Label: Cochon

Released 2006

In 2005, the Vanishing's singer/sax player Jessie Evans moved to Berlin. Then, like a personal ad from God in an alternate universe, she met Bettina Köster, singer/sax player from the pioneering, John Peel-beloved post-punk band Malaria!. A year later, the two are the vox/sax duo Autonervous, with a self-titled debut album on Cochon Records (the label Evans co-runs). Autonervous mixes two undergrounds, Berlin 1980 (Koster) and San Francisco 2000 (Evans). There's an Amanda Lear cover ("Gold"), a German-language reworking of the Vanishing's "Still Lifes" ("Still Kaltes") and, natürlich, lyrics about love 'n chains.
