Battles - Gloss Drop
Battles have been a favourite of mine since I first listened to their debut album “Mirrored” and now four years later they are releasing their second album titled “Gloss Drop”. While making the album they band lost Tyondai Braxton who quit the band to follow other pursuits and since he provided the “vocals” for the band they got some guests on the album. They feature Gary Numan, Yamantaka Eye, Blonde Redhead’s Kazu Makino, and Matias Aguayo, all the guests appear on one track each so don’t think they’ve gone over board including vocals on all tracks. The album will be released on June 7 on Warp. You can see the tracklisting below.
