biographical info
The Automation emerges finally after 2 years with their first EP. 5 tracks recorded over the past year at MOPUS STUDIOS, Nelson BC. The soundscapes vary from vibrant new wave textures to the dark aspects of early punk rock.
Music from the Automation has appeared on RED BULL's Stomping grounds, ABSINTHE FILM's Flipside Series, and many other films. The Band recently received 2 awards at the KMA's : Best New Band and Best Album, - now working on the follow up album to be launched this fall.
The tour is in the works for spring/summer 2012 and the EP is avaliable now (in physical form- itunes and cd baby)
