Bio:
"Automata was born in Santiago-Chile in the year
2000 formed by Alfredo Smith (Drums), Iñaki Varela (Guitar, also in
Exsimio), Sebastián Lekanda (Guitar, also in Bella e Putana) and
Luciano Gómez (Bass Guitar, also in Alambique Veloz). After a couple of
live shows and a demo recording that was never released, Gómez leaves
the band.
<>

After a long and unsuccessful search for a bass player, the band
decided to explore the "electronics" world. This allow them to write
the bass lines, opening possibilities for the aplication of new musical
resources into their work.

After a long period of composing and adapting to their new
condition, Automata started performing some live shows in 2003. In
August 2004, the band began the recording of Mecanica (their first
album) which was finally released in September 2005. This was
accomplished independently with the kind support of Estudios L.S.E and
Bolchevique Records. 

The music of Automata may be labelled as Instrumental Progressive Metal
with influences of bands like King Crimson, Rush, Tool and Meshuggah,
among many others.

Automata's debut album has been distributed in several countries
and although it has been around for only a few months, it has already
impressed critics and the audience in general. Automata has already
gained recognition, occupying an important and privileged spot in the
world of music."
