What we say about Mirrored, by Battles

Rating: happy This record left our Mingus feeling happy.

Battles: "Mirrored" debut long player for Warp is finally out. A fine live proposition, recorded, their sound is only slightly more contained. The dynamic is a play-off between the pulverising polyrhythmic percussion and the melodic interplay of the munchkin vocals, keyboards, guitars & effects. At times seeming to contain elements and influences from Progressive rock, Jazz-fusion and Ethno (say African Hi life or Brazilian batacuda, the diversity of their experimentation seems to know no bounds. Ok, the vocals may sometimes grate but overall their sound is grounded in a kind of heavy, funky grind. Ant sums it up best, describing their sound as an articulation of a heavy rock band recreating the sounds of the best left-field electronica.
