March 3, 2026 Ben Pagani

English rock band Basement have announced their first new album in eight years. WIRED will be released on May 8 via Run For Cover Records. The LP will include 12 total songs, including two new tracks released today, the title track “WIRED” and “Broken By Design.” Check out the full tracklist below. Read on to view the album art.

“‘WIRED’ is about how sometimes it feels that we are set up to feel and behave in certain ways beyond our control,” said lead vocalist Andrew Fisher. “That no matter how hard you try to hide it, eventually it will come out – either by choice or by force. This song was almost lost – a few of us were into it, but it sort of lost traction for a bit. Then one day it cropped back up and we put it at the forefront of our minds and it ended up being one of my favourite songs to perform and record.”
