One of the bands I saw last week was The Automatic who spawn from Wales.

I saw them earlier this year and didn't really like them. With that in mind I wasn't going to pay much attention to them last week - they were one band out of four playing - but I found myself eating my previous words about them.

They played a blinding set and one song in particular really kicked ass - and they're releasing it as a single next week. I actually think it'll do quite well :p

You can have a listen to it on their Myspace account. So go forth my minions and go and listen to MONSTER :p
