_________________________________________________________________________________________________
Hailing from fertile Vancouver, BC, The Battles return after a long, long five-year sojourn with Tomorrow's Eager Hands. The new songs deliver on the promise of their debut (2001's Lycanthropy). Stephen Wood's songwriting chops should appease fans of Ray Davies, Robert Pollard, Mayo Thompson and Robyn Hitchcock alike. Also of note are the band's ties to Destroyer, Loscil, Precious Fathers and Black Mountain.
