New Battles song - listen

Ian Williams

Experimental rock New Yorkers Battles have a song out, 'Titanium 2 Step' (listen below), with a new album 'Juice B Crypts', their fourth, coming out October 18. Warp describes the album as “a sensory overload of information” filled with “synthesizer loops, cut-throat drum patterns, and cyclical riffs”, as Fact Magazine reports. It’s the first Battles LP since the departure of bassist Dave Konopka earlier this year, and features old members, guitarist Ian Williams and drummer John Stanier alongside guests Xenia Rubinos, Tune-Yards, Shabazz Palaces and Liquid Liquid’s Sal Principato.
