Casey Calvert Passed Away 5 Years Ago Today
|
Holy shit.
|
That was a quick 5 years. Seems like it wasn't too long ago.
|
Can't believe its been that long already.
|
I never remember that it happened so close to Thanksgiving which makes it so much more tragic.
I am very glad that they've continued to write music. |
Crazy. He was one of the nicest people I've ever had the chance of meeting.
|
Seemed like one of the coolest guys. He was the first screamer I liked which has become a gateway into music I wouldn't have listened to before. RIP
|
this made me wana listen to in silence in black and white...dude really got me into music with screamers
|
I'll never forget finding out about this. I thought it was a joke. RIP.
|
certainly missed...worked with them a few times and Casey was always a pleasure to be around and photograph.
 |
RIP
|
The fact that people still care 5 years later just goes to show how much people loved him. RIP.
|
He was an awesome person.
|
i was just thinking about what my life was like 5 years ago earlier. didn't realize this happened 5 years ago, though. RIP.
|
He seemed like such a genuine a nice guy. It's cliche, but this band were one of the bands that got me into music with screaming, and their music genuinely helped me get through some tough times in my teenage years. He is still missed, RIP.
|
Wow, hard to believe it's been that long.
|
RIP Casey. Remember when I heard the news. So sad.
Edit: Also the day Freddie Mercury died. RIP to him as well. |
I still have that TWLOHA shirt that came out to help pay for the funeral
|
hate was a pretty good ep... I'll just say that much...
|
:/ damn shame. RIP Casey
|
RIP.
Still crazy. |
Never had the chance to meet Casey, but everyone I know that has, has told me what a stand-up guy he was. As with many of you, Casey and Hawthorne Heights were my gateway to bands with screaming. R.I.P.
|
Rest in peace :(
|
still remember when i read about it on here when i was in a computer class in school. rip
|
I still feel fortunate to have caught that Nintendo Fusion tour to see them headline.
|
Won't lie. Forgot he was dead. Still super sad. RIP
|
RIP Casey.
|
remember the news of his passing like it was just yesterday
they just started their tour with Escape The Fate & i was thinking about going crazy. rip Casey :-( |
First unclean vocalist I enjoyed, which lead me to so much more music. Real sad. Can't believe it's been five years already.
|
a lot of the girls in my clique were in tears about this when the news broke, I didn't give Hawthorne Heights the time of day until last year. I wish I had gotten into them sooner. Rest In Peace, Casey.
|
Feel bad to say that I only started listening to them once I heard about his death. They're now one of my favorite bands, and I realize now in retrospect that few works in this scene not only during that time, but today also, could even come close to the dynamic he had built with that group.
Missed. |
Wow that seems like yesterday. Still remember hearing the news. I'm really glad I got to me him.
|
RIP
|
I still remember being at a Chiodos concert the day after it happened, but that was how i found out. Pretty sure Craig or one of the other bands that played that night announced it on stage. I was totally bummed out cause I'd recently gotten super into HH and now there was no way I'd get to see them in their prime. The albums with Casey are still some of my favorites and really turned me on to listening to bands with screaming. RIP Casey.
|
Wow, it's been that long?! I still exactly remember reading about his death here.
|
Just picked up Silence in Black and White on vinyl. I'll make sure to give it a spin. RIP
|
It feels like it's been so much longer than that. If I remember correctly, he was married for not too long before he died which just made it that much more sad. RIP, Casey.
|
RIP. i saw hawthorne heights multiple times when they still had Casey. arguably one of the best screamers of all time
|
Wow, times flies. What am I doing with my life?
|
So horrible. RIP.

RIP Casey, Freddie, ...

wonder when jadedpunkhulk is gonna bring the rage
|
RIP. hopefully, if anything, this shows his fans battling with depression or anything else that even if you are not trying to harm yourself, you must be careful with the medication prescribed. Celexa and klonopin or variations of each are routinely proscribed together, im not sure if they ever said the opiate he was taking but it just shows what can happen when just a few things are mixed together accidentally (although im pretty sure they said death resulting from this was pretty rare)
also, props to the band for being so cool and handling this situation the absolute best way possible. i remember when people on here loved to shit on HH just because it was the "cool" thing to do, but over the years they definitely gained the respect from most people by the way the handled not just this situation, but everything. |
Glad they're still continuing on. Saw HH earlier this year and they're still so great live.

So weird, I was just thinking about this for the first time in a long while today. Spinning The Silence in Black and White in his memory.

I can't believe it's been 5 years since Casey passed away. He wasn't friendly to me every time I met him, but it's still sucks when someone from a band you like dies. They have handled themselves quite nicely with such a terrible situation. They have gone on to put out the best material of their career.
|
He passed away right at the start of their headlining tour with Escape the Fate, the AKAs, etc.
