British alternative rock mainstays Basement return with the release of WIRED, their first new album in over eight years via their original label, Run For Cover Records. They also share the album’s focus track Time Waster, the LP’s opening song, and a fitting entry point into the WIRED’s mix of urgency, melody, and raw intensity.
Boldly defying genre limitations, the record marks a new chapter for the band and is their most authentic and fully realized work to date. Working with producer John Congleton (Death Cab for Cutie, Wallows, Angel Olsen, Sharon Van Etten), WIRED is the sound of five friends who have weathered every high and low without a single lineup change, creating the uncompromising music that first moved them.
Leading to WIRED’s release, Basement shared the album’s title track, plus Broken By Design, The Way I Feel, and most recently, Head Alight.
