gloss drop ist ein faszinierendes, hypnotisches album, das sich jeder kategorisierung & schneller analyse entzieht. der battles-sound vereint so unterschiedliche richtungen wie hardcore, tonaler minimalismus, neo-klassik, techno & post-rock. w�hrend dance-acts wie chemical brothers oder massive attack regelm�§ig gasts�nger einladen, sind battles der erste gro§e rock-act, der dies tut. ihre g�steliste ist beeindruckend: der pionier des dunklen synthie-pops gary numan im muskul�sen tribal-rhythmus, der chilenische techno-minimalist matias aguayo wird auf seine stimme reduziert, kult-indierockerin kazu makino (blonde redhead) mit z�ndendem dance-punk & yamantaka eye, messianischer dreadlocks-frontmann der japan-radikalkombo boredoms, bet�tigt sich als interstellarischer mc im schamanen-chant. es sind diese �bersch�umenden und unerwarteten momente, die battles von allen anderen zeitgen�ssischen bands unterscheiden
