Cancer Bats sound as angry as ever in "Scared To Death," a new track posted to their MySpace page on Tuesday (Feb. 9).
The track begins on a foreboding note, with frontman Liam Cormier talking over a rumbling bassline from Jaye Schwarzer and wah wah-processed guitar from Scott Middleton. The chorus is positively explosive, with Cormier screeching, "I wanna kill everything I seeeeeeee!" before ending the tune with a blistering proclamation of "You kill for me, I die for you!"
"Scared To Death" will appear on Cancer Bats' upcoming third album, Bears, Mayors, Scraps & Bones, due out April 13. There's no track listing yet for the follow-up to 2008's Polaris Music Prize long listed Hail Destroyer, but the St. Catharines, Ont. hardcore band have announced they'll release a digital EP containing "Scared To Death" and their cover of the Beastie Boys' "Sabotage" through iTunes on March 1.
