Richmond, Virginia's MUNICIPAL WASTE will release its sixth album, "Slime And Punishment", on June 23 via Nuclear Blast Records.

Ryan Waste states: "We've been getting punished for the last five years by people asking for a new album. Now we're here to return the favor with an aural onslaught of speed metal punk. Enjoy a taste of slime courtesy of the WASTE."

"We're sorry this took so long," comments vocalist Tony Foresta. "That was our bad. It feels good to be back musically kicking you in the balls... and or titties."


"Slime And Punishment" is the first WASTE album to be engineered by bassist Phil "Landphil" Hall at Blaze of Torment Studios in Richmond, Virginia. Mixing and mastering was completed by Bill Metoyer (SLAYER, W.A.S.P., LIZZY BORDEN and DARK ANGEL) in Hollywood, California.

The cover artwork for the sixth album was created by the bands good friend, Andrei Bouzikov. This is the fourth cover he has created for them as he was responsible for the art for "Massive Aggressive", "The Art Of Partying" and the split with TOXIC HOLOCAUST, "Toxic Waste".
