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.

The Funeral
Casey Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
The melatonin fails again, and melancholy settles in
My mouth neglects the shape of words that I know you adored
And every night it hurts a little more
And I can't seem to satiate
The sadness that still resonates
Every bone in me will break
If my happiness isn't permanent, then I am no more than a surrogate father
Lead to the alter to marry the mother despite all of my reservations
If the joy that I feel is so juvenile, how do I reconcile all the aggression that I seem to harbour?
The selfish depression that makes it so hard to feel loved?
Promise me you'll stay a while, I know I ask you all the time
Must be getting hard to pretend
And safe in the warmth of the sun I let myself undress
Revealing wounds that time neglects
Hesitant, I acquiesce to the softest embrace of your bed
Where shamefully I supplicate
For anything that seems to sooth my aches
Watch me as I dissipate
Dissolve into a solvent fear of change
Despondency bleeds into everything
Removing my hands from the wheel of the vehicle
I couldn't care at all
Sing me to sleep with my mellifluous misery
Drunk and delusional, numb at the funeral
Love was once sacrosanct, but now it resembles the sound of a language that I am scared to speak
The lyrics of Casey's song "The Funeral" delve into themes of emotional turmoil, self-doubt, and a struggle with finding happiness and accepting love. The first verse portrays a sense of forgetfulness and sadness that the singer experiences, with their words failing to express their love. This inability to communicate their emotions adds to their pain and creates a cycle of hurt. The chorus reflects the singer's struggle to find solace and satisfaction, as they feel consumed by lingering sadness and guilt that they cannot identify.
The second verse brings up the singer's fear of commitment and their doubts about their own happiness. They question their ability to truly love and be loved, expressing a sense of selfishness and depression that makes it challenging for them to accept affection. The singer is aware of the strain that this uncertainty places on their relationship, constantly asking for reassurance from their partner. They find some solace in the warmth and vulnerability of intimacy, even though it reveals their emotional wounds neglected by time. The verse ends with the singer acknowledging their submission to the comforting embrace of their partner and their simultaneous desire for something to ease their pain.
The closing lines emphasize the overwhelming presence of despondency in every aspect of the singer's life, stating that they have relinquished control and no longer care about the consequences. The association of love with a funeral reflects a loss or deterioration of the sacredness and beauty that love once held for the singer. It also introduces feelings of fear, as speaking the language of love becomes intimidating and intimidating.
Overall, "The Funeral" paints a vivid picture of internal struggle and the search for emotional resolution. It explores the complexities of love, self-doubt, and the corrosive effects of depression.

So upsetting to see Casey go.. I will still continue to listen to them for years to come, probably the best band of this genre <3
@wadewilson7527
Absolutely agree.
I'm not really much of an emotional person but these news made me feel upset and kind of depressed since i've heard about it.
Hope i get to see them on their last europe tour.

I don't feel as sad as I was when this album came out thankfully. but I still remember those feelings of when I would lay awake at night listening to this on repeat until the sound entered my bones. it's a familiar feeling, sitting here now almost 4 years later, but it shows to me how far I've come with myself. for that I am grateful, and I hope the same for everyone else.
