Basement - I Wish I Could Stay Here - Yellow Splatter Color Vinyl Record

Basement's debut album I Wish I Could Stay Here returns on yellow splatter vinyl from Run For Cover Records. The Ipswich band formed in 2010 and released this record just a year later, and its blend of melodic hardcore grit and emotional, hook-heavy alternative rock quickly won them fans on both sides of the Atlantic.Mixed and mastered by Jesse Cannon, the album is raw and urgent but never short on melody. "Fading" opens with a rush, "Plan To Be Surprised" and "Canada Square" pair crunching guitars with sing-along choruses, and "Crickets Throw Their Voice" shows how much feeling the band could pack into a few short minutes. The second half closes on the slow-burning "Grayscale" and "March", a reminder of why this record still sits at the heart of 2010s emo and pop-punk.The bright yellow splatter makes this pressing a standout on any shelf. A must for Basement fans and anyone who grew up on Title Fight, Citizen and Turnover.Side A 1. Fading 2. Plan To Be Surprised 3. Canada Square 4. Crickets Throw Their VoiceSide B 1. Ellipses 2.
