1) Cassus are a four-piece screamo band from Norwich, United Kingdom, formed in 2012. They stand as one of the most dynamic and diverse screamo bands in the genre, with a litany of vocal stylings, a blend of melody and chaos, and the ability to craft unique songs that aren’t afraid to defy genre archetypes. This makes for an incredible album listening experience. It’s a rare occurrence to hear a band push the envelope on a genre already mastercrafted by so many incredible acts, but Cassus take the plunge into the unique and experimental, making them a definite talking point for screamo fans. 2) The story of Cassus began in the late summer of 2005 in a small city in the deep south of Sweden, called Hässleholm. Stoffe (guitar-boy) and Hilmer (guitar-boy and lead singer-boy) had invited their friends Freddan (bass guitar-boy) and Klackan (drummer-boy) for a jam at their rehearsal-spot, Rockluckan. It turned out really good and after a numerous of jams they started to find their musical direction, influenced by bands like Black Sabbath, QOTSA and Fu Manchu. Songs were being written and a 3-track demo was recorded. The demo was given a really positive reception and the quartet kept writing songs and began to play more and more shows. They decided to record a second demo and chose four songs for the purpose. Shortly after the finishing of this recording, Stoffe and Klackan decided to leave the band. The future of the band was now uncertain, but in this dark hour a new drummer-boy, El Esteban, turned up and he joined the convoy immediately. With El Esteban on board they were back on track again, this time as a power trio, with enough of new material to record a full length album, which will also happen, some time during this summer… Cassus is: El Hilmerona - Guitar, vocals El Esteban - Drums El Fredolfo - Bassguitar, backup vocals <a href="https://www.last.fm/music/Cassus">Read more on Last.fm</a>.
