Battles release their debut album after three EP’s, and it’s one of the most unique records of the year. Battles have created such a unique take on Math Rock, with hard-hitting drums, chipmunkish vocals, and guitar and electronic arrangements where you’re never sure which instrument is actually making the sound because they’re all connected together by so many wires. With this record, Battles are able to channel the unique energy and sound of their live show into a cohesive record, a feat not only impressive technically, but musically as well.
