Today, Canadian hardcore punk heavyweights Cancer Bats have dropped a second track and video, “Lonely Bong”, from their anticipated forthcoming seventh studio album Psychic Jailbreak. The new LP will be released on April 15, 2022 through their own label Bat Skull Records in partnership with New Damage Records in Canada. One of the first tracks to be written for the new record, “Lonely Bong” fuses together punishing hard-hitting drums and southern-rock tinged riffs with frontman Liam Cormier’s signature vocal intensity.
On “Lonely Bong” drummer Mike Peters shares:
“Lonely Bong is a song about life on the road and being in a band. It was a big lifestyle change for us when the pandemic happened and we couldn’t tour. We missed it a lot. Playing music, seeing friends and fans from around the world. We didn’t even see each other for over a year. LB is a homage to the road life and the blessing it’s been in our lives.”
