With such a long and storied history, Hassle Records are beyond excited to be working with Cancer Bats again, presenting brand-new 2026 re-presses of Birthing the Giant (2006), Hail Destroyer (2008) and Bears, Mayors, Scraps & Bones (2010) - all limited to 300 copies and releasing May 1st 2026 on special edition colour-in-colour vinyl.
Expanding their palette without losing their bite, Bears, Mayors, Scraps & Bones sees Cancer Bats embracing a broader sonic range. From crushing anthems to unexpected left turns, the band leans into dynamics and texture while keeping their core energy intact. It’s a record that feels both playful and punishing — proof of a band willing to push their sound forward without sacrificing the grit that defines them.
