April 20 2011 - Battles wowed fans as they performed a special gig at the Institute of Contemporary Arts (ICA) in London.

The gig marked the US band’s first performance in the UK since Tyondai Braxton quit the group last summer to work on his own projects.

Battles played songs from their back-catalogue, as well as debut tracks from their forthcoming second album proper, ‘Gloss Drop’, which is due out on June 6. It includes a collaboration with Gary Numan.

Battles will return to the UK for several dates around the album’s release. For more details, check out Gigwise Gig Tickets.
