This Is a Fix

by The Automatic

• Buy it at Amazon.com

2008 sophomore album from the Welsh Pop rockers. This Is A Fix is an unashamedly British take on the US-flavored Welsh Hardcore scene that birthed the band. Taking a stylistic jump off from first album track `By My Side', it's all the more impressive that the band have retained their identity, as the album was produced globally: in Cardiff with Richard Jackson, in Los Angeles with Butch Walker and in London with Steve Harris. It's an album about stepping up and finding your place in the world. Not quite about growing up, it's a confident collection of songs sure of themselves and of their messages. 12 tracks including the first single 'Steve McQueen'. B-Unique.
