Huh? This is Head Automatica's new record? Where's Dan The Automator? Isn't he part of this project with lead Head dude/vocalist Daryl Palumbo? I'm so confused. Taken off their second full length called Popaganda, the hip hop meets new wave via punk pop blend seems to have basically left the building along with Dan's production stylings. And while the track has it's popular, more conventional feel, it also seems to have departed a little too far from it's mongrel mix of genres that made it seem fresh, young and new when the first album slinked it's way into the public. Director Jake Davis takes the opportunity to showcase the New York quintet's downtown east village appeal with Darryl's rather bushy five o'clock umbra. Watch the music video (qt).
