One thing actually shitty occurred to Most cancers Bats whereas on tour earlier this week. What I’m assuming to be a gaggle of assholes stole the band’s van and trailer full of drugs and tools. Such a fuckin dick transfer.
Due to mentioned dick transfer, the band launched a GoFundMe to assist them take care of the entire nonsense. Guess what? They made all of their $30,000 aim, LESS THAN 24 HOURS after the marketing campaign went dwell. Most cancers Bats followers go exhausting. I want that form of devotion in my life.
To say an enormous thanks to their followers and donors, they’ve shared a beforehand unreleased monitor from 2022’s Psychic Jailbreak known as “Backstab the Rat Race.” You may take heed to that under.
Most cancers Bats have been fairly vocal about the entire expertise thus far, and right here’s their newest assertion on reaching the aim and sharing the brand new music:
“Waking up in a lodge in Indianapolis to find our van and trailer had been stolen was probably the most disheartening feeling on this planet. Fortunately, the police recovered the van, and it wasn’t in horrible form, so we had a option to keep cell and start determining learn how to proceed the tour. As quickly as we posted on social media, the messages began pouring in, with phrases of help, love, and encouragement.
“One in every of our buddies, Shawn Dealy, who works at Sweetwater, reached out instantly and supplied assist with backline gear. That was an enormous assist. We had simply invested quite a bit to get this tour off the bottom, so we launched a GoFundMe to assist cowl the stolen gear, van repairs, and a brand new trailer. We wanted all the things. Our group got here via HUGE!! We raised $33,000 in lower than 24 hrs, sufficient to get us again in motion.
“The love and help we’ve obtained has been unimaginable. It’s actually made us understand that what we’re doing actually means one thing to lots of people.

“We’ll be endlessly grateful to everybody who reached out, despatched a message, or donated. As a thanks, we needed to offer one thing again. We figured the perfect factor that we may do was to launch a music we’ve been sitting on for some time.

We are able to’t get in every single place to say thanks to everybody individually, however we will put out a ripping music.”
