Auto Erotic by YARD

Returning to Auto Erotic I sought to review what the intention of the song was. Like Lawmaker it has been with YARD from early on in some form or another. This version feels like it has come to a conclusion both sonically and thematically. It matches what we have seen it induce live, building to a wash of sound to fully envelope an audience member. Thematically it engages with the vulnerable state of intimacy and how we can seek that space, even if in the past it has not turned out well. Sometimes it can be too much and a state of auto pilot kicks in like a safety mechanism. This constant back and forth between retreat and exploration when in that state is the core struggle of the theme.
