Cancer Bats have unleashed their furious new video for the song “Scared to Death.” The song is off their latest album “Bears, Mayors, Scraps & Bones.” The video reminds me of my family reunions: dark, in a forest, and full of creepy people with potato sacks over their heads.

Don’t be trapped in a cold desolate place without the proper attire. Righteous merch from a righteous band can be purchased Here.
