Battles - Gloss Drop - Rock - CD

GLOSS DROP is a bewitching, entrancing album that defies both categorization and easy analysis. Just as previous release MIRRORED was a massive leap on from the early EPs that first got them noticed, this is truly another seismic shift, propelling them once more into uncharted territory. It is a sheer sense of fun, unpredictability and inventiveness that sets Battles apart from every other contemporary group. Battles are still looking for far-off boundaries to study and then demolish, searching for new and exotic styles to mash together.
