Basement release new music video for ‘Head Alight’

BASEMENT have released a new music video!

The British alternative rock mainstays have unveiled Head Alight, the final single to be taken from their upcoming new album WIRED, which is set for release on May 8th via Run For Cover Records.

Speaking about the new single, vocalist Andrew Fisher comments, “what started out as a love song quickly evolved into something a lot more ethereal. Alex was picking up on what I was saying in a far broader and otherworldly way. He saw it less in a romantic way – a more universal look at the idea of someone’s soul or essence being so powerful and beautiful you can’t look away. This really excited me because it allowed me to get out of my head and focus on something way more abstract and therefore, hopefully more expansive.

I hadn’t really approached songwriting like this before and I found it really fulfilling. We were really stuck with this sound – focusing on the guitar leading it, in a very indie rock early 2000s thing. It just never felt right. The more we added, the less I liked it. John stripped everything back and it became so much more powerful.”
