It’s been a long and winding road in the 16 years between releases from the Punk brothers in arms, Mike and Brad Casarin, and their life long project, Somehow Hollow.
Through ups, downs, marriages, mortgages, children and the death of founding guitar player Kent Abbott, the brothers knew that no matter the time that had passed, the story had not yet been finished and an ending not yet created for the seminal Southern Ontario group.
Late 2018 the brothers sat down with Engineer and guitar player Dave Featherstone to hash out what was to become the songs that lay before you. Months were spent rekindling the love of songwriting and performing while producing the bands best and fully realized material to date.
Dave in short time became a full fledged member of the group and Mike Harshaw (ex drummer of Metal legends Annihilator) was brought in to realize the full vision of the songs with no compromise.
The boys, after a year of writing, finally entered the legendary Beach Road Studios with Juno Award winning Engineer Siegfried Meier to lay down the tracks and complete the latest chapter of the SH story.
What lies ahead of the listener is a love letter to the genre. A set of songs that the Casarin brothers had always strived to create. A tribute to a fallen friend. A lifelong dedication to music and the passion that has always been present

lyrics
Just two teenage kids alone in the world, you were my lighter side, you made me laugh so hard, you made it crystal clear that we would never part, matters of the heart, you had it all, no one could tame you.
I have this dream of you surrounded by flowers in bloom, angels circling your bed.
Now buried deep inside your tomb is my tribute to you, taking part of me with you.
You were infectious, contagious you were chasing Daylight.
You were a lightning bolt, the highest volt you were chasing Daylight.
Now we’ve seen the world, we travelled so far, but we had our fun, time to settle down, find that solid ground but it fell apart and then things got dark, from the start I couldn’t save you.
It’s sad to picture you alone and cold inside that dark room with all the voices in your head.
Your demons taking flight from your body that night but our burden ensued. Confusing, Confined, Consumed.
You were infectious, contagious you were chasing Daylight.
You were a lightning bolt, the highest volt you were chasing Daylight.
Now we will never know the truth (know the truth) but you know I will always stand for you.
You were infectious, contagious you were chasing Daylight.
You were a lightning bolt, the highest volt you were chasing Daylight.
You were a speeding car that broke apart. You were chasing daylight.
