Automation was a Sydney death metal band formed in mid 1997 by one-time [[Neophobia]] drummer Goode and three quarters of the former '''Chaotic Realm/Impaludism''' line up. With clever lyrical sense and excellent songs, Automation made the sort of noise thrown up by the darkest extremities of Florida, but with a surprising amount of originality and diversity, which gave them a unique style. Automation quickly developed a solid following in Sydney due to the intensity and consistency of live performances, backed up by the excellent "My Gutter Child" EP release of mid-1999.
