Juliett Simms wants you to know she’s damaged. Her band, Automatic Loveletter, just released a five-song EP full of loss, regret, pain, and feelings of inadequacy, and now stands poised to capture the imaginations of sensitive, misunderstood 15-year-olds the world over. Automatic Loveletter seems almost purpose-built for this demographic, tapping the emotional veins of immaturity in a manner that manages sincerity and shuns caricature.
Combining a knack for cathartic songwriting with the sensitive-boys’-sex-object appeal of the darkly attractive Simms, Automatic Loveletter is the answer to all of those cute-boy-fronted emo and pop-punk bands. You know, all of those pierced and tatted guys singing break-up songs to swooning crowds of teenage girls. Well, that’s sure to be in the cards for Automatic Loveletter, only with the addition of pierced and tatted guys secretly swooning in the back while trying to look cool for the girlfriends they are in constant fear of losing.
