So I've listened to the new Battles album twice and am feeling pretty underwhelmed. Really don't have any standout tracks in my head. I'll try it again tomorrow, but am a bit disappointed as of right now.
I personally don't think it comes close to Gloss Drop. Flora>Fauna is my f*cking jam though. Really wish they would have fleshed out more than a minute and thirty seconds of that.

I love it. I think it's their best.
Better then Gloss Drop and Mirrored? You're crazy. It's a good album, not a great one. That said, still can't wait to see them live in a month!

I think without the vocals they have gotten stronger musically. I've been enjoying it.
Man, I miss the vocals. I'll listen to it again tomorrow with the knowledge that it is purely instrumental, but I don't think I'm going to like it like the first two. That being said, these songs would probably kill live.

I have to admit - Foals has conquered Destroyer for me from my vote last month. If I were voting today I would have to swap those two. The Foals album gets really good after a few listens.

I think the only thing I would swap from mine is Tobias Jesso Jr. for Kendrick Lamar. TPAB really grew on me.
Man, i had high hopes for that one. Windhand, Beirut, and Lana are the three leading the pack for me right now. But, I'm about to listen to The Libertines and I could definitely see that one being a personal fave
