Cancer Bats Release New Album Details

Canadian hardcore group Cancer Bats have signed with New Damage Records. The band will release their fifth album Searching for Zero through the label on March 10, 2015.

Searching for Zero will contain 10 tracks, which were produced by Ross Robinson (Deftones, Sepultura, At the Drive In) . Those who preorder the album will receive the lead single, Arsenic in the Year of the Snake, which can be heard through the lyric video here. The album is reportedly sonically inspired by Black Sabbath. Vocalist Liam Cormier explained the mindset of the group when recording the new album:

We were coming out of what was a really heavy year for all of us, with a lot of challenges, non-stop touring and the deaths of people really close to the band. With all of these things we’ve had to deal with this past year, we were all at the point of saying ‘No More Bullshit,’ we’ve dealt with everything, nothing is standing in our way. We’ve found our absolute zero, where there can no longer be a negative, and from that point, everything moving forward can only be positive.
