Autobahns First LP! LP

Good shit. I’ve been pretty critical of this so-called “egg-punk” movement since the CONEHEADS pretty much set the quality standard for that sound with their first LP. However, I think this band has something very interesting going for them. Lean, mean punk with enough spacy synths to keep it unique and refreshing. Very catchy riffs, with this nice kind of watery yet fuzzed-out production that keeps me captivated the whole way through. I also really enjoy the vocalist’s pissed-off sounding yelp—it complements songs like “Prick” and “Off Your Mask” very well. Clocking in at just 26 minutes, this is the kind of egg-punk that bum-rushes you with two 40s plus a bag of pills in its hands, and I’m lovin’ it.
