BATTLES (i'm an architect and here's my prison)

The diamond that was stolen held the code that melted water into letters spelling where it had been taken to. In fact, I had a vision of the numbers corresponding with the letter T-H-E-D-I-A-M-O-N-D

"I think it would be next to impossible to be less than amazed by the musical qualities exhibted by BATTLES. Their music is legendary when you listen to it and differs from the lyrics when you read it. Very few artists can claim such talent and BATTLES definitely falls into the category. The lyrics seem quite metaphorical and deep, and seem to signal a struggle or fight within an individual leaning opposite of the optimism. Whatever the meaning, the lyrics show a complicated thought process that cohesively builds the lyrics and vocals as Mike Patton does with Fantomas using less the vocal as a mainstream instrument, by as staccatos and tones that are musically cohesive with the rhythms of the other instruments in the song." 

This whole band highlights creativity in general. Promising band for the future, and the best thing about this band is that every song on Mirrored challenges the last one.

Wagon Christ

Such a clever name right, I thought so to. Wagon Christ is another creative venture of Luke Francis Vibert. You may have heard some of his music on compilations and or with his other projects; Plug, Ace of Clubs, Butler Kiey, Amen Andrews, and Kerrier District. He's a British recording artist and producer known for his work in the many subgeneres of electronica. Vibert originally became involved in electronic music through his interest for hip-hop as well as the environment of bedroom experimentalism associated with the swelling late-'80s U.K. dance scene. He's put out five albums under the alias Wagon Christ and 16 albums all together and many EPs. He's collaborated live with Aphex Twin and Aphex Twin used the song name 'Analord' from Vibert's album Lover's Acid.  Luke Vibert is alongside Aphex Twin, Squarepusher, µ-Ziq, and Cylob as redefining the rules of electronic music in the UK in the early to mid '90s. My roommate likes this song because he can break dance to it. Enjoy the song 'My Organ in Your Face' on Volume 6.
