AUTOBAHN look to the ‘Future’ on their new track

Their new album ‘The Moral Crossing’ is out in November.

Leeds post-punks AUTOBAHN recently announced that they’d be releasing their second album ‘The Moral Crossing’ in November, and unveiled the six-minute, blistering title track.

Now they’re back with a second glance at what to expect from the record and, as is to be expected from the Leeds lot, it’s a bit of a doozy. ‘Future’ is all motoric beats, fuzzed-out vocals, swirling synths and gritty riffs, nestling up against each other in a dazzling package.

Frontman Craig Johnson said of the new track: “The song is about looking forward and supporting one another through darker times. It’s an attempt to be positive. This is probably the closest we’ve got to a pop song, there’s definitely influence from the likes of Human League and Gary Numan in there. I remember trying to work out how to structure this type of song, so we leaned on the Wham! classic Club Tropicana for a leg up”.

AUTOBAHN are also taking ‘The Moral Crossing’ on a tour of the UK in November. Tickets are on sale now.
