Cancer Bats - Searching For Zero [CD]

"Searching For Zero" is impressive in its polarity - simultaneously the most melodic yet menacing Cancer Bats release, incorporating the crude hardcore punk of their 2006 debut "Birthing The Giant" and more metal leanings of 2008's "Hail Destroyer" while pushing the heavy, hybrid sounds of 2010's "Mayors Bears Scraps And Bones." The ten tracks of "Searching For Zero" were produced by Ross Robinson, known for his work with Sepultura, Slipknot, At The Drive-In, Glassjaw and Blood Brothers to name a few. Inspired by both Robinson and their metal idols Black Sabbath, "Searching For Zero" boasts a more raw and organic tonal signature than any previous Bats release. Robinson brought a bare-bones aural aesthetic to the material, capturing a sound that unites the thrashy, metal-tinged hardcore of the bands previous releases with a meaty, lo-fi intensity found only in their live shows amongst the sweaty masses.
