The Battle Royale write fast and furious pop songs that make you
move. But they also don't. That's right, Wake Up, Thunderbabe is
not only a killer dance album, but it is also a simple and sweet
acoustic pop album. In classic Side A/Side B style, Thunderbabe is
one part dance, one part folk. Side A is reminiscent of modern
dance-pop bands like The Faint, Hot Chip and CSS, and Side B is
purely folk that references the likes of Tilly and the Wall,
Arcade Fire and Page France.
After garnering an impressive grass-roots following nationwide
with the release of their first full-length album, Sparkledust
Fantasy (Afternoon Records), the sing-along dance-pop anthems and
catchy say-what riffs of the Battle Royale continue to only get
better with Wake Up, Thunderbabe. This sophomore effort evolved
out of a year of touring, growing up, and going to college, not to
mention sharing the stage with such great bands as the Blood
Brothers, Celebration and Tilly and the Wall.
Wake Up, Thunderbabe is infectious, fun and energetic, so bring
your best Charlie Brown dance to the party and enjoy.
