Noteable
Some fans may be pleased to know that the slow-burning artiness of Cancer Bats' 2010 offering Bears, Mayors, Scraps & Bones is dropped for a slicker, more immediate approach on their fourth LP proper. This time around, there's a conscious decision to bring out more grooves; second single Road Sick seamlessly switches up speed-thrash in the chorus with rhythmical verses, but it never loses its stride. A tricky balance, surely, but they nail it all the same.
