Richmond, Virginia-based thrash metal group Municipal Waste have filmed a music video for the title track of their latest album Slime And Punishment. Directed by Norman Cabrera, the clip can be viewed below.
Guitarist Ryan Waste commented: “Teaming up with Norman Cabrera for this video was a match made in horror. His 35 years experience with practical FX in film shined through as you’ll see in this latest Waste clip. Not only a fan of monsters, he’s a metal lifer like us, so we saw eye to eye on the aesthetic of everything involved.
“Initially, Norman approached me to make a mask for Municipal Waste, which has been his specialty for many years. I said why don’t you do us one better and make a damn video?! He leaped on the opportunity and even stepped up as the director, as well as the effects designer, making multiple masks and creating the horrific world of ‘Slime And Punishment’.
“We all grew up on VHS and that played a major inspiring role in the video as well. It was like making a movie, all the work that went into this and there are countless people to thank. I have to give shoutouts to Slasher Dave for composing the intro score and Joel Grind for taking us out with the synth outro, bookending this nightmare perfectly.”
Municipal Waste issued sixth full-length studio album Slime And Punishment on June 23rd, 2017 through Nuclear Blast Records.
Slime And Punishment marks the first Municipal Waste effort to be produced by bassist Phil “Landphil” Hall at Blaze Of Torment Studios in Richmond, Virginia. Mixing and mastering was handled by Bill Metoyer in Hollywood, California.
