About the Artist
Lyrics
i looked up at your window and pretended i could see you. you don't live there anymore. my mind wanders and i get lost in thoughts of you. i sleep to escape, because drinking kills you anyway. so why when i wake does my heart still ache? your cup is still on the window sill. i'll bring myself to move it soon, but until i do, i'll get lost in thoughts of you. you made the best impression: perfection on the page. the wildest of hearts will never be tamed

This month's issue is full of self-belief, slow-burn growth, hard-earned honesty and the sort of records that arrive when artists trust their own instincts.

After major label pressure, near-breakups and some long, honest conversations, Ipswich alt-rock favourites Basement are back doing things their way.

Lip Critic, Shady Nasty, I Promised The World and Algernon Cadwallader also among new additions.

Their fifth album arrives in May via Run For Cover Records.

It's about standing on the edge of a really important decision.

The band will tour Europe this summer, ending at London's All Points East.

Rock band Basement will embark on their first headline tour across UK and Europe since 2024, supported by Anxious.
