Autozamm is a New Zealand rock band from Auckland City, that has supported international acts such as the Black Crowes, INXS and Silverchair. The band has appeared at events such as the Big Day Out, Homegrown and Southern Amp.
In 2010, amateur music blogger Simon Sweetman hit out at Autozamm in a blog post on NZ On Air music funding, describing the group "terrible" and saying "they certainly do little to reflect any distinctly New Zealand culture." In response to this, Autozamm released the single "The Review" in 2012, which hit out at Sweetman and other critics.
