TLV068: AUTOBAHN - AUTOBAHN 1. - 12"/digital EP&#13;
&#13;

&#13;
'Seizure' is the lead track taken from AUTOBAHN's debut 3-track 12" EP, released on 11th November. &#13;
&#13;
PRESS RELEASE&#13;
On 11th November, Leeds-based five-piece AUTOBAHN announce themselves to the world with their unapologetically sinister and aggressive self-titled debut EP. A record for, and of, the night, AUTOBAHN conjure the dystopian nightmare world of 80s post-punk across three unrelenting tracks. Consider them Leeds’ very own Lost Boys, cloaked in feedback, showing their teeth. Despite forming in February 2013, and playing their first gig just months ago, they appear eerily fully formed.&#13;
&#13;
The group - a bunch of unknowns - have notched up word-of-mouth acclaim for their handful of visceral live shows, appearing on stages with the likes of Merchandise and Eagulls. While those bands are appropriate touchstones for those new to AUTOBAHN, if you look closer you’ll notice in their velvet jackets and puffed shirts a stargazing glamour at odds with their peers.&#13;
&#13;
On the surface, AUTOBAHN are a classic modern day punk band. But dig a little deeper and there’s a colourful underbelly to their sonic ambitions, vivid like a new bruise. Their name’s a reference to Kraftwerk, hinting at a European intensity, while tracks like the scabrous ‘Lost Tongue’, are transgressive in the same way as early Public Image Limited. What’s more, there’s real catharsis at the heart of these songs: the opening track, 'Seizure', is about having a small fit in Brighton., while all the lyrics point to a very millennial sense of helplessness. AUTOBAHN 1. , then, is a bacchanalian trawl through the psyche, kind of unhinged, and staring right through you.&#13;
&#13;
&#13;
They have announced a UK tour with dates supporting Girls Names and the aforementioned Eagulls, as well as a special EP launch show at Brudenell Social Club, Leeds. Dates are as follows:&#13;
&#13;
24 October - Sheffield, Bungalows and Bears w/Girls Names&#13;
29 October - Leeds, Brudenell Social Club w/Girls Names&#13;
02 November - Brighton, Green Door Store w/Girls Names&#13;
16 November - Leeds, Brudenell Social Club **EP LAUNCH**&#13;
05 December - London, Sebright Arms w/Eagulls&#13;
06 December - Cardiff, Moon Club w/Eagulls&#13;

Marika Hackman - Cinnamon

This is the 4th track from Ch'Lu's Arts Council & Help Musicians funded album "The Goddess Within", due out with the album on June 9th, for Global Wellness Day. 

Composed, performed, recorded, mixed and produced by Ch'Lu in her home studio, "The Goddess Within" album is a fusion of binaural field-recordings, hypnotic Sanskrit vocals, classical guitar arpeggiation and electronic soundscapes. 

Using the ancient Sanskrit texts of the Mandukya Upanishads, which create the experience and journey of "Om", it is the ultimate Sound Medicine. 

“Dreaming” is the experience of the second conscious state, where consciousness is turned towards the inner world.

A polyglot polymath, Ch’Lu has been studying Sanskrit for the last thirteen years, alongside her teaching and practice of Vedic meditation, which fuels her drive to expand consciousness through creativity and performance. As a classical guitarist, singer, actress, linguist (13 languages) and martial artist, her creative vision is to fuse the ancient with the voice of the Zeitgeist, throwing in a contemporary edge, humour and the element of surprise. 

Here's a link to the music video of an earlier version of the opening track - Aum:

Lyrics:

svapna-sthāno’ntaḥ-prajñaḥ saptāṅga ekonavimśati-mukhaḥ 
pravivikta-bhuk taijaso dvītiyaḥ pādah. 

Second is Dreaming / Subtle: 
The second aspect of Atman is the Self in the Dreaming state, Taijasa. In this second state, consciousness is turned towards the inner world. It also 
operates through seven instruments and nineteen channels, 
which engage the subtle objects of the mental realm.

The Goddess Within

Dreaming

It’s the wonder-drug on everyone’s tongues right now …

On 16 June, London-based mummycore kitchenpunk band I, Doris release their latest single, 'HRT' – a ridiculously catchy poppy-post-punk banger with a powerful message about gynecological healthcare. It comes with a superfun accompanying music video, during the filming of which two Dorisses got themselves thrown out of Brixton’s TK Maxx store. (They regret nothing.)

'HRT' marks the gold standard of I, Doris’ hallmark biting humour and feminist commentary. With its driving bassline, catchy keytar bop and enormous guitar riffs, the song speaks to the frustrations and challenges of navigating the healthcare system, particularly when it comes to access to hormone replacement therapy.

"So many people with wombs face an uphill battle in obtaining the healthcare they need. 'HRT' is about the struggle to be taken seriously and the fight to access the care we need to live our lives on our own terms. Also, it’s a disco banger. Now, what was I just saying?"

Despite the serious subject matter, 'HRT' is full of punk rock fun and humour, with playful lyrics and an instant singalong chorus. The accompanying music video, directed by talented filmmaker Minni Moody, features a cast of hormone replacement therapy users of all genders, who come together to create a powerful visual representation of the song's themes of resilience and rebellion.

Parts of the video were filmed guerrilla style in TK Maxx in Brixton, with band members Doris and Doris captured being removed from the store, adding to the rebellious spirit of the song. The video also sees the band (a six-Doris lineup) recording the song in Brixton Hill Studios, with their producer Stephen Gilchrist also being roped in to play the part of “The Doctor”.

I, Doris formed in 2017 and consists of a large collective, all known on stage by the moniker Doris, including vocalist/bassist Cassie Fox (who is also the founder of the LOUD WOMEN organisation), Vic Workman, Charlotte Burke, Abby Weth, Lucy Morgan and Kate Wozza. The band's hilarious but unapologetically feminist lyrics and high-entertainment live performances have earned them a loyal following and critical acclaim.

Live dates:
27 May – Bearded Theory festival
24 June – HRT single launch gig at The Windmill, Brixton (with Les Futiles + The Untitled Band Project + The Menopause Army + more)
4 August – Rebellion Festival (Opera stage)
5 August – Brighton Pride (Queertown stage)
16 Sept – LOUD WOMEN Fest, Rich Mix

Lyrics for HRT 
 
I’m having panic attacks in TK Maxx
In between the irons and the laundry racks
Sweating like a turkey on Christmas Eve
But my boss says no way to sick leave
I have needs
(Now where'd I put my keys?)
 
These procrastinations give me palpitations
My oestrogen receptors having aggravations
Sweating like Theresa in a field of wheat
Trouble from my loaf to my plates of meat
I have needs
(Now where'd I put my keys?)
 
Disco dancing on my pelvic floor
What d’I come in this room for?
 
Doctor doctor what's wrong with me
I haven’t finished rocking at forty-three
Slap me on a patch cos I wanna par-tee
Just give me therapy and HRT
HRT
I have needs
HRT
I have needs
  
It should be unlawful to feel this awful
The factors causal, perimenopausal
sweating like a Doris without HRT
Sahara desert up my wizard's sleeve,
I have needs
(Now where'd I put my keys?)
 
Disco dancing on my pelvic floor
What d’I come in this room for?
 
Doctor doctor what's wrong with me
I haven’t finished rocking at fifty-three
Slap me on a patch cos I wanna par-tee
Just give me therapy and HRT
HRT
I have needs
HRT
I have needs
 
(Instrumental)
 
Disco dancing on my pelvic floor
What d’I come in this room for?
 
Doctor doctor what's wrong with me
I haven’t finished rocking at sixty-three
Slap me on a patch cos I wanna par-tee
Just give me therapy and HRT
HRT
I have needs
HRT
I have needs

Give It Up

Welcome to YINYANG’s haunted haus of fun, where elements of hip hop, rap, electronic and alternative styles blend as if they’ve been waiting to synthesize. It’s dripping with cool and promises to prick your ears.

Kill Jester serves a murderous sonic cacophony about reincarnation and dropping dead weight in the form of inner demons. Sinister yet slick visuals dropping in 2 weeks, fierce yet positive message. “Don’t pursue it, if it’s not a fuck yes.”

Kill Jester - YINYANG

Cock of the fifth year is what we called the biggest jock types when I was in high school. Cocky, brash loud and overly confident. Puffed up, swaggering, mouthy bellends who can be pretty intimidating when you’re a woman just trying to get on with your day.

But it's not just in high school we encounter them, they're everywhere: the LinkedIn narcissist, the Tinder predator, and the (very scary) furious nice guy etc.

The phrase ‘lock up your sons’ will be contentious but we're not endorsing prison systems (far from it). The point is, the phrase’ lock up your daughters’ is relentless and women are always told to be careful, not wear headphones when walking at night, be wary of predators on the streets carry your keys between your knuckles as a weapon. Women are told they need to protect themselves by avoiding walking alone in the dark home from a night out, cosseted, hidden away safe from the threat of, let’s face it, male violence. On that logic, why not lock the blokes up at home for women's safety at night if they can’t be trusted to behave?
