Anybody not convinced by me banging on about Battles out there? Have a look at the video for the single. It suits the song amazingly well and shows the band doing what they do best – performing together. I bought my ticket for the Music Centre gig today. To say I’m looking forward to is a bit of an understatement. :)
Tune.
Prefuse 73 is supporting them on tour in April, if he made it over here…

First time hearing these guys and the vid is really cool. There’s a certain Marilyn Manson – Beautiful People feel to this song isn’t there?
and the vocals sound like the tongue twisters from bosco no?
Just a little bit, it’s been a while since I heard those tongue twisters :)
re: Donal’s comment – That’s exactly what I was thinking.. “The beautiful people, the beautiful people!” Not too keen on the pitched-up vocals..
yahoo! Am so definitely getting my ticket for Battles soon… yipee :)
I would go, but the doctor won’t let me. Great Stuff
what? the doctor said you can’t go…Battles are good for you … they make you strong… and build character… grrr Battles!! Go…it’s good for what ails ya!
That video is sweet. Have you heard anything else new so far Niall? I’ve heard nowt from Mirrored except Atlas so far. I hear there is a DJ Koze remix of Atlas knocking about though.
I haven’t been anticipating an album so much for a long time…

Mirrors is completely great. The whole record rocks, and was a massive surprise when I first heard it. Prob one of the best records of the year I’d say… Will see them in April in Berlin, and am also quite stoked!
