Paul Mullen from Yourcodenameis:milo has joined The Automatic!
Does anyone think they are capable of a hit as big as The Automatic?
Their new song sounds pretty sweet!

© DrownedinSound.com | From the Archive - Subtle: overcoming odds in pursuit of silver linings
so...
which band member are you then?
The Automatic! or The Automatic?
You decide.
How about The Automatic?!
That's not been done before.
Some about 'not been done before'
not often being heard when talking about The Automatic, or something.
Da Automatic sukkah
dey pulled out of ma locul MPs gig e was puttin on to be all reluvunt and shiz. dey wuz gonna headline but chose to do radio innervue instead. boo the 'matic
What the hell are you?
I know this is street teaming and all, but if a member of yourcodenameis:milo has
joined the Automatic, and ycni:m are basically defunct, then presumably they're definitely NOT capable of as a big a hit as the Automatic.
[Abandon life]
definitly The Automatic!
nope just a lil fan from London :)
that doesn't make any sense
why
why doesnt it?
for a start, I didn't ask a question, so 'definitely the Automatic' is
an answer to a question that wasn't asked.
The Automatic have always been the answer
to a question that was never asked!
because no one wanted to...
ok guys, I thiunk that joke's been drilled far enough into the ground now
cheers
Hey guys, I thiunk it's impossible to drill the Automatic
far enough into the ground.
^ excellent
hahaha
YAY
They're from Cowbridge!
I used to work there.
street teams:odious
So anyone that supports a band is instantly labelled as some sort of industry?
hmmmm
When you join a music forum purely to JAG the wares
of one particular band, yes. An industry. An odious, annoying, pointless industry.
I hope you're happy with the posters and pin-badges they gave you as payment, I really do. But your work is done here now, you can move on. Thank you.
well actually
Ive just finished school?! i dont know what your on about, i know you guys know more about msuic than me, fair enough. just give me a chance?
and
If i was working for their record company, why am i fighting their corner?
because that makes perfect sense :D
:D:D

This thread should now be called the 'post here to insult the fuck out of some cunt thread!'
Punkrock101
If you're not a street teamer then I take it back...it's just that it looked very much like a street team post.
I bet you're straight lego type hair parts to the left....
for one emo-kid, trying to use the whole daddy touching thing just shows the desperate nature of a my chemical romance fan trying to win a fight, I bet you've tried to skateboard at least once in you're life!
I mean, its not that the whole world doesnt understand you,
its that we just dont give a fuck!
nope
dont really care for Fall out boy, MCR or any of that, i gotta list of Music you can check it out :)

Can you be quiet please?
You're getting seriously boring.

YEAH!
your thread is helping me alot.
This thread has gone very wrong now. Ho hum.
in fairness
I bet he wears skinny jeans, stripey tops and says the word "dude" and "man" in a half posh village fete and half wannabe american accent.
Ha ha
So bitter! Can't you fit into yoru skinny jeans any more? Just kiddin init ;-)

This aint derry....
...it might aswell be with 16 yr old mommy and daddy boys acting hard, but ah well, what can we do, kids these days think there so big,
awh bless!
Vasectomy?
your pretty much firing blanks mate.
oh dear
I'm gonna take a break from the bashing of this poor kid
And say The Automatic are pretty decent.
Other than the massive shitfest that was Monster, their album was quite good.
However, in pictures they are always wearing ATD-I and Glassjaw tshirts and I weep for the band they could have been.
Posh kids screaming with guitars!
.....its what they were destined to be.
_
Nice work, using a music forum to talk about music!
Yeah i think to a certain extent they are trying to re-market themselves... and i think they hold some hard feelings against their old singer
Stop letting you're mommy write replies and fight back Ya gimp
seriously,
I like some weird shit,
but the automatic!
FUCK OFF!
How have you managed to come onto a blatant JAG thread
and yet come out of it making yourself look like the cunt?
I am so confused by everything that is going on here
I bet you were called smelly in school!
...that is all!
They sacked Pennie
And he wasn't the singer, he was the shouter. Mullen is replacing him.
We've had Foals subverting the indie genre with math-rock, now let's get the kids listening to post-indiecore =p
ALLAH AKBAR!
Im away to bed, cause im drunk and sleepy
enjoy you're Daily mails!
i like Foals.
but they are in NO WAY SUBVERTING ANYTHING. also, "the indie genre"- please, stop. NOWWWWWWWWWW
They are in a way
Since they'll be every Enemy fan's first "serious" album.
I hate pigeonholing as much as the next person, but I feel it necessary for people to know what I'm talking about.
if by serious you mean
good.
I mean good
And also as in "proper" music, not throwaway schmindie.
I was hoping their success would lead to more people listening to Don Cab, Minus The Bear, Sweep The Leg Johnny etc but alas, Cassius has become yet another "shoutalong" annoyance
they've led me onto
hella, battles, minus the bear and maps&atlases. good times.
Good lad.
Give Parts & Labor a try too, they're tops.
this thread has turned into a your/you're massacre
shame on us all
:D
I blame Tuesday
shit day innit? Puts everyone in a bad mood.
An Automatic thread on a Friday would have been far more accessable
isn't it Wednesday?
Pedant
I thought this too
but tuesday was the day of conception
no no
it wasn't.
liar!
who are the automatic?
did they do that annoying song?
no I'M INDIER
Fine work sir, fine work
INDIA? ABYSSINIA L8R
Yep.
However it produced one of the best anti-Gooner chants I've ever heard.
WHAT'S THAT COMING OUT OF YOUR SOCK?
IS IT YOUR SHIN BONE?
NO ITS YOUR ANKLE!
What's that coming over the hill?
Is it a monster?
No. It's an out-of-control thread! And it's coming straight for us! Flee.
Are threads supposed to be linear and coherent?
That's complete news to me.
I propose everybody posts their favourite non-indigenous fruit (to the uk)
with an adjective after it
banana
nutritious
mango
dee-licious
Pineapple
Spiky
Why is everyone so angry?
FUCK OFF
Touche
*touchy
:D
*toucan
play at that game
:D
Watermelon
seedy
Granny Smith apples.
Crunchy.
Avocado Pears
curious.
/\ /\ Non-indigenous only!
For fucks sake!!! |Youve made me so angry now, more than I already was!!!
That was supposed to have slotted
nicely unmder the granny smiths by the way not the pears, now im literally livid
Granny Smiths
are from New Zealand.
A WINRAR IS ME.
Googling tells me England
but has also provided mixed results. I will be writing to Granny Smith HQ for full clarification. My findings will be posted under a new thread title of 'The Automatic are the musical equivalent of the pink slime in ghostbusters II'
Wiki sez:
Granny Smith, or green apple, is a tip-bearing apple cultivar. It originated in Australia in 1868 from a chance seedling propagated by Maria Ann Smith (nee Sherwood), where the name "Granny Smith" comes from.[1] They are found wild in New Zealand; it was originally introduced to the United Kingdom circa 1935 and the United States in 1972 by Grady Auvil.

In any case
apples in general are indigenous. I said non-indigenous fruits not brands or sub-genuses. Though I have to congratulation on your knowledge of apples/your internet browsing skills.
That's all I'll ever ask for.
<3
WELL THIS IS THE ANGRY THREAD, AFTER ALL
rrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr
yeah! what kind of "douche" "bag"
desn't scrutinise every post dilligently???
I will peel off the little stickers fomr your apples and place them neatly on items of clothing you only wear for special occasions! Mwaha!
Are you a street-teamer for being calm and placid?
Well, ARE YOU?
I'm a street teamer.
GREEN STREET.
How dare you
I'm just a fan looking for other peoples opinons
Oh please don't
let me be misunderstood.
I think you sir may have missunderstood me
I was replying to Bamos
It's all good over here!
<33333
All I can say is...
Mercury's in retrograde
All you did
was look at the massive ad at the top of the page.
That's just lazy.
Well, I am easily influenced...
imagine what that gay ad has done to me
Fiddle
with your thermometers?
if your question is:
Are "The Automatic" capable of a hit as big as "The Automatic" ?
The answer logically has to be: yes, they are. They would not be able to produce a hit bigger or smaller than themselves, as they are The Automatic.
I tried this earlier
turns out the correct answer is 'I bet you were called smelly in school'.
There appears to be a number of possible answers.
Im going to heahly ruht you foh saying trat
i can't believe
i just read all of this.
reverend d head is annoying.
Yawn
another DiS gang-rape
such an
ugly ugly band
Stop being such cunts
(those of you who are being cunts). The kid asked a fairly incoherent question, granted, but i don't think the vitriol it triggered was quite necessary.
THAT IS ALL.
I thought we were all just having fun
in a quirky, moany kinda way.
No vitriol intended by me at least.
stop saying 'Vitriol' its annoying
besides punkrock101 had as much a a crack out of it as every one else, you should be sparing a thought for poor old ginger beard
kiwi fruit
vitriolic.
LOL!
Yes they are and hairy
I've seen some threads go off topic in my time but this one takes the biscuit
To the answer: no, not as big as Monster. That song was huge.
But the rest pretty much bombed. The album was good but extremely repetitive after a few listens. Considering the influences they list and the personal tastes they have, they could be much, much better. Only time will tell if they actually do get better.
