After four years out, Battle Born is a return to form.

More than a nostalgia trip.

A step in a new direction.

Yes, it’s twenty years since the heyday of grunge, but the old boys have done an admirable job of maintaining that genre’s legacy.

Jiaolong isn’t necessarily the finest of Snaith’s work, though it’s a faithful reproduction of his DJing style for those yet to see him in that environment.
