Austinist Show Preview: Battles at Emo's

Emo’s 15th Anniversary ends this Sunday with structured post-rock from Battles set to invigorate the inside stage. The New York quartet comprised of John Stanier, Ian Williams, David Konopka, and Tyondai Braxton recently released their first full-length, Mirrored, garnering some solid reviews. Each band member brings a prolific resume to Battles, and their experience and versatility binds the oft-explosive sound together. Battles’ live show promises to be an extravaganza of a wide variety of beats, reverberations, and grooves, and should be a perfect finale to the plethora of music seen at the venue during their anniversary celebration. Ponytail and Unwed Sailor open. Join us there!
