Today they&#8217;ve shared a third track from the record &#8211; <i>&#8216;Bite Through My Tongue&#8217;<\/i>.<\/p>\n<p>The single rides on dense instrumentation with a radiant chorus, highlighting\u00a0<strong>Casey<\/strong>&#8216;s melodic abilities whilst maintaining their emotional\/post-hardcore centre.<\/p>\n<p>As vocalist Tom Weaver explains,<em> &#8216;Bite Through My Tongue&#8217;<\/em> is one of several songs on\u00a0<em>&#8216;How To Disappear<\/em>&#8216; influenced by a recent split.\u00a0<em>&#8220;There are a handful of songs on How To Disappear that stem from the breakdown of my most recent relationship. This is the first on the record to touch on that, and it deals broadly with the extreme apathy and self-destructiveness that arises during a depressive episode; and how that impacts those closest to you,&#8221;<\/em> Weaver stated.<\/p>\n<p><em>&#8220;Often, when experiencing an episode of depression, my first reaction is generally to dissociate and distance myself from the world. That\u2019s far easier to do when living alone; but when cohabiting (and particularly while isolating during the pandemic), it meant my partner would be subject to this level of apathy that felt impermeable to physical nor emotional pain. A type of numbness that would completely detach me from the reality of my life.<\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>&#8220;This song is definitely an embellishment of those experiences; and doesn\u2019t discuss the situation from a single perspective. It floats between the apathetic and the empath.&#8221;<\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>\u201dHow to Disappear\u2019<\/em>\u00a0will be released on January 12th 2024 through\u00a0<strong>Hassle Records\u00a0<\/strong>and<strong>\u00a0Greyscale Records<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p><iframe title=\"Casey - Bite Through My Tongue (Official Video)\" width=\"800\" height=\"450\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/0lGhikY-U9c?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/p>\n<h2>When is Casey touring the UK?<\/h2>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/alreadyheard.com\/staging\/casey-uk-tour\/\">As previously announced<\/a>,\u00a0<strong>Casey<\/strong>\u00a0will be playing a short run of UK shows in the Spring of 2024.
