The Automatic have announced that their keyboardist and backing vocalist, Alex Pennie, you know, the slightly hyperactive one, has left the group. The diminutive screamer released a statement that revealed his reasons for quitting the band, saying that he "left due to finding the last year increasingly unenjoyable" (or "less enjoyable", perhaps) adding that he had been "growing apart from the rest of the band". The remaining members will continue to release and tour under The Automatic moniker however, and are set to begin recording the follow-up to their successful debut 'Not Accepted Anywhere' in America soon. Whether they recruit a new member to jump at the back a bit irritatingly is yet to be confirmed.
