Hamilton, Ontario indie-rock trio Basement Revolver have quickly become the bloggers favourite. In the spring of 2016, their debut single caught on with 20+ sites, making way for a well-received EP and mini-tour that summer. A year later, the band’s second EP builds on its predecessor’s sound: wistful, reverb-heavy guitar-pop indebted to the 1990s. It also finds songwriter and guitarist Chrisy Hurn opening up, like on the lead—”a lush track that parallels the health of the mind and the heart with the earth,”

It’s out on Yellow K Records (Japanese Breakfast) in the US and Fear of Missing Out Records in the UK.

Formed in the honest grit of Hamilton, Ontario, Basement Revolver have seen a quick and notable ascent into the spotlight with their unique brand of 90’s infused indie-rock. The band has been able to formulate a captivating and refined hypnotic aural experience typically found with those who are well beyond their years.

The trio have now returned, with a recently crafted EP in ‘Agatha’ and a new single ‘Mountains’ giving fresh indication of Basement Revolver’s towering aptitude for personally heart-rending music. Built on reverberating and poignant guitars, Hurn’s powerful voice is affectionate and unyielding as she sings from the very bottom “I am weak, but I carry you to mountains on my feet”. Reeling from hurt, Hurn steadily learns to be able to trust, their channelling of the past and detailing it’s overwhelming effect on the present and future a striking and commanding element to their music.

Speaking about the new track, Hurn details the intimate nature of it’s beginnings. “Mountains is a pretty personal song to me, it was written a few years back and reworked for the EP. I had a hard time believing that people could have good intentions when it came to relationships and love, but I’ve since learned that is not true. This song helped me to face parts of my past, and for that I am grateful.”

BASEMENT REVOLVER – ” Lake Steel And Oil “

The debut EP from Canadian trio Basement Revolver a new band from Hamilton Ontario. The Canadian’s have been teasing the release via a series of ever improving tracks and earlier this week they shared another snippet of the record in the shape of new single, Lake, Steel, Oil.

Whilst the bands previous output had already shown they could do energetic, and somewhat introspective indie-pop; on Lake, Steel, Oil they showcase a completely different side to their music. With nods to the likes of Lanterns On The Lake or Waxahatchee’s more recent output, it’s a gentle swell of musical ideas. Building around a lone guitar line and pulsing bass-line, eventually singer, Chrisy Hern’s vocal enters with a heartbroken tone reminiscent of Alvvay’s Molly Rankin, joined latterly by echoing, grandiose percussion. Dramatic and expansive, without ever falling into clichéd “here’s our big song” territory, it’s far better than a band so new to this musical game have any right to be. Another string in the band’s bow, and one that suggests there’s far more to Basement Revolver than they’re currently letting on, a very exciting prospect indeed.
