Cassyette haa gone more pop than ever before with her new single 'Mayhem', a lament that attempts to deal with her recent break-up. It comes as she heads out on tour this week.

"We're locked in a come-down," she sings on her most un-metal single to date. Instead, this single is all about exorcising the demons of heartbreak through simple melodies and alternately mournful and thrashing guitars.

Speaking on the break-up behind the song, Cassyette said:

“Over the last year I’ve learnt that nothing good lasts forever and sometimes you have to let things go. I loved him, and he loved me, but after going through so much, it changed things between us and we had too many problems beyond repair. I had that feeling in the pit of my stomach that our time was up, and we both wanted to let go. We had reached the bottom line and my whole world turned upside down.


I don’t think you ever fully get over heartbreak. We broke each other’s hearts. It feels like Mayhem.”
