Mirrored-era Battles were a force to be reckoned with. Ridiculous songwriting, a powerful stage aura, and a fucking sublime technical talent when it came to live performance. This line-up is one of the best bands of the 21st century.

The production on the studio version is much better, for obvious reasons, this was for cable television, and obviously they didn't have all the same equipment; tyondai probably used an actual modulator on his vocals in the studio instead of a whammy pedal. Again, obvious, this is live. All that said, this is still one of the greatest live musical performances of all time. The amount of focus and attention to detail required to make these discordant sounds come together to make a slapper of a jam song in a live setting is astounding! Whenever I need to give an example of exemplary teamwork, I show this video.

I think it’s possibly the most complicated song I’ve ever heard, played live. You need to take into account that it took Radiohead 18 months practice to be able to Paranoid Android live………..and this is probably 5x as difficult. The bizarre timings, the loops, the fact that the beat doesn’t change for the entire song. Then take into account 2 of the musicians are playing 2 instruments, at the same time, for almost the entire song…….
