Cancer Bats is a prolific Canadian hardcore punk band formed in 2004 by Liam Cormier and Scott Middleton, hailing from Toronto, Ontario, Canada.
Prior to Cancer Bats’ earliest incarnation, singer Liam Cormier and guitarist Scott Middleton had played in the Toronto-based heavy metal band At the Mercy of Inspiration. Looking to craft a heavier, more elemental sound, with inspiration drawn from Refused, Black Flag, and Led Zeppelin, the pair formed Cancer Bats and invited bassist Andrew McCracken and drummer Joel Bath to the lineup. By January 2005 the quartet had produced a self-released demo, after which Mike Peters replaced Baths on drums. Cancer Bats subsequently began honing their live skills by performing across Southern Ontario alongside the likes of Billy Talent, Every Time I Die, Alexisonfire, Gallows, and Rise Against.
In June 2006 the band released their debut record “Birthing the Giant” featuring guest vocals from Alexisonfire’s George Pettit. Earning a host of positive reviews, the album spawned the singles “100 Grand Canyon”, “French Immersion”, and “Pneumonia Hawk”. Following the release bassist McCracken departed to focus on his design company, who was temporarily replaced by Jason Bailey, before Jay R. Schwarzer took over the reigns in late 2007.
Cancer Bats’ sophomore full-length “Hail Destroyer” arrived in April 2008 receiving a plethora of critical acclaim. With features from Rise Against’s Tim McIlrath, Alexisonfire’s Wade McNeil, and Billy Talent’s Ben Kowalewicz, the record was supported by an extensive tour including dates at Download Festival and Reading and Leeds Festivals. Following a further period intense touring Cancer Bats issued their third studio album “Bears, Mayors, Scraps & Bones” in April 2010. The group subsequently performed as “Bat Sabbath”, a Black Sabbath tribute band, at the Sonisphere Festival in July.
The full-length “Dead Set on Living” was released in early 2012 marking a more upbeat direction for the band. Led by the single “Old Blood”, the record draws influence from indie rock bands including Fleet Foxes, and was supported by playing five shows in the shape of a pentagram across the UK.
Plus d'info2004, the year that one of Canada’s finest exports was born (and no I’m not talking about Bieber!), Cancer Bats. Fronted by vocalist Liam Cromier, this metalcore four piece have often been compared to early Converge, Hatebreed and Refused. As part of the campaign for the 4th album, Dead Set On Living – the band announced a string of shows, but this was no ordinary tour. They would play 6 shows in 5 different venues around London (travelling in path of a pentagram) in 1 day. Utter madness, but a stroke of genius at that. It saw the band using public transport to get to the venues whilst their backline were transported by vehicle. Despite the theoretical logistical chaos, Cancer Bats went above and beyond maintaining the energy levels throughout, giving the fans an admirable display of carnage and showing no signs of tiredness. With their individualistic style on their cover of Beastie Boys classic “Sabotage”, Cancer Bats make it their own whilst still remaining true to the original. Tracks such as “Hail Destroyer”, “Lucifer’s Rocking Chair” and “PMA til I’m DOA” create a storm with Cormier jumping around the stage and head-banging and enthusing the crowd to take part in mosh pits appearing left, right and centre. Playing festivals such as Taste of Chaos, Hellfest and Download, Cancer Bats put 100% into each and every show creating a spectacular energy fuelled performance. If you came to party, Cancer Bats will show you one hell of a time.
Ontario's hardcore punk outfit Cancer Bats have reached out from their humble Toronto home and achieved global domination on the punk and rock scene. They are always at home in the UK when visiting our shores and often put in memorable performances at the likes of Download, Reading & Leeds and Slam Dunk. It is when the quartet is faced with thousands of revellers and a larger platform as possible that they really thrive. They have a true skill in being able to transfer the aggressive intimacy of a basement club to a huge field facing a main stage.
They make sure the whole audience is involved during the sing/chant-along choruses, they jump on command and of course they mosh constantly. Whirring circles of bodies, dust and dirt emerge during 'R.A.T.S.' much to the twisted delight of Liam Cormier. The rest of the band does not seem to be as focused on the crowd as they lurch around stage thrashing out their blistering instrumentals at incredible speed. The whole crowd is battered, bruised and elated as 'True Zero' comes to a close and they have their arms raised in salute to the Canadians.
They always deliver a great show from the off. Loud, hard and fun; a good mix of new stuff and fan favourites. Liam hanging out at the merch stand afterwards chatting and having selfies was the icing on the cake, what a lovely approachable fella he is.
Cancer Bats always put on a great show, great guys to hang around after as well, no ego, no bullshit, just real guys in a really awesome band. Really small venues bring out the best in a show as well.
Great show as always.
The pawn shop was a better venue for them, but starlite was great. They even had the sode door open for quick exit and entrance
The cover song of sabotage they played was great
