Casey’s debut album ‘Love Is Not Enough’ was released via Hassle Records in the latter half of 2016, and it’s now getting a brand new pressing in blood red and Australian Release on Friday 12th May, which has launched with exclusive merch bundles on the band’s MusicGlue store available here.
The first track to be revealed from ‘Love Is Not Enough’ was the visceral ‘Ceremony’, receiving its first public airing on Daniel P Carter’s BBC Radio 1 Rock Show and features Michael McGough of Being As An Ocean on guest vocals.
According to Casey vocalist Tom Weaver, the composition; “vents the frustration that accompanies realizing an extensive period of emotional oppression and manipulation has been suffered under the guise of a sincere relationship. The opening verse describes how an unrequited affection was pursued in the belief that true love prevails. This only led into disappointment and disenfranchisement.”
The album as a whole is emotionally driven and its intense impetus leads to a cathartic listening experience. It’s a empathetic collection of songs, the themes of which many a rock fan will no doubt be able to identify with. Their continuously expanding fan base of loyal and devoted followers are integral to Casey’s story to date and only add weight to their music in the live arena.
Casey’s latest single ‘Little Bird’ received its premiere Australian spin on Triple J’s Short. Fast. Loud, taken from their debut, considers the feeling of helplessness that results from knowing a loved one is in emotional distress, frustratingly heart-wrenching, ‘Little Bird’ exemplifies the band’s emotionally driven, cathartic approach to dynamic songwriting.
The band have also been announced as support to Boston Manor on tour in May, amongst other live dates including Impericon Festival and Download, with more to come.
