CASISDEAD returns with his new single ‘Boys Will Be Boys’, his biggest musical and visual statement to date and the second track to be revealed from his highly anticipated debut album (due in 2022 via XL Recordings / Remote Control Records). ‘Boys Will Be Boys’ is accompanied by a cinematic music video directed by Hollywood actor, screenwriter and director Ed Skrein (Dead Pool, Game Of Thrones), and starring Emma Rigby (Hollyoaks), singer-songwriter Connie Constance, Jo Hartley (This Is England) and Lewis Reeves (I May Destroy You).
Speaking about the video, director Ed Skrein says:
“This collaboration started many years ago, a link-up formed through a mutual love of independent and world cinema; as well as similar tastes and distastes in modern music. I wrote this film as a response to my unsettling experiences in front of the paparazzi. The glare of the paparazzi is a sharp dagger, the flame of celebrity attracts many moths. I was lucky to go through this later in my life when I was mature enough to see it for what it is. After hearing CASISDEAD’s reflective lyrics on ‘Boys Will Be Boys’, it made me consider my own experiences through the lens of a young, naïve actress.”
