Distort has released further details on the upcoming full length from Toronto-based hardcore / metal act Cancer Bats. The band's new record Bears, Mayors, Scraps And Bones will be available in Canada on April 13th. A video for the first single is set to be released at the end of this month. A two song EP titled Sabotage will arrive on March 2nd as well, featuring the songs "Sabotage" and "Dead Wrong."

Vocalist Liam Cormier told Rock Sound late last year that the record was going to sound like
"Glenn Danzig going on a camping trip with Black Flag's Greg Ginn, a reanimated Vincent Price and the Beastie Boys." With a single titled "Sabotage" (could it be a cover?) and the label's possible Check Your Head nod in their news posting ("we can't tell you just yet, whatcha' want from us?") the clues are pointing to some serious Beastie Boys love on this album. (UPDATE: Chart confirms that it's a cover)

Cancer Bats last released Hail Destroyer in 2008. They'll tour North America in March with Against Me!, Alexisonfire and Billy Talent.
