Battles
New video for ‘My Machines’ (feat Gary Numan)

My Machines is taken from the acclaimed new Battles album ‘Gloss Drop’, out now.

“Gloss Drop’ is as giddy as a first flush of testosterone.” – NME
“One of the most startling, visually emotive albums we have heard in years.” – 9/10 Clash
“…so wildly, wonderfully strange that it defies classification altogether. Each track is joyous, upbeat and pop-tinged.” – 4/5 The Fly
“The sound of three brains pulsating in absolute union, a master class in rhythm and texture.” – 9/10 Loud + Quiet

This My Machines video is a collaboration between Battles, Warp Records and The Creators Project’s The Studio, which produces and distributes works from artists representing a cross-section of creative disciplines.

There will be documentaries about Battles, Daniels, and the creation of this video coming soon at the site.

Battles are touring North America, UK and Europe soon:
