Customer Reviews

Thrashin' like its '86
Municipal Waste are becoming front-runners in the new wave of thrash metal alongside bands like Fueled by Fire, Merciless Death and Dekapitator. Thrash Metal is a genre not forgotten, maybe out of the limelight, but not forgotten.Bands like Unearth and Trivium incorporate elements of thrash into their music keeping this genre very much alive.
Back to the review of this album. Most the songs clock in just under 3 minutes but offer a surge of heavy drumming, crazy shreds n riffs and rebellious lyrics that would satisfy any kid diagnosed with A.D.D. All the craziness Suicidal Tendencies or Slayer would bring plus excellent production? This is a sure buy for anyone still rocking a denim vest and an Anthrax shirt.peace and beer to you.

Thrrrrrrrasssssshh!
Amazingly wonderful party thrash here! These guys definitely kill it, and make you want to toss back several beers (or your poison of choice). They had this girl jumping and moshing around her apartment upon first spin of this sick album. Yes, they are proud of their love of partying, but don't take this band as a novelty act. Really solid musicianship here; great speed and energy without a hint of falling apart or "going thru the motions." Definite punk influence here.... all around fast, fun, and furious!

Too short
I for one am very thankful for the revival of my favorite type of music thrash. And municipal waste are one of the band's carrying the flag. At first i was tempted to write them off as a gimmick band with a bad name. But im glad i didn't because the art of partying happens to be one of the best cd this year so far and is a glorious reminder of why i like thrash so much in the first place. They have perfected the crossover thrash sound. The riffs rip and are gauranteed to give you a very sore neck. The lyrics are funny in places its nice to see a thrash band with tongue in cheek and serious in others. The vocals fit the music perfectly. My only complaint is the cd is just to short.
