The Automatic // Tear Down The Signs

Now five years on from their amazing first album ‘Not Accepted Anywhere’ and all of them treated like anthemic tunes wrapped inside like ‘Recover’, ‘Raoul’ and of course ‘Monster’...and who could forget their outstanding live lounge cover of Kanye West’s ‘Gold Digger’, the boys from the valleys are back with their third studio album and they’ve made some big changes to The Automatic Monster. As the chaps from the small welsh village of Cowbridge have become tired of labels and major record ones at that, release this their third album ‘Tear The Signs Down’ they have in fact gone and done that with this album and from ripping all the labels and signs down from The Automatic Monster they had become we’re left with a very different sound than you might have expected from the boys. With the album marking a massive leap in their musical and lyrical style and even revealing a slightly darker side to them, so don’t expect the catchy choruses and screams belting out of this album as you would have found with them previously. As the boys are now free from a major record label and released this album on their own Armoured Records label, with the help of producer Richard Jackson in their own Cardiff studio, this album marks the revelling of the real Automatic as they get back to reality and their roots.
