The New York-based quartet will be performing cuts from their debut full-length, the highly acclaimed Mirrored, at Tower Records in Shibuya at 7:30 p.m.

A friend who speaks much better Japanese than I called the store yesterday to ask about admission and was told that the performance was free for anyone who purchases a Battles CD from Tower Records in Shibuya, Shinjuku, or Yokohama. Passes are being issued now. A pass for the show can also apparently be obtained by buying a concert ticket for Battles' Tokyo show at the end of September or a Battles t-shirt. Both must be purchased at Tower Records. Full info (in Japanese) can be found here.
