"Auto Rock" is a song by Scottish post-rock band Mogwai that appears as the first track on their album Mr. Beast.
The song is built around a piano riff (with only the use of black keys) played by Barry Burns, and march-like drums, which slowly builds in volume and intensity. It was, at one point, used as a set opener on the Mr Beast tour, as well as most of the 2009 tour.
