Cleveland, OH's Ringworm has announced a string of tourdates that will take them to and back home from SXSW this March. They'll be bringing Cancer Bats and Primitive Weapons along with.

There is no denying the true awesomeness that is Cancer Bats. Just thinking about listening to them gets the blood in the veins pumping. The band recently signed back to Metal Blade for the upcoming release of Dead Set On Living, which will be released on April 24. If you haven't heard DSOL's first single "Old ...

When people ask me to point to an example of a hardcore band that I really, really like (which is like totes every day!), I always point to Cancer Bats. Their post-punk/hardcore influences are salted with a dash of metal, for sure - there's even some Kvelertakian bluesy licks here and there - but those [...]

The official visuals for Cancer Bats ' "Old Blood" have hit the net after being exclusive to the music channels for a little while. Taken from their forthcoming album Dead Set On Living the video shows the band doing their thing in a confined space and will surely get fans excited for some live dates. In fact, the band have just been added to Hit The Deck festival line up which takes place in Nottingham. Any UK folks would be crazy to miss it! Dead Set On Living is set [...]

Cancer Bats have cut the crap and kept it simple for their video to 'Old Blood' , the first single to be taken from their upcoming fourth studio album, Dead Set On Living. Then again, given that the very essence of Cancer Bats is a bunch of guys going seven shades of apeshit in tiny, confined rooms, it more than captures the energy that's made these Canadians such perennial favourites here in the UK. Watch the video to 'Old Blood' by Cancer Bats: [...]

Terrorizer has posted a track-by-track detail of the forthcoming Cancer Bats album Dead Set On Living . Here's a sampling of what frontman Liam Cormier had to say about the first track: 'R.A.T.S' "R.A.T.S is just about being fucking pissed off. It's kinda like my 'Sorceress' part two. In the first version there was two verses and it started off with "I never thought i'd have to write this song again". It has a 'Sorceress' track to get all that anger out and then realising the world over and people [...]

Tweet The Cancer Bats always manage to send a shiver down my spine. The riffs are just wonderful, they are not easily listening but they always touch a nerve. This is there newest offering and I am not disappointed at all. The mix feels a little different on this to their early stuff, the guitars and drums seem clearer to me the result packs a punch. The album arrives in April and UK tour is promised as well. Yes please. [...]

And to add that little extra bit of spice, the five venues they've settled upon just so happen to be in the form of [...]

Cancer Bats offered up a little tease of what was to come from them on their fourth studio album which has been given the name of Dead Set on Living . The first taste of what they have been conjuring up in the studios is titled "Old Blood" and in short, it'll tear your face off. The track seems to be a nice mix of what they have achieved on the previous three albums. Liam also points out in an interview with Blabbermouth that they wanted to try and get across some of their live energy [...]

Yes! Yes! Yes! Cancer Bats esta de regreso y este proximo mes de Abril estaran lanzando su cuarto album de estudio como continuacion de su fantastico "Bears, Mayors, Scraps & Bones" de 2010 el cual estuvo apareciendo dentro de mi humilde lista de lo mejor de ese año.
