Ex-members of Casey and Napoleon come together and make something beautiful.

Hey everybody, meet Exit Dream.

They are a brand new band featuring Wes Thompson, formally of Napoleon, and Max Nicolai and Liam Torrance, formally of Casey. And they have just released their debut single.

And it is something else.

It's called 'kaleidoscope' and is a perfectly balanced blend of shoegaze etherealism, post-hardcore pummelling and post-rock romanticism that sounds absolutely beautiful.

Carefully constructed and overwhelmingly emotional, it's an incredible start from a band that you are sure to be seeing a lot of throughout 2022 and beyond.
