Symphony Soldier
Symphony Soldier is the second and most recent studio album by American rock band The Cab. It was released on August 23, 2011. The Cab first rose to prominence at the peak of the mid-2000s emo pop trend with their debut album Whisper War (2008), which was promoted it via national tours with Hey Monday and the Hush Sound. The following year, the band lost two members, including guitarist Ian Crawford and bassist Cash Colligan. In addition, the band soon parted ways with their original label, scene stalwart Fueled by Ramen. The album boasts a wide array of songwriting collaborators, including Bruno Mars, Adam Levine and Jesse Carmichael of Maroon 5, Fall Out Boy's Pete Wentz, and production team The Messengers. It was produced by John Feldmann, and recorded at his home studio, Foxy Studios. Musician Brandon Paddock performed guitar and bass on the LP, with Crawford and Devin Bronson contributing additional guitar. Dean Butterworth—best known for his work with Good Charlotte—handled all drum work. Symphony Soldier was entirely funded by the group, and was self-released. Its commercial performance was middling, with the album charting on the Billboard 200 at number 62. It was the Cab's last proper album; though the band signed to Universal Republic the next year and issued an EP, Lock Me Up, in 2014, it was officially dissolved. In 2016, Billboard contributor Joe DeAndrea referred to the album as "arguably one of the most ambitious pop-rock records in recent memory.".
