It's been a big week for heavy music with both The Amity Affliction and Code Orange dropping album announcements, and now we have UK metalcore flagbearers Bury Tomorrow with an announcement of their own.
The band's sixth album Cannibal is set to release on April 3rd and will also feature their previous single 'The Grey (VIXI)'. You can listen to the melodic title track below.
Vocalist Dani Winter-Bates had the following to say on the album's title and heavy lyrical content:
“The term ‘cannibal’ refers to being eaten away by your own thoughts but also eaten away by other humans. We’re not kind to ourselves, let alone kind to each other. This album is for me as well as for the fans. It was a cathartic process to address some of the darkest moments I’ve had in my life. For some people, it’ll be a hard listen. But I thought I have to do this. If I’m going to go in, I’m going to go in. I’m not doing something half-arsed. There is nothing lyrically I would change on this entire album.
I wanted to live by my words. I talk to people about normalizing mental health so how can I write an album where I’m not talking about mental health? The normalization of mental health is what saves lives. I want people to see the light in the dark. If they delve into that they can find solace in the discussion, the normalization, the positive action by discussing this.”
