Cancer Bats

Liam Cormier of Cancer Bats has a reputation for being one of the nicest guys in the business, so we knew our chat with him at Slam Dunk Midlands would be something special. At Liam’s request we’ve put a link to the "podcast" at the bottom of this page, it might be a new addition to BTN so keep your eyes open!

Glaswegian metal band Blackwork have released their debut EP Impasse, which consists of five tracks that totals a running time of 24 minutes. The record showcases elements across the metal spectrum, with bucket loads of aggression and some beautifully melodic moments.

We're not entirely sure where the past year has gone, but somehow Slam Dunk Festival has crept right up on us this year! Celebrating their tenth anniversary means one hell of a party and this year they've pulled out the mother of all line-ups. To try and help you choose between your band clashes, we've picked ten acts you 100% have to see over the weekend.

Another killer announcement from the folks at Slam Dunk Festival, bring on May!

Cancer Bats like to keep things busy, not only are they recording their new album and heading out on tour across Europe with Billy Talent, but they’ve just announced a handful of UK headline shows in October/November.

Hardcore superstars Cancer Bats have now been added to ALL the European dates supporting fellow Canadians, Billy Talent. The band were initially only due to support on the UK leg of the tour but have been lucky enough to be invited to do the full European tour! The band are currently doing pre-production for a new album which is sure to blow your ear drums away and leave a smile on your face
