Australian thrash metal freaks assemble! Richmond, Virginia's hard-partying, fast-playing icons Municipal Waste have dropped all the details of their very long overdue tour Down Under. Hitting up all major cities across six shows - yes, including Perth - the 'Wasted' tour sees the five-piece's first return to Aus since their debut run of shows here in 2013.Leaders of the thrash metal revival of the early 2000s, Municipal Waste are now rightly considered legends themselves, with their high-octane, no-frills/no-BS attack great on record; but it's their legendary live show where the band comes into their element. At any typical Waste show you can expect stage dives, mic-grabs, non-stop pits, beerbongs, costumes, and more people surfing than a Saturday morning at Burleigh Heads. But don't take our word for it, frontman TonyForesta comments on the upcoming dates;
“We hope you walk away with some bloody ears, blown speakers, pi*sed off parents, black eyes, and a healthy distrust of authority”
Australian fans of Municipal Waste can expect a vein-pumping, career-overview style set across these gigs - as well as tracks from their latest release Electrified Brain - so it's time to start working on your cardio and grab tickets to the thrash metal tour of 2024.Words by Andrew Kapper
