Autons - Snakes
(Big Badger / Repeat) Hey scenesters, hey hey scenesters... Listen up, because there are some things you need to know about Autons. Having formed after meeting at a Doctor Who audition (hence the name), the band have now signed to Big Badger Recordings, an offshoot of Cambridges notorious R*E*P*E*A*T label. MTV and Radio One are swarming all over this band like flies around shit. And if thats not enough to grab your attention, they have some pretty fine tunes, too. On Snakes, intricate sci-fi synthesisers resound urgently, and Vocalist Dan Autons petulant Lydonesque snarl is truly venomous. B-side Ice Major sounds worryingly similar to Electric Sixs Dance Commander at times, but is nonetheless fantastic. Like Hot Chip, Autons are an irritatingly infectious band to be enjoyed over and over and over again.
