BATTLES: Atlas

Can anyone categorize the sound of Battles? Is it prog rock, electro rock, glam rock, alt rock or psychedelica? I've got no idea, but this first video from their latest long player Mirrors is a rollicking thumper with weird vocal overlays and serious T. Rex percussion. The video is a beauty: glass boxed, dynamic angles and vivid rich colour saturations directed by photographer Timothy Saccenti. Cheers to tipster Jesse M. Watch the music video (qt).

THE ENRIGHT HOUSE: Solitaire

Remember those trippy videos cliptip adored from Vancouver moody electronic artist Circlesquare? Well, we've recently discovered a new prog rock, electronic group from Christchurch, New Zealand with a similar atmospheric pulse. All you arty indie kids get ready for something you'll want to file besides your collection of Sigur Ros CD's, Mogwai vinyl and M83 EPs. The video is directed by fellow New Zealander Ed Lust. Cheers to Mark and the band for hooking us up. Watch the music video (qt) or youtubed.
