AUTOGRAMM Drop Synth-Soaked Power Pop Album with Video for “Born Losers” || Stomp Records
We need more power pop in our lives, luckily we have a few talents in the pool that can help with that. On our latest visit to Stomp Records we are checking out “Music That Humans Can Play”, the new album 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’s latest album Music That Humans Can Play pays homage to 80s influences like The Fixx and David Bowie while delivering a cohesive blend of nostalgic soundscapes. The album resonates with themes spanning from the humorous to the poignant, encapsulating experiences from love during COVID-19 in “Love is for Fools” to themes of self-acceptance and celebration in tracks like “Born Losers” and “WannaBe.” Each song showcases the band’s ability to craft finely tuned compositions that resonate both emotionally and musically, offering a blend of introspection and universal appeal. CC Voltage’s personal inspiration behind “Hey Allie,” a song dedicated to his unborn daughter after a challenging year, adds a touching layer of intimacy to an album that balances personal narratives with broader themes of resilience and joy. Music That Humans Can Play stands as a testament to Autogramm’s skill in melding diverse influences into a cohesive and memorable musical journey.
