Continuing the run-up to the August 07th release date of their forthcoming eighth studio album \u201cGive Me Dirt\u201c, Canadian hardcore punk outfit Cancer Bats have given a premiere to their new single \u201cLong Tooth\u201c. This track sports guest vocals from indie-folk artist Brooklyn Doran. The band\u2019s vocalist Liam Cormier said of this new cut:<\/p>\n
\u201cThe chorus reflects a realisation I\u2019ve been having lately. I\u2019m at the halfway point of my life (and yes, I fully intend to make it to at least 92). Like many people, I\u2019ve spent years trying to fix certain parts of myself. Lately, I\u2019ve found myself wondering whether those things really need fixing at all. They\u2019ve carried me this far and have helped shape who I am. At some point, self-improvement gives way to self-acceptance, and the chorus embraces the idea that maybe it\u2019s okay to just carry on.\u201d<\/p>\n
Mitch Barnes assumed the directorial duties for the below video that accompanies this track, with Cormier stating of the track\u2019s visuals, \u201cThis video was a blast to make! From building the sets to making the costumes, we worked really hard to bring this whole vision to life! I couldn\u2019t be happier with how it all turned out.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Continuing the run-up to the August 07th release date of their forthcoming eighth studio album \u201cGive Me Dirt\u201c,…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":262761,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[36],"tags":[98,100,99,101930,101931,9,24,63],"class_list":["post-262760","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-brooklyn","tag-brooklyn","tag-brooklyn-headlines","tag-brooklyn-news","tag-cancer-bats","tag-liam-cormier","tag-new-york","tag-new-york-city","tag-nyc"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/262760","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=262760"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/262760\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/262761"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=262760"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=262760"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=262760"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
