1) Casey is a Welsh melodic hardcore band formed in South Wales, United Kingdom in 2014. The band formed shortly after vocalist Tom Weaver and guitarist Liam Torrance left previous projects, Continents and Hot Damn respectively.
Originally formed as a studio band under the name Well Wisher, Weaver and Torrance later recruited Toby Evans, Max Nicolai, and Scott Edwards, and began producing material with the intention of performing live. After a brief hiatus while Weaver auditioned to join the band Northlane, the name Well Wisher was dropped, and the band relaunched under the name Casey. The name is derived from both Weaver's love of the album Casey by The Rise of Science, and also Torrance's tribute to the late Hawthorne Heights guitarist, Casey Calvert.
On December 1st, 2018, the band released a statement explaining that they have decided to disband following a final UK/European tour and a one-off headline show in the US in 2019. Casey's music has been described as "packed to the rafters with emotionally charged guitar lines and captivating, heartfelt lyrics" and "mix of rhythmic atmosphere, spoken word, hardcore guitar and more into the tracks guaranteed to move you and tell you a vivid story.", leading to them being categorized as post-hardcore, melodic hardcore, hardcore punk, emotional hardcore, shoegaze and alternative rock.
In the years following Casey's disbandment, Smith formed the bands Asidhara and Mourn, which was with members of Continents and Wilderness, and released their debut single on August 5, 2021, while Nicolai and Torrance formed Exit Dream alongside vocalist Wesley Thompson, formerly of Napoleon and Climates, and session musician Rob Hawkins.
On December 1, 2022, the band announced that they had reformed and that they had booked five tour date in the United Kingdom and mainland Europe between January 12 and 20, 2023. After every one of the dates sold out, they announced on December 11 that had booked additional dates in London and Oberhausen and upgraded the date in Manchester. In a January 2023 interview with Clash magazine, Weaver explained the reunion came about when Torrence contacted him about reforming only days after his split from his fiancée, which Torrence was unaware of. In the following weeks, the band's final lineup then began to meet one another, and soon writing again. On December 6, 2022, they released the single "Great Grief", the first song written as a band following their reunion, which was followed on January 3, 2023, by the single "Atone".
Forward to September 15, 2023, they released the single "Puncture Wounds To Heaven", and announced it would be a part of their upcoming third studio album.

Making Weight
Casey Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
And I can't blame you for leaving me here
But I wish that you'd told me how it upset my mother
Seeing her son's condition fading daily, it must have been so hard
She's been through hell with me so far
Between depression and colitis, I lost half of my weight
She'd find me bleeding in the bathroom, too exhausted to shake
I was embarrassed to speak up because a "man" should be able to care for himself
In Casey's song "Making Weight," the lyrics depict a personal struggle with illness and the toll it takes on both the individual and their loved ones. The first lines suggest that the person listening has witnessed the singer's life falling apart as a result of their illness. The use of imagery, such as "pulling out my teeth" and "draining the color from my cheeks," paints a vivid picture of the physical and emotional deterioration the illness has caused.
The singer acknowledges that they can't blame the person for leaving, but they express a wish that they had been informed of how their condition had affected their mother. It is revealed that the mother has endured a great deal of hardship alongside the singer, dealing with their depression and colitis. The weight loss mentioned indicates the severity of the illness, and the mother's struggle becomes even more poignant as she finds the singer in distressing situations, like bleeding in the bathroom.

You saw it all fall apart, you saw the person I was before and after the illness started pulling out my teeth, and draining the colour from my cheeks
You witnessed my life crumbling as my illness took a toll on my appearance, robbing me of confidence and vitality.
And I can't blame you for leaving me here
I understand why you chose to walk away from this situation.
But I wish that you'd told me how it upset my mother
I hope you realize the emotional pain my mother endured, watching her son deteriorate.
Seeing her son's condition fading daily, it must have been so hard
Witnessing her child's daily decline in health must have been incredibly difficult for her.
She's been through hell with me so far
My mother has endured countless hardships alongside me throughout this journey.
Between depression and colitis, I lost half of my weight
The combination of depression and colitis led me to lose a significant amount of weight.
She'd find me bleeding in the bathroom, too exhausted to shake
There were times when she discovered me weak, drained, and bleeding in the bathroom.
I was embarrassed to speak up because a 'man' should be able to care for himself
I felt ashamed to voice my struggles since society expects men to be self-sufficient.
I shouldn't need medication to make it through the day
I believed that relying on medication to function day-to-day was a sign of weakness.
