Los Angeles retrofuturist motorik pop trio Automatic (Izzy Glaudini, Lola Dompé, Halle Saxon) announce their first headlining North American tour in support of their acclaimed new album, Excess.
To mark this, they’ve shared a wonderful new video for “Automaton”, created by Yana Pan and Jenny Nirgends, using paper-cut animations to illustrate one automaton’s journey to break from the pack and create something new.
“Automaton is about having to deprogram yourself from capitalist ways of thinking, but, of course, we framed the song in our sci-fi theme – with an actual automaton as protagonist,” says the band. The track is extremely catchy – a delightful way to go down with the proverbial ship as Gen-Z takes an ailing planet for its test spin.
