3.0 out of 5 stars BE CAREFUL!, October 28, 2004
This review is from: Tras (Audio CD)
I completely loved EP C. Made me want more BATTLES. HOWEVER, This was NOT quite the ep I was hoping for. The opening track 'Tras' is actually perfect (i love handclaps!)... but the second track, which at over 9minutes i thought would have lots of potential...not so much. Kind of drones on. Not much guitar-work. Would be great if it was part of a larger album maybe. Lets just say that since EP C and this one cost me the same amount....much more bang for the buck going with another album of theirs. Havent' seen the video yet though...maybe that'll take it up to 4stars???

This review is from: Tras (Audio CD)
Battles know what they're doing. They didn't come into this deal with that adolescent inexperience and uncertainty of what direction to take. Their former musical projects already have them at the top of their game, and their sound was patented to a tee from the very first recording. I put off buying this EP for awhile; I was wary of 'Fantasy' because of their other underwhelming electronic blip-and-bleat tracks such as 'Uw' and 'Bttls'. As it turns out, the track isn't half-bad, especially on headphones. Also, 'Tras' is probably Battles' most accessible track, with a rock propulsion that makes it instantly palatable. Not a bad buy at all, especially if you already have the other EPs. I can't wait for future releases. Oh wait, I forgot about the 'Tras' video. I was disappointed, because I was expecting a live performance, but instead I got this white-washed recording that reminded me of a Macintosh commercial.

2.0 out of 5 stars Not worth it, March 2, 2007
This review is from: Tras (Audio CD)
2 1/2

Terrible gamble for anyone except the biggest fans simply due to the horrible consistency of getting only one track that resembles the exciting qualities inherent with the groups way better work, and another long track that plays like a lazy beat-fest session of uninspired undertaking. Strictly for those familiar and engaged with everything else Battles have put out
