Autodrone formed in early 2002, based on a mutual love of dream pop and early 90's Brit Rock. Seemlessly melding the sonic dynamics of noise and pop with throbbing bass lines, jagged, angular synths, searing dark atmospheric guitars and urgently violent banshee vocals, Autodrone have no problem reaching out from the stage to the crowd, grabbing you by the throat, and screaming in your face, even when in reality sometimes they are only whispering.
Their shows are an intense emotional surge for the band and audience alike. Their self-released EPs have quickly developed the attention of the UK and American Press garnering universally favorable reviews, while easily selling out of print. Autodrone are quickly becoming one of the most exciting and talked about bands in the NYC indie rock underground, catch the on tour on both coasts the UK and Europe soon!.
Praise for Panic:
"Panic, while giving the finger to conventional standards of popular music, manages to be just as infectious as the most contrived pop sensations" - AltSounds
"The EP is one of the best of the year" - AbsolutePunk
"Noise-pop cum dance punk is the recipe that Autodrone has found all the ingredients for. Loud and melodic female vocals grip you from start to finish with pulsing bass grooves and atmospheric synths leading the way. The New York City based quartet has the New Order-esque dance rhythms down while the gothic tinged lyrics recall the Cure. But there's plenty of punk vibes to get your heart pumpin'. " – smother.net
