**with Stare Away**
A reflection of the industrial grime and perpetual sunny glow of Los Angeles, Casket Cassette (Constant Williams) blends euphoria and melancholy in an expression of existential perseverance. Casket Cassette’s depressingly danceable music takes a contemporary spin on the dark sounds of the 1980s Post-Punk movement, drawing further influence from Darkwave, New Wave, EBM, Synthpop and Indie/Alternative to achieve this duality.
The project takes its name from a memory Williams has from childhood of his father recording a live song onto a cassette tape, then placing the tape into his grandfather’s casket as it was being lowered into the ground. Williams’ lyrics often reflect upon similarly somber themes such as mental health struggles, loss, heartbreak, addiction and recovery—while also offering glimmers of hope, humor and a general determination to overcome.

Stare AwayEmerging from the heart of New York City’s underground music scene, Stare Away is the brainchild of Ben Nelson, a project that fuses post-punk intensity with a retro-coded aesthetic inspired by the dark alternative icons of the 1980s. Haunting melodies and brooding soundscapes channel the spirit of goth-driven acts from that era, offering a sonic journey steeped in existential reflection and melancholic beauty. A true embodiment of modern dark romanticism, Stare Away continues to captivate audiences seeking meaning in the shadows.
