Glasgow trio Casual Drag arrive with serious intent, announcing their signing to Electric Honey Records alongside the release of their blistering new single 'The Talk'.
Leaning into a sharp-edged garage-punk aesthetic, the track is driven by choppy guitar lines, pulsing low-end and a relentless rhythmic push. There’s a sense of control beneath the chaos as a band tighten their grip while still sounding ready to unravel at any moment.
Lyrically, 'The Talk' zeroes in on influence and control, and the kind of figures who charm their way into power before revealing darker motives. It’s a pointed theme delivered with bite and flair.
Recorded in Edinburgh and marking their first outing on a label known for launching acts like Belle and Sebastian and Biffy Clyro, the single signals a band stepping into a bigger frame.
