New Battles video inside! - Page 2

atsonicpark · 06.12.2007, 02:37 AM

i didn't care for the vocals then, i'm not a big fan now. they just seem silly and gimmicky and ridiculous. they're not BAD, they're just.. i can't explain it. it seems like they said, "let's do vocals. but let's make em WEIRD!" instead of "let's do vocals that sound good over the music we're playing." you know? props to them for doing it, but now we have to hear every magazine/website in the world go "BATTLES INVENTED THE PITCHSHIFTER!!!!" and "IT SOUNDS LIKE MERRY LITTLE ELVES PLAYING PROG MATH ROCK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!" but anyway, yeah, battles rock, they are just so ridiculously talented and listenable.

It just occurred to me that Atlas is Salta backwards.
Salta = italian for "jump".

Good mood mode on.

gmku · 10.19.2007, 07:26 PM

PAULYBEE2656 · 10.20.2007, 03:28 AM

mirrored currently vying for my album of the year........ its joint #1 with 2 others......

nomadicfollower · 10.20.2007, 10:56 AM

Animal Collective - Strawberry Jam
Battles - Mirrored
Best albums of the year. Do I see a trend?
(unfairly discounting EIG - Shellac)

Cardinal Rob · 10.20.2007, 05:29 PM

I saw them live on Wednesday. Really really absorbing. My dyspraxic attention was on them 100%.

fugazifan · 10.21.2007, 12:45 AM

The Liars one is very good too, and the new Black Dice is gonna pwn. The three first songs especially are really impressive

davenotdead · 10.21.2007, 01:53 AM

i think my top 5 is pretty set...

panda bear
animal collective
battles
dirty projectors
black dice
....love all 5 of these albums...

SYRFox · 10.21.2007, 05:41 AM

Battles should release TWO albums a YEAR. It's vital

nicfit · 10.27.2007, 04:32 PM

holy sh*t

atari 2600 · 10.27.2007, 07:23 PM

Oh, I bet it's glorious, thanks, nicfit(test).

Will someone snoop the url of the .swf link? I hope it's an .flv link actually. At any rate, I'm trying to avoid installing Acive X.
