London psychedelic punk trio Hot Face has announced their debut album, Automated Response, set for release on January 23, 2026, via Speedy Wunderground. The raucous album was captured live in front of an audience in one take straight to tape at Abbey Road Studios—an invitation extended by producer Dan Carey after a chaotic midnight show. The lead single, “Pink Liquor,” provides a taste of the feverish live performance committed to tape, preserving the sweat, blemishes, and sonic mayhem of their punk sound.
