Casket Casey

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Casket Casey is a horror rock band fronted by the vocalist Cia Hedmark, who was a member of the folk metal group Otyg and also did some guest appearances with the band Vintersorg. The band was formed by guitarist Mattias Marklund and bassist Patrik Pettersson in 2001. The group has released a 4 song EP entitled "Coffin' up Bones" through Blood and Guts Records.

Casket Casey is the sombre story of one woman’s loss and torment which leads to a passion most unspeakable. She turns to necrophilia and lives in a delusional world that will one day come crashing in around her. The story of Casey is beautifully told through the voice of Cia Hedmark, who takes much of her influence from the blues genre and tailors it perfectly to create a creepily gothic feeling.
