Long-running metal/hardcore band 36 CRAZYFISTS plan to release their fifth full-length, Collisions and Castaways on July 27th, via Ferret Records in the US (Roadrunner for the rest of the world). The release is the follow-up to 2008′s The Tide And The Takers. Like Takers, guitarist Steve Holt produced the new record, and it was mixed by Andy Sneap. The brand new song “Reviver” is streaming on the band’s MySpace page. 36 CRAZYFISTS will be on tour in the US with FEAR FACTORY and AFTER THE BURIAL for most of July.

- These guys just keep soldiering on… it’s pretty amazing give all of the label shenanigans that have been handed to them. I’m into all of their prior full-lengths, but A Snow Capped Romance really stands out as one of the most distinctive metal/hardcore discs out there, even with the heavy GLASSJAW vibe of its time.
