Influenced by those 90s grunge-filled greats in Third Eye Blind and Green Day, Jake Cassman aka Drunken Logic has blended a multitude of genres together finely tuned by his songwriting prowess into crafting his new 5-track EP ‘An Awful Lot Of Nothing’. Cassman has shared the lead single ‘Born Mad’ available now.
Cassman comments:
“Born Mad” is my attempt to understand the mindset of someone who may go on to commit a mass
shooting — a uniquely American phenomenon that is at once profoundly shocking and no longer the least bit surprising. The narrator is a profoundly alienated and angry young man, someone who feels trapped by society’s expectation of him and his own definition of masculinity. This song is a headbanger, and I’m proud of it, but it should make you feel uncomfortable the deeper you listen to it — it still makes me uncomfortable, and I wrote the damn thing.”
Catchy punky guitars over a superb drum soundtrack back Cassman’s steady yet attitude filled vocals. It’s a nod to the past with a future facing sound and intelligent lyrics, wrapped up in a raw and simple package.
