No, I've never wondered.
Music that a lot of people claim to really enjoy, certain fad bands such as this one, get everyone excited for a day or two.. and then they get forgotten about........... and then months later, if you feel the urge to dig out that antique recording again, maybe you'll say to yourself, "wow, they really were good afterall!" Unfortunately, I don't see myself ever listening to mirrored again, despite thinking it was pretty cool when it first came out. Honestly, why listen to this when I can listen to Snakefinger or something?
On the other hand, I am not going to rebel against Battles, because at least they ARE talented, if inconsistent. Most bands that people jerk off over have absolutely NOTHING going for them. I'm sick of innovative, talented, forward-thinking bands being overlooked to make more room for bands that do nothing but stay in a little box. Battles are in a very enviable place, and they could really do something revolutionary and amazing with it. But I'm pretty sure that they're just going to get worse and worse from here. It's a shame, because their drummer is king.
But yeah.. Don Cab.. we need to talk about them more.. they had alligator clips on their guitar strings. Great band.
