The Spider Simpson Incident by Casino

Now, this is has the intentions on being a short review of little words because of course, music really should sell itself. Casino are a band from Birmingham formerly known as SpiderSimpson, formerly known as Casino. (long story)
I found these guys on MySpace about 3 years ago and have periodically peeked in when the thought passes my mind to see what news they may have and on so doing that today, I’ve seen some major changes.
Last time I visited the band there was talk of disbandment and I thought it was a great, great pity because not since the Stereophonics had there been a group in Rock to just wet my appetite as much as them. With only a few singles released, I had the opinion of them being the next big thing. Sadly, it was not meant to be. Or so I thought.
With the reincarnation of Casino at the tale end of last year we have them back, ready and gearing and just you wait for it.
After one or two side projects the band have been busy in other areas, but let me tell you this people; I believe that Rock in this country is slowly dying, I believe that this is the band that can save it. This one of the best rock bands I have heard for a longtime.
I’ll not come out with any witty, glorifying my intelligence kind of write-up. But I genuinely believe that their music certainly does, speak for itself. A Heavy Metal Machine is what we need and want.
Four free tracks are available on their ReverbNation page or you can grab The Spider Simpson Incident from iTunes.




















I took that photo of Adam at the top and you don’t have my permission to use it, I’m having this site shut down.
..just kidding! Happy to see it being put to good use.
Glad to see some support outside of the bands own pages too!
Keep it up
Can I then have your details please so I can put a link in to your work?
I sifted through a few and thought that to be the best one.
Couldn’t have said it better. Nice to see someone who knows what they’re talking about.
