New Australian growlers with NZ roots, Batrider announce their local album debut with a double-sided single. Legs sets the trickle drip of one guitar against the skulking threat of another, while singer Sarah Chadwick mutters and threatens her way over the top. Pink Guitars takes a different route, with a humming, lo-fi rhythm section and a gentle pop melody that moves away from the art rock threat of their reputation. Both tracks are clever and beguiling, promising big small things for this unique indie outfit.
