It was an eyebrow raising moment for all members of the band when exactly one week after release, on Friday the 28th of August 2020.. "Auto Reconnaissance" was sitting at number 8 in the official UK Rock album charts sandwiched incongrously between Nirvana and Led Zep. Although the "success" was short lived and was "out with a bullet" the following week leaving Nirvana and Zep asking each other "Who the hell was that?", everyone at The Tangent was in great spirits after having accomplished something that they had never even considered might happen. A Fourth Gen Prog band in the top ten. It' doesn't happen every week.
