Aubin: After being denied by Bill Watterson last week, I make my triumphant return to the world of picking MySpace pages and telling you about them. This time, it’s the thoroughly peculiar Battles. The group includes former members of Don Caballero, Helmet and performs something that could be described as math rock or dance punk, but neither of those descriptions really does justice to the band’s wild fusion of sounds. You can check out the entire album on their MySpace page.

Chris: Yes, the band name is from the title of a Grade song. Moving on, Italy’s Stolen Bikes Ride Faster play a brand of melodic hardcore similar to their namesake, yet are hardly a carbon copy. Go check out the tracks “I Result Impatient” and “Eyesblinder” over at the group’s MySpace page.
