AUTOGRAMM Announce European Tour Dates with Vinyl Single “Diana” b/w “Licht Aus”
The more we dive into this band’s growing discography, the more we are intrigued enough to keep digging. On our latest peek at the indie scene we are checking out “Diana”, the latest from Autogramm. Autogramm, a band deeply embedded in the art, punk, and skateboarding scenes worldwide, has left their mark on stages across North America and Europe, including notable venues like London’s Lexington, Berlin’s Wild At Heart, and San Francisco’s Bottom of the Hill. Their music has gained recognition in international press and radio, with their album “No Rules” reaching #3 on CBC Radio 3 and charting for five months in college radio in the US and Canada. Comprising members with diverse musical backgrounds, Autogramm’s latest album, “Music That Humans Can Play,” recorded during a sweltering heatwave in Vancouver, offers a genre-blending musical experience that appeals to a wide range of listeners, from dedicated record store connoisseurs to garage rock enthusiasts and synth-pop aficionados, showcasing their enduring passion for their artistic influences.
Autogramm, the vibrant synth-driven power-pop trio hailing from Seattle, Chicago, and Vancouver, has just dropped their latest single on Beluga Records. The release features their original track “Diana” alongside a cover of 80s German new wave band Nichts’ “Licht Aus”. “Diana” sees the band exploring darker sonic realms, blending influences from Depeche Mode and Human League with a raw energy reminiscent of TSOL and Billy Idol. Bassist C.C. Voltage shares that the bassline idea for the song struck him during work breaks, where he’d sneak moments to tinker with a cheap synthesizer and Garageband. With contributions from The Silo and Jiffy in Chicago, Autogramm transforms the idea into a haunting yet infectious anthem. This release not only pays homage to their musical influences but also reflects the band’s journey towards crafting more emotionally resonant compositions, inviting listeners on a captivating sonic adventure through pulsating rhythms and evocative melodies.
