| Thornhill return with their edgy and riff-laden single “Casanova.” Listen to the song and watch the video here.
The song is the first taste of new music since the band’s acclaimed 2019 debut album The Dark Pool. The release finds the group stepping into an inspired new era, complete with an elevated sound and image. The new music video confirms this and will no doubt have media, industry, and faithful Thornhill fans wondering — where is the band going next?
Vocalist Jacob Charlton shares, “‘Casanova’ is about the extensively taxing experience of falling deeply for someone that you’re too afraid to completely grab onto — the kind of situation where you’re almost scared to love them and begin fixating on the little things you dislike about them or create stories in your head about them in order to keep your distance, so you don’t get hurt or hurt them.”
He continues, “To match the mood of this track instrumentally, I decided to create a sort of 007 scenario, to match the vocal direction I was taking in order to get the point across without making this a sad track. I use the eyes of two agents that are stuck in a dance of death with orders to kill the other while assigned to the same case, they must choose whether or not to follow through with orders they don’t agree with.”
“Casanova” was mixed by George Lever (Sleep Token, Loathe), while its music video was written by Jacob Charlton and edited by Third Eye Visuals amidst lockdown hurdles in Melbourne.
Thornhill are set to play Full Tilt and UNIFY festivals over the coming months, as well as support the likes of In Hearts Wake on their Australian tour and Bury Tomorrow and August Burns Red on their co-headline European/UK run in 2022. |
