[ANLCRMPI3GNGBNG]

[RaolDuke]

@TheseYeahThese You poor fool.

[moralreef]

@TheseYeahThese too bad all the guys in the bands you like aren't little dicks like you and most likely appreciate battles

[andrewtucker94]

3.05...anyone getting...'LSD-at-a-fairground­' vibes?



[sizone]

I used to do Band of Susans, Polvo and Trumans Water. Now I do Battles.

[Brollyhero93TOP10]

Is it wrong that I started to get tears in my eyes, because this song is so beautiful and this band so amazing??? ;__;

[StitchMayhem]

@Brollyhero93TOP10 Not at all. Keep crying.

[rostikeke]

its fukkin cheaper than all the drugs, but the feeling is the SAME!!

[GuerillaGodzilla]

2:41 - 3:04 best part of the song. listen to that drumming!

[WtfDonttouchmethere]

FUCKING YELLOW!

[zedascouves78]

we will not hear battles songs like this again without Tyondai.....shame....

[MeehKrob]

talking about music is like dancing about architecture

[strapsred17]

this song sucks just as bad as atlas does, crappy music!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[Mister86Productions]

@strapsred17

Fuck off hater.

[maxgunn555]

@strapsred17 may sound harsh but i can tell you're probably stupid just because you dont like battles.

[lostfanvanjellies22]

9 people have a different taste in music to me, and I understand and respect that completely.

[sadiemellow]

@MisterDubelina HAHAHAHAHAHA!!!

[DrukeBoy]

@MisterDubelina Yeah youre so fucking right, my man!!

[Alex6544onPS3]

@MisterDubelina BOTH

[zZB3ASTLYZz]

this is the gayest music ever

[Kelavmeister]

@zZB3ASTLYZz bttls pride!

[PECCEP88]

No one here has ever heard good music. I could say that because NO ONE has mentioned how this has a bit of a taste to anything by Yes or ELP (Emerson, Lake and Palmer).

[TheSeventhBristolBoy]

I just finished listening to this. I think I exploded in my pants...

[TheSeventhBristolBoy]

I feel so trippy O.o if music could be classed as a type of drug, this would be grade A

[Flaghorn]

This music is what I might refer to as "impossible". Par Excellente. Bravo & encore for certain to sure.

[msdinorawr13]

when i hear this...i imagine some one all happy, climbing up a rainbow...then around 3:50 i imagine them getting into drugs and alcohol...then at 4:26 i imagine them stepping off the rainbow into a dark alley and at 5:39 start running....then when he starts to sing, i imagine her getting raped and killed....sorry for that image

[bourne2drum]

@msdinorawr13 that was was a good description. I could imagine the last part being in slow mo then, no other way it could happen really

[gaztwiz]

@msdinorawr13 Fantastic piece of expression mate! I like it!

[mamamez]

so creative!

[38Murphr]

This sounds like how falling in love feels

[Makins0]

7 people are just awful...

[filthsmoker]

I AM AMAZED

[birdpowers]

I used to do acid. Now I do Battles.

[HornyCareBear]

@birdpowers That has to be one of the greatest sentences I've ever read.

[hombreazu1]

@birdpowers You should do both.

[di3happy]

@birdpowers Why not acid and battles at the same time?

[yackyakills]

i dont know if this song produces the same in all people, but it made me cry, brings me some kind of melancoly

[slugboithaking]

@yackyakills what are you a pussy?.....

[PrincNaBijelomTovaru]

@slugboithaking haha, you jerk. :D

[slugboithaking]

@PrincNaBijelomTovaru I was just kidding actually :p

[schedreads]

in some parts this song makes me remember genesis or yes....

[aquamancj]

DEA love that animal collectives summertime clothes is in the suggestions? good on ya youtube

[skateNappreciate]

started alittle slow, couldn't really get into it at first but it got super sexy 3:00 and on

[nUspIk]

I want to peak on acid and ecstasy just as Tyondai's voice comes in, like the froth on a mighty ocean wave, to sweep me under in audio bliss.

[imposibru]

@nUspIk Well said.

[clarkshapedbox]

@nUspIk My thoughts exactly



[touravanhable]

wow, i thought they were wierd, but i really like them, its like a huge jam session, but just with a title, love it

[tomaSchlosser]

6:17 - Roger Waters ! ;)

[esoretal]

Started biting my fingertips at 0:49. It only got better from there.

[thekook33]

@esoretal please don't tell me u ate yr whole hand

[esoretal]

@thekook33 Right up to the elbow D:

[thekook33]

@esoretal that's how good they are// good thing u didn't eat yr whole face

[TrickNicks]

8 minutes 12 seconds of pure genius.

[pinekrew]

o my god. how incredible... ive never heard this before... and i have 2 more minutes to go!!!

[lmpk50]

righteous

[tSKiLove1]

Definite Yes influence - Fragile Close To The Edge era - Not bad. The vocals? eh

[mj12agent]

@tSKiLove1 I agree with you. There's also a song from their EP - Dance which in many fragments sounds like solo from Yes' track Big Generator (2:46-3:06).

[PECCEP88]

@tSKiLove1 Sorry, finally someone who mentioned Yes :P

[crago121]

damn, lock yourself in a room for two years recording an album and this is what you get

These guys are masterminds

[vulvatronic]

Sounds a little bit like Mats/Morgan band.

[vega3410]

Weird.  But like Dream Theater.

[freakonadish]

this music is insane, I never heard anything as progressive as Battles before

[juanlestat]

@ltorrellas @IvanMattaF checken esto! Enjoy!!! =)

[nathanwalker462]

It has changed me entirely.

[bob90d]

man i love that shit

[lostfanvanjellies22]

Battles - Double Rainbow



[Isosyth]

@lostfanvanjellies22 Double Rainbow all the way across my brain >.<

[kanashiibanana]

Once one time I heard this song I was amazed

[brotherkito]

This song makes me laugh so hard every time I hear it. Amazing!

[MrBrandonshanks]

This song made me like Battles a hell of a lot more

[Theseventhknight]

@PvtNewbie you can dance to atlas.

[hreth1]

My head just exploded!

[stubbafishin83639]

Thank you postmodernism, for destroying taste and sensibility.

[joejoemusicman]

@PvtNewbie

Because it was in Little Big Planet, and the level with the song leaves a strong impression.

[BDonElitist]

i discovered this song when i was high... i fucking love it!

[oisaacsf]

I never imagined to have a band like this on my top favorite bands, I mean is kinda hipster but is extremely cool, like the klaxons but 187654987654321 times cooler

[spaceshipable]

surely im not the only who noticed that the lyrics mirror the words? irronically from the album mirrored? That or VERY clever. j'adore ca

[PSNgregiskool]

It's liek they are driving a screw into my brian and putting soundwaves through it...

[ltkindermann]

Just noise I'm afraid

[ThePaperWin]

Learned to play this on drums. XD

[NeonFoxLetsPlays]

@ThePaperWin just as your name implies you are WIN my friend.

[acadencePreD]

I JUST EXPERIENCED SOMETHING I NEVER THOUGHT I COULD THANKS TO THIS SONG

[Shitloger]

This group does not even deserve to exist ... ITS SHIT MUSIC !!!!

[Animator135]

@Shitloger Ironic that you call something experimental sh*t, especially considering your name has the word in it.

[makArtscorner]

@Shitloger HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAAHAHAHAH­AHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

[wlang11]

ramming a pencil in my ear would feel better than having to listen to that again. eargasm, you must be having some bad sex

[brightsidegrl]

@wlang11 hey if u dont like it dont listen to it, but don't intrude upon others opinions, i think its awesome!

[shodero]

once

one time

i was amazed...

[RadiclEdward]

I vote we replace the Avril Lavine song from Alice in Wonderland with this. It is a great song, and has the right feel for the movie. Don't the honks remind you of the tweedle brothers?

[UKNOWIT88]

@RadiclEdward I was just thinking about how this song could fit with some of the visuals from that movie before I read your comment. So weird! :D

[henrybradshaw]

Nope....

[ultramegareallysuper]

2:09 - 211, 412, 1234. the rest is 4/4 time. Its called experimental, not math rock

[Noodleboy111]

The time signature is in 4/4 for four measures and then one measure of 3/4. Nearly a minute in it changes to pattern of the same scheme but twice as fast. After that it gets a little chaotic but mostly keeps to that pattern plus or minus a measure when it switches to different phrases.

[mrkillerfun]

@Noodleboy111 Makes math rock what it is

[butterflykiller6]

this song make me happy :D

[juiaob]

This song smells like acid.

[DesolationRow0]

totally dude... totally... when i listen to this on weed i feel like a kid.

[robertthehobo]

once one time I was amazed that someone would say once one time I was amazed. huh.

[Gana0]

What time signature is this in?

[juiaob]

@Gana0 well it surely changes a lot. Just keep this in mind: each time you feel like bouncing your head, it's 4/4.

[mrkillerfun]

For songs like this, i just like to say there is no time signature, you must listen for what it SHOULD be ^_^

[Auntkekebaby]

This is one of my favs from Battles.

[drumsofthunder32]

this song sparked my over the top obsession with music

[judas21]

Is 3:04 the most amazingly happy music ever?

[Kapr1Sun]

Close, but so far.

Buckethead - For Mom is.

[alpur214]

@judas21 I cannot stop listening to that part. Makes me feel good.

[alpur214]

@judas21 I cannot stop listening to that part. Makes me feel good.

[Sammyjameshardin]

I have Tonal Optical Synesthesia, so this song is great fun ;P

[snaketriex]

ok, im curious, what does that mean?

[siamsato]

im jealous!

[juiaob]

@Sammyjameshardin Hahah great comment.

[wombat989]

MATH ROCK FTW!

[wahhappened]

this song would be HARD on rockband

[Gordaton]

It would be an awesome song to have on Rock Band though.

[wahhappened]

why can't i find a live version of this !

[jdanielglover]

One of my favorite songs from Battles

[ofarevolution441]

5:28 = pure eargasm.

[YumeDemon]

Squid, he is here

[ggaeta91]

I have to ask because this is like the fifth time I've read your comment, what the hell does that mean?

[YumeDemon]

lol right it was like a personal joke but i might as well explain

u get high and listen to this song and u will hear sounds an noises and feel a presence u then look out ur window and u shud either see a squid or octopus

both are evil and make u do things u dont want to do but the squid less so than the octopus

[hellisforkids]

Wow... wtf,

I think I'm going to try that now. xP

[PsychoticBambi]

Cccrrrrrraaaaazy

[Ricobbq]

I like this!

[MassKillJoy]

an amazing song by an amazing band this sound is so unique.
