Basht. - Keira Knightley

Dublin outfit Basht. have today revealed their scintillating new single Keira Knightley, taken from their upcoming debut album Poor Advice, out 9th October via LAB Records. Blending grunge aesthetics with snarling punk energy, the track hits with a blistering intensity and offers another thrilling taste of what’s to come. Vocalist and guitarist Jack Leavey comments: "This song is about the desperate lengths people go to in an effort to save a relationship. “I’ll call you daily / hold you tightly / ring your bell like Keira Knightley" [a reference to the movie Love Actually]. It’s about a relationship I had that started off being incredibly exciting and loving but then slowly devolved into jealousy, desperation and resentment. “Our flirtations undeciding / I’m not sure if he’s just a friend / something’s different, why are you crying / is this about to end?” Sonically we wanted to push the dial out from what we’ve previously released and give people a new flavour of Basht. and a hint of what’s to come." Take a listen below.
