Big Casino ‘Carry Me In’ EP Review


Big Casino are a three piece alternative rock band from the Wirral, formed in 2012. ‘Carry Me In’ is their debut EP, which has received national radio play on Absolute Radio. The opening track, ‘In My Head’, sounds like a fusion of Foo Fighters and Thrice, but with softer vocals and more technical guitar. It’s an extremely strong opening track, and definitely made me want to listen to more of Big Casino’s work. ‘Hit The Brakes’ is the next song on the EP, and it has a fresh and unique sound due to Jay Roberts’ impressive vocals. ‘Carry Me In’ starts off softer than the other songs, and progresses into an amazing rock song. The guitaring on ‘A Hundred Strong’ is remarkable and it’s a very catchy track, especially the hard-hitting chorus. The final track ‘Safe’ is a bit heavier and a great end to a great EP. I was very impressed with Big Casino, and they definitely deserve to get more well-known. If you’re a fan of alternative rock, or even rock in general, then I’d strongly suggest that you check them out! It’s an EP that I’ll definitely be listening to over and over again.
