HEED CASE are a trio based in the Northeast of England. Comprised of former long-time Angelic Upstarts guitarist Newts Newton, Northumbrian psych rock bassist, Si Cadelik & ex post-hardcore band Crane drummer, Shaun 'Nasty' Richardson. The band came about after Newts & Si decided to continue working together, having first met on another project.
Influenced by a range of genres from classic punk, new wave / cold wave, psych rock, minimal techno and a pinch of post punk, HEED CASE aim to move beyond their punk & psych rock roots & explore more experimental sonic landscapes.
The debut album titled ‘All the Rage’ comes out on June 21st. Inspired by the work of Dr Stephanie Sarkis, it explores the themes of gaslighting & narcissism in modern society, amidst the current climate & growing trend in self entitlement, culture wars & identity politics.
Going forward, HEED CASE will continue to explore & write ever more experimental material for future releases, whilst crafting a live show to engage audiences with their tight, angry rhythms and raw vocals
