Autobahns is the brainchild of Giuliano Iannarella, who self-produced this debut album over the last two years in Lugano (Switzerland) and Leipzig (Germany). Based on the songs that occupy a spectrum between extraterrestrial egg punk and chain punk, one might be tempted to diagnose Iannarella as a hyperactive kid with anger issues and a short attention span. But making a diagnosis from afar would be unprofessional, wouldn’t it?
Armchair psychology aside, this is one wild record. It’s fast, intense, and more varied than your average egg punk offering. Iannarella’s sonic concoctions keep you guessing, proving there’s more to this subgenre than meets the ear. First LP! is out now through a strong team of labels that includes Feral Kid, Legless, Phantom, and Magüt.
