Automatic Return with Is It Now?
If you missed listening to Excess, the 2022 LP from Automatic, you should go give it a few spins, as it’ll get you prepared for the exciting news that the LA outfit has a new record on its way. The title track from their forthcoming Is It Now LP just recently dropped, and already there’s tons of attention growing around the trio. This single emphasizes the band’s focus on the rhythm section, which clearly drives the hook on this song; the punctuation mark comes from the ways the vocals get delivered in and out of the locked hooks in the bass line, begging you to bob and weave around your own room. It doesn’t hurt that there’s a nice wash of synthetic atmospherics sliding across the tune either. Is It Now will drop this Fall via Stones Throw.
