Automatic
Automatic is a post-punk band hailing from Los Angeles that has quickly gained attention for their unique sound and DIY ethos. Comprised of Izzy Glaudini on synths and vocals, Halle Saxon Gaines on bass and vocals, and Lola Dompé on drums and vocals, the band formed in 2017 and has since been making waves in the LA music scene and beyond. One of the most notable aspects of Automatic's music is their ability to blend different genres and influences into a cohesive and distinctive sound. They draw on elements of post-punk, synth-pop, and krautrock, creating a sonic landscape that is both familiar and fresh. The band cites influences such as Can, Suicide, and The Slits, but they manage to create something that is entirely their own. At the core of Automatic's sound is a driving rhythm section that provides a foundation for the band's layers of synths and vocals. Dompé's drumming is particularly noteworthy, with her propulsive beats providing a sense of urgency and momentum
