achieved "a thicker and heavier sound" than before. The debut single "Grave Dive" hinges on a downright mean palm-muted riff as a percussive onslaught commences. It builds towards a gang chant call-and-response before a lead rips. In the end, Electrified Brain will give you everything you'd want from a Municipal Waste record or heavy metal record, period. -------------------------------- TRACK LIST 1 Electrified Brain2 Demoralizer3 Last Crawl4 Grave Dive5 The Bite6 High Speed Steel7 Thermonuclear Protection8 Blood Vessel / Boat Jail9 Crank the Heat10 Restless and Wicked11 Ten Cent Beer Night12 Barreled Rage13 Putting on Errors14 Paranormal Janitor
