Despite its heaviness, however, it’s also an opus minor which induces a remarkable feeling of calm as its sonics wash over you with the lethargy of a Mediterranean summer tide.‘ [PlanetMosh.co.uk]‘Slow and purposeful with absolutely no note wasted, there is nothing here to become tedious.’ [uberrock.co.uk]Info - Connactwww.automatonband.comhttps://www.youtube.com/c/AutomatonAthenshttps://www.facebook.com/Automaton.Athens/https://automatonathens.bandcamp.com/:Skull & Dawn:They play americana dark folk / country music soaked with bourbo. They started in 2001 as Defile des ames having a more3 avant garde / fold aesthetic. After an album (“Lust ‘n’ Stone” – 2008), participations in many compilations and also many live appearances, the basic members decided that the circle is closed, changing the name of the band to: :Skull & Dawn: and leading the vision to the other side of the Atlantic (2010).Links:https://www.facebook.com/skullanddawn/https://skullanddawn.bandcamp.com/Tracks:GG Allin - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yu3xCbLj1mMDesert (studio) : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=igOfGiZ3NRkVoodoo Train (studio) : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IJ1vn6ojSGsKingdom of the corn (Live - new song) : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=G0ljWJguV4gKnoxville Girl (Live – new song) : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wvuuU5oIhcIAmniacThree years after the release of their debut full length album “Infinite” in 2014 the quartet from Piraeus/Greece returns with the “Matriarch”, which is the most mature thing that the band gave since its formation in 2010 until today.The release of Matriarch was sealed by quality concerts of Amniac in Athens and the province, their support appearance of the French Alcest, as well as their participation to the New Long Fest 2017, appearances which received excellent reviews by the audience and the local music press.https://www.facebook.com/AmniacBand/https://amniac.bandcamp.com/
