Automatic have announced a new album, Is It Now?, which comes out 26 via Stones Throw. The follow-up to 2022’s Excess was produced by Loren Humphrey (Arctic Monkeys, Cameron Winter). Following the release of the title track last month, the Los Angeles trio have today shared a new single called ‘Mercury’. Check it out and find the album cover and tracklist below.
According to vocalist and synth player Izzy Glaudini, the lyrics of ‘Mercury’ are a reminder “not to fall into nihilism or cynicism, to instead see life through a bit of a spiritual lens.” She added, “Despite the horrible shit constantly happening, life can still be mysterious and beautiful. I wanted to lean into a sense of dreaminess, and to have the verses feel like a dark lullaby.”
