One of the advantages for MUNICIPAL WASTE being on this tour is the chance to really set themselves apart from the other bands on the lineup and turn heads as the lone thrash band on the bill.
“I think we definitely stand out on the bill, but that’s a good thing;” says MUNICIPAL WASTE guitarist, Ryan Waste. “This is a chance for us to spread our style of hardcore thrash to a crowd that’s probably never heard it – get ready for a full speed assault on the ears!”

MUNICIPAL WASTE and GOD FORBID will be alternating the show’s opening slot each night. Dates where MUNICIPAL WASTE go on 2nd after GOD FORBID are noted with an asterisk (*).

With a lineup that includes members of Alabama Thunderpussy, Baroness, Beaten Back to Pure and Municipal Waste, BIRDS OF PREY is a vital part of the Southern metal explosion. Sophomore release Sulfur And Semen transcends geographical boundaries by also transcending musical boundaries – it’s too fast for sludge, too grimy for death, too precise for punk and way heavier than the current crop of retro-rock revivalists. One thing’s for certain: BIRDS OF PREY is one super group that lives up to the billing.

Sulfur and Semen preys upon store shelves today, Tuesday January 22nd (January 26th internationally). Hunt it down at your favorite record store or order now at Relapse.com.

DISFEAR – ‘Live The Storm’

D-beat defenders DISFEAR strike back with its long-awaited new full-length Live The Storm. The legendary Swedes, led by Tomas Lindberg’s infamous vocal howl, power through 10 burners with new-found ferocity and intensity captured by engineer Kurt Ballou (CONVERGE, COLISEUM, DOOMRIDERS, ANIMOSITY). As “Get It Off“, “The Furnace“, “Deadweight” and their ilk prove, DISFEAR are the undisputed kings of crust-core.

Live The Storm hits stores today (Tuesday January 22 or January 25 internationally) like a hurricane. Don’t delay picking up your copy, order now here!
