Automatism's fourth release "Into the Sea" was recorded at Svartsjölandet Studio and released via Tonzonen Records in autumn 2019. The modest but gorgeous cover artwork done by drummer Jonas Yrlid  contains a shiny record with four tracks and a playtime of around 40 minutes. The A-Side starts off smoothly with jazzy tunes on 'Propeller Propulsion' which easily merges into second track 'Journey to Satchidananda' - a 13-minute...
