   About BETH IN BATTLE MODE
Purchase the new album "Hot Science" (as well as the debut) from our online store:



"The first song, "I Want You (Outta Here)", on Beth In Battle Mode's second album, Hot Science, is catchy enough to make you want to hear more. The album continues with that same ‘80s sound, laced with drumbeats and keyboards – all the things you need to make you want to dance the night away...the thing that stands out most about this Toronto band, however, is singer Edward Maher's voice. The music is reminiscent of that decade, but instead of feeling like the entire band is straight from the past, Maher's voice keeps it present, setting the new indie sound on a retrospect path. I must say, it makes this album pretty interesting." - SoundProof Magazine

"Beth in Battle Mode are crafting original, angular ditties that carry a hint of big-budget predecessors like The Cars as well as smaller-budget types like Television and over-budget artists from Daft Punk to Devo. All very '80s in a sense. But too clever to be dismissed as simply 'retro'... Their likeable CD, Technical Know-How, is chock-full of all manner of melodic musings, delivered with style and humour (the latter manifested in cheeky song titles like Rembrandt Q Einstein and Everyone is in a Band). And the band defines itself as the very latest thing in pop music -- the 'garage-prog-disco power trio.'" - Ottawa Sun

"If you want a band who'll make you dance without making you feel like you're watching some obnoxious hipsters doing a bad Gang of Four impersonation, Beth In Battle Mode are exactly the band for you...The keyboards are bouncy, the guitar riffs are catchy and the drums are propulsive, and it all adds up to make Beth in Battle Mode's debut one amazingly good time." - iheartmusic.net

They sound as large as the latest indie supergroup, but they’re a lean three-man operation. They inspire dancing as much as any laptop duo, but with an energetic live show. They rock loud and raw, but with one guitar, drums and keyboards. They’ve inspired comparisons ranging from The Black Keys to Loverboy and back again, but isn’t it enough to say Beth In Battle Mode are infectious, unpretentious and just plain fun?

That was a great set at The Silver Dollar. Pulling off keyboard-fueled 60’s garage-rock with quirky 80’s pop, the word ‘retro’ seems to be synonymous with the band. But if anything, this is a group that services your rock and roll impulses, a high-energy performance that merges signature organ-licks, happy-happy-hooks, with razor-sharp guitars. Potentially, this trio might make you dance until the morning sun. Rock and roll doesn’t get any better.

Great CD review in this issue of Eye Magazine 'Each song combines vocalist Edward Maher's insistent yelp with speedy high-hats, droning keyboards and garage-rock guitars, creating a paint-by-numbers exercise in both genre and attitude'
