Automotion have announced new EP ‘Ecstatic Oscillations’ – listen to first single ‘Dithyramb’ below.The London-four piece, which features Liam Gallagher’s son, released their debut EP ‘In Motion’ in June, which followed singles ‘Mind And Motion’, ‘View From The Precipice’ and ‘Flight Of The Screaming Baboon’.‘Dithyramb’ is the first taste of the band’s new music, arriving with an accompanying visual. The track grew into its current form during recording sessions with producer Andy Savours and reflects “the battle between the will to innovate and having influences”.The title is a reference to the Ancient Greek hymn of the same name, sung in celebration of Dionysus, with lyricist Jesse Hitchman delivering “a parody of the madman in the market, a comical rendition of a Nietzsche-esc character on a rant of wild nights of intoxicated frenzy and inept sociability”.‘Ecstatic Oscillations’ is set for release on September 23.The group comprises Lennon’s school friend Jesse Hitchman alongside drummer Otis Eatwell-Hurst and bassist Luke Chin-Joseph.With half of the band currently studying Fine Art, they have said in the past that their influences include Marcel Duchamp, John Cage, Neu! and Robert Fripp.In NME‘s Big Read interview with Liam Gallagher, he spoke about Lennon’s music: “It’s fucking mental – I don’t know about ‘experimental’.
That’s a fucking word for it. Gene was telling me there’s some scene like mathematic rock or summat.
I was like, ‘This is giving me a headache already and I haven’t even heard any of it’.”He added: “I don’t get involved – they like what I do to a certain extent, but they’re fucking somewhere else. They wouldn’t listen to me, man, but they’re doing their own thing.

Liam Gallagher has apologised “on behalf of [his] family” after his brother Noel was criticised over comments he made about disabled festivalgoers.Following his recent set on the Pyramid Stage at Glastonbury, the High Flying Birds frontman stayed at Worthy Farm to see various gigs, including Jamie T‘s headline slot on the John Peel Stage.Noel later explained during an episode of The Matt Morgan Podcast that he and his friends ended up watching T’s performance from the tent’s disabled platform.“[We] couldn’t get to the bit on stage because we were fucking wasted,” he said. Noel subsequently showed his artist pass and “walked on to this platform – unbeknownst to us it was the disabled platform”.“I said, ‘See that pass, mate? It gets me any-fucking-where,” he continued, going on to joke that he would’ve tipped a disabled fan out of their wheelchair for his son to get a better view, and have touched disabled fans on the forehead, telling them: “Rise, you can walk.”Noel added: “I gotta say, those disabled cats have a great view of everything.”Following the comments, disability equality charity Scope hit out at Gallagher on Twitter: “Reports of Noel Gallagher’s behaviour at Glastonbury were upsetting enough.
