Battles

[Sir Edward V]

I just saw their video on MTV-U (university station, it shows only music videos, go figure!) yesterday, these guys intrigue me. They are doing cool things like using whammy type effects on voices and make other weird noises and using it to make good sounding music.

Check them out: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IpGp-...elated&search=

I think I'm going to buy their CD

[D.A.R.K.]

members of don caballero(guitar) and helmet(drums)
to name a few members...absolutely sick, fun stuff!
not to be missed live...

[Nasnederis]

Excelent record.

[sensible68]

innovative stuff. the ep's are very good, as is mirrored.

[Sir Edward V]

glad to see everyone agrees with me!

[sensible68]

sir edward, prithee check out Add N to (X) - not dissimilar, all albums are good, I'd recommend 'Loud Like Nature'. I think you'd dig 'em

Synth bass though but they're the only band which can regularly cause my hifi amp to overheat & cut out.

[skaliwag66]

I keep missing this band when they're in town.

[thebassist1234]

Awesome band.

[bro)))616]

when i first heard it it annoyed the c**p out of me..
..but now (4 min later) im really diggin it

[Barkless Dog]

just got turned on to them.

very fresh, great prog band- a bit Krautrock, A bit of Yes, Gentle Giant

[heavyfunkmachin]

i like the autobahn/krautrockish influence, but get tired of the wammy voice after a while (they use it in most of the songs!!!)
