'''Head Automatica''' is an American [[Rock music|rock]] band from [[Brooklyn]], [[New York (state)|New York]] fronted by [[Glassjaw]] frontman [[Daryl Palumbo]].

==History==

=== Formation, ''Decadance'' and ''Popaganda'' (2003–2006) ===
The beginnings of the band stemmed from singer Daryl Palumbo's interests in the [[hip hop music|hip hop]] and [[Britpop]] genres. Palumbo felt that the material that was inspired by these genres did not fit into Glassjaw's spectrum and so Head Automatica was created to showcase this.

The band's debut album, ''Decadence'', was released August 17, 2004. Charting on the [[Billboard 200|''Billboard'' 200]] and Top Heatseekers charts,<ref>[{{BillboardURLbyName|artist=head automatica|chart=all}}]{{dead link|date=December 2012}}</ref> the album was the brainchild of Palumbo, who was known better for his work in [[post-hardcore]] music, and [[Dan 'The Automator' Nakamura]], famous for his production work with groups including [[Gorillaz]] and [[Handsome Boy Modeling School]].  The two allegedly met at a party and worked on what later became the album.  Palumbo then recruited the other current members as a touring group, and toured the United States,<ref>{{cite web |url=http://www.celebrityaccess.com/members/tourdates/tdsearch.php?artistId=28093&repost=yes&history=yes |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20110708131058/http://www.celebrityaccess.com/members/tourdates/tdsearch.php?artistId=28093&repost=yes&history=yes |url-status=dead |archive-date=July 8, 2011 |title=Celebrity Access |publisher=Celebrity Access |access-date=August 13, 2012 }}</ref> playing with bands such as [[Interpol (band)|Interpol]], [[The Rapture (band)|The Rapture]], [[The Used]] and [[The Cure]].<ref>{{cite web |author=Geffen |url=http://www.thecure.com/blog/default.aspx?&in=344 |title=News : Curiosa Festival 2004 |publisher=The Cure |date=October 6, 2004 |access-date=December 25, 2012 |url-status=dead |archive-url=https://archive.today/20130204045810/http://www.thecure.com/blog/default.aspx?&in=344 |archive-date=February 4, 2013 }}</ref>

The band released their second album, entitled ''Popaganda'', on June 6, 2006.  This album was produced by [[Howard Benson]], who had already worked with Head Automatica on several tracks from ''Decadence''. With the departure of Nakamura, the band took a more organic, classic power-pop approach citing [[Squeeze (band)|Squeeze]] and [[Elvis Costello]] as influences.

In 2006, the band toured with [[Avenged Sevenfold]] and [[Coheed and Cambria]], and joined [[Taking Back Sunday]], [[Angels & Airwaves]], and [[The Subways]] for a month of touring on June 22. In October 2006, drummer and founding member [[Larry Gorman]] was fired from the band for undisclosed reasons, with Brandon Reid being announced as his replacement.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.absolutepunk.net/showthread.php?t=180790 |title=Larry Gorman is Out - News Article |publisher=AbsolutePunk.net |date=October 19, 2006 |access-date=December 25, 2012}}</ref> The band scheduled a headlining fall tour with [[Rock Kills Kid]], but chose to cancel it after playing only a few dates. Instead, they supported [[Thirty Seconds to Mars]] on their [[Welcome to the Universe Tour]] along with [[The Receiving End of Sirens]], [[Cobra Starship]], and [[Rock Kills Kid]]. In early 2007, Head Automatica played direct support on The West Coast Winter Tour with [[Jack's Mannequin]], [[We Are The Fury]], and [[The Audition (band)|The Audition]]. The band visited the UK for the first time for a headlining tour that started at Southampton University on May 23, 2007,<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.nme.com/news/nme/27928 |title=Head Automatica announce UK tour &#124; News |publisher=Nme.Com |date=April 25, 2007 |access-date=December 25, 2012}}</ref> and performed at [[Rock Am Ring]] festival in Nürburg, Germany on June 1.<ref>{{cite web|url=https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=36ps3yhuqME  |archive-url=https://ghostarchive.org/varchive/youtube/20211213/36ps3yhuqME| archive-date=2021-12-13 |url-status=live|title=Head Automatica - Beating Heart Baby (Live Rock AM Ring 07) |publisher=YouTube |date=December 9, 2007 |access-date=December 25, 2012}}{{cbignore}}</ref> August 2007 saw yet another change in the line up, with [[New York hardcore]] veteran [[Sammy Siegler]] taking over the drum kit.<ref>{{cite web|url=https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rdFfUrmOPXI  |archive-url=https://ghostarchive.org/varchive/youtube/20211213/rdFfUrmOPXI| archive-date=2021-12-13 |url-status=live|title=Head Automatica - K Horse (Live at Highline Ballroom) |publisher=YouTube |date=August 12, 2007 |access-date=December 25, 2012}}{{cbignore}}</ref>

=== ''Swan Damage'' and disbandment (2007–2012) ===
Head Automatica started pre-production on their third album in late September 2007, aiming for a "darker" sound and "grimy, dancefloor-friendly" songs.<ref>Alternative Press #234, January 2008, p. 95</ref> The band recorded half of the material with producer [[Jason Lader]] and the other with [[The Brothers (producers)|The Brothers]] (the production team of [[Josh Topolsky]] and Eric Emm).<ref>{{cite web|url=http://24.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_m4w909GRb01qbl0oho1_500.png |title=Head Automatica: Swan Damage (2008) |publisher=24.media.tumblr.com |access-date=December 25, 2012}}</ref> Sammy Siegler handled the drumming duties,<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.brooklynvegan.com/archives/2008/10/an_interview_w_4.html |title=an interview w/ Rival Schools (Walter & Sammy) (part 1) |publisher=Brooklynvegan.com |date=October 23, 2008 |access-date=December 25, 2012}}</ref> and Albert Wing, [[Bruce Fowler]] and Gary Grant recorded the brass section.<ref>{{cite web |url=http://instagram.com/p/KWZSO5qJGf/  |archive-url=https://ghostarchive.org/iarchive/s/instagram/KWZSO5qJGf |archive-date=2021-12-24 |url-access=limited|title=Photo by darylpalumbocc • Instagram |publisher=Instagram.com |access-date=December 25, 2012 }}{{cbignore}}{{dead link|date=September 2017 |bot=InternetArchiveBot |fix-attempted=yes }}</ref> The band appeared in a Christmas-themed skit on ''[[The Tonight Show with Jay Leno]]'' on December 18, 2008 and went on a short North American tour with [[Radio 4 (band)|Radio 4]] in January 2009.

In late 2009, Palumbo and Head Automatica parted ways with Warner Bros.
