Video: Battles drop “Futura” on Fallon

Without the vocals of Tyondai Braxton sitting atop their methodical melodies, Battles now have more room to develop “their “tiny musical eccentricities,” something which was fully on display during the trio’s appearance on Fallon last night. Performing “Futura” from their recently released sophomore LP Gloss Drop, Battles tantalized late night viewers (and ?uestlove) with drone-y guitars, outstanding keyboard arrangements, and, of course, the insane abilities of drummer John Stanier. In case you missed it, check out the video above (via The Audio Perv).
