Municipal Waste/Iron Reagan singer Tony Foresta has his own hot sauce now

by | Mar 5, 2015 | POLITICS

There’s just something about Richmond metal that lends itself to condiments. Two years after GWAR brought out their very own GWAR-B-Q Sauce, Tony Foresta of local thrashers Municipal Waste and Iron Reagan has joined up with Tears Of Joy Sauces to bring the world his very own hot sauce!


There’s just something about Richmond metal that lends itself to condiments. Two years after GWAR brought out their very own GWAR-B-Q Sauce, Tony Foresta of local thrashers Municipal Waste and Iron Reagan has joined up with Tears Of Joy Sauces to bring the world his very own hot sauce!

Known as Liquid Arson, this new hot sauce just showed up on the market this week. We don’t have an official Skogal Unit measurement for Liquid Arson yet, but Tears Of Joy rates it a “9 out of 10” on their own heat scale, and Foresta himself says it is “guaranteed to mosh your taste buds!” RVA Mag’s own hot sauce expert, John Reinhold, is definitely interested in scoring himself a bottle; if and when he does, we’ll bring you a full update. For now, grab yourself a bottle of Liquid Arson over at the Tears Of Joy website, and tell ’em RVA Mag sent you!

While you wait eagerly by the mailbox, watch Tony and the rest of Iron Reagan disrupt all sorts of public events, including an afternoon of grocery shopping, in their video for “Miserable Failure,” from the most recent Iron Reagan album, The Tyranny Of Will, below.
