Gear up to hear some good music with Autorub’s “The Falling (432Hz)”, the latest track from the band. With their innovative blend of modern and classic sounds, this NYC-based band is not only focused on making you feel good but also seeks to soothe your soul.
Led by multi-instrumentalist mastermind Michael Corn, Autorub has a pedigree steeped in rock royalty. Corn’s a veteran of the post-grunge scene with bands like Sammy and Heydevils, and his songwriting chops are on full display here. “The Falling” is a prime example – it’s a powerful, driving anthem that wouldn’t sound out of place on a playlist alongside Weezer, Green Day, or Foo Fighters.
Despite any obstacles, Autorub is not afraid to try their luck. The song’s enhanced with classic analogue synths, adding a touch of Bowie/Eno or Gary Numan to the mix. This unexpected twist elevates the track from a standard rock banger to something that’s undeniably Autorub.
The lyrics? The band’s signature humour meets sharp social commentary, creating a remarkable combination. Corn’s sardonic humour gleams over as he delivers clever lines wrapped in lively tunes.
Here’s the kicker: “The Falling” is tuned to 432Hz. This lower tuning allegedly boasts healing properties, harking back to a tuning standard used before the “suspicious” switch to 440Hz in 1939. Whether it actually heals your chakras or not is debatable, but it certainly adds to the song’s unique appeal.
Autorub isn’t just another band releasing another rock song. “The Falling (432Hz)” is a masterpiece, both musically and sonically. It’s an anthem with a pop edge, a rockin’ tune that might just leave you feeling a little lighter on your feet (and soul). So, let Autorub’s sonic sorcery take hold. You might just find yourself singing along, feeling good, and questioning the very fabric of musical tuning – all at the same time.
