Toronto, ON's Hardcore/Metal quartet Cancer Bats have announced a Canadian tour with Touche Amore and A Sight For Sewn Eyes. This tour is particularly awesome to me. A Sight For Sewn Eyes hails from Halifax, Nova Scotia. They're part of the East Coast (Canada) music scene that I've grown up around my entire life. They recently (as in two or three days ago) signed to the Canadian based label, Distort Entertainment. Anyone in the East Coast scene knows this is a huge deal. It's an extremely rare thing to have a band from such a small area get signed. They will always have all of our support. They are fantastic musically and everyone should check out their latest release '(nonsense)', a self-released, four-track, EP.If you don't know who Touche Amore are yet, then you should give your head a shake. They play a fast-paced, hard-hitting, style of melodic hardcore and right now are going nowhere but up. Their most recent release is their sophomore album 'Parting the Sea Between Brightness and Me'. Check it out. They are a must heard band by any hardcore music enthusiast.
