}}Symphony Soldier is the second studio album by American rock band The Cab. It was released on August 23, 2011 as the follow-up to their first album Whisper War in 2008.[11]

The album's first single, "Bad", was released to iTunes on July 11, 2011 and was announced by the band on July 18; a music video was later released. The album received critical praise, with AbsolutePunk giving it a positive review with a rating of 95%, calling the album a "masterpiece".[12] The album art was revealed on July 19.[13]

Ian Crawford, the group's former lead guitarist,[14] played guitar for the album. With most music and lyrics written by band members, guest artists include Pete Wentz and John Feldmann co-writing "Grow Up and Be Kids"[15] and Bruno Mars with "Endlessly".

Release

The album was originally released independently following the group's departure from Fueled by Ramen/Decaydance Records. The Cab funded the entire album, with lead vocalist Alexander DeLeon Tweeting "we paid for it all on our own and refused to take no for an answer."[16]

Pre-orders were available on the band's webstore, the only place the physical album can be purchased. Their webstore offered 11 options, with prices ranging from $10 to $10,000;[17][18] The $10,000 "General of the Army" fan pre-order included bonuses such as:[17]

  • Alex DeLeon and Alex Marshall write a song in their honor, which is then performed and recorded;
  • an iPod Touch with The Cab catalog on it, and some of the group's favorite songs
  • "guest list for life" at all their appearances;
  • an autographed guitar

It debuted on the US Billboard 200 at No. 62.[19]

Promotion

In support of Symphony Soldier the band toured as headliners and supporters, as well as playing at radio station sponsored shows. Among that, they have opened for All Time Low, Simple Plan for their US fall tour in 2011, Avril Lavigne on a Canadian arena concert tour and Maroon 5 during their Asia Pacific tour in 2012.
