Bury Tomorrow‘s sixth studio album “Cannibal” has been announced for an April 03rd release on Music For Nations/Sony Music. The recording sessions for the outing took place with SikTh guitarist Dan Weller behind the boards while Adam “Nolly” Getgood (Periphery) and Ermin Hamidovic took on the mixing duties.
Frontman Dani Winter Bates commented of the record:
“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.”
He added:
“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.”
As for the title choice, he offered:
“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.”
The record will run as follows:
01 – “Choke”
02 – “Cannibal”
03 – “The Grey (VIXI)”
04 – “Imposter”
05 – “Better Below”
06 – “The Agonist”
07 – “Quake”
08 – “Gods & Machines”
09 – “Voice & Truth”
10 – “Cold Sleep”
11 – “Dark Infinite”
