What’s new in metal this week!
1 MUNICIPAL WASTE 3 Song Sampler [Earache] – This is the bands fourth studio album and it is full of short ‘thrashy’ songs. The longest track is just barely over 3 minutes.
2 ECLIPTICA Impetus [Frontiers] – “If you like your metal to have imagination, passion, be melodically progressive and have some killer choruses, Impetus is for you. Hopefully the album’s title will help give them exactly what it says.” – Jeff Perkins
3 MERAUDER God Is I [Regain] – Hailing from New York these guys broke through the scene the old fashioned way by releasing multiple demos. After leaving Century Media this is the bands first release on Regain Records.
4 GWAR Lust In Space [Metal Blade] – Gwar is an American Grammy-nominated metal band formed in 1985. The band is best known for their elaborate sci-fi/horror film inspired costumes; raunchy, obscene lyrics; and graphic stage performances, which consist of humorous re-enactments of political and moral taboo themes.
5 HOWL Howl [Self-Released] – They have a female guitar player. Pretty cool.
