Comments vocalist Shawn Knight, “It’s been a decade since this bad boy came out, and I think it’s safe to say we’re even more fucked up now after all of these years. Lots of good memories from around this time, like our first tours with King Parrot and Acid Witch. The music video with King Buzzo… I still don’t know how we pulled that one off. I managed to put my ego in check just long enough to hire surrealist Brad Moore to paint the new cover and I couldn’t be happier with what he did for us. And it’s our first time pressing a record with Waxwork; both vinyl variants they came up with are amazing.”
Strange Waste fuses all walks of extreme from metal, noise, and hardcore without falling squarely into any of one those genres. A wholly bastardized hybrid of the Melvins, Dead Kennedys, Big Black, and System Of A Down, Child Bite’s self-proclaimed “music for losers” is ugly, anxious, and dangerously habit-forming. Originally issue by Housecore Records as a double 7” in 2014, Strange Waste was captured at Russian Recording in Indianapolis, Indiana and produced by Child Bite. The 2024 edition features new cover art: an original painting commissioned by Brad Moore (Tomb Mold, Gatecreeper).
