1) Battle: formerly known as Morphic Fields and Killing Moon, Battle were together between 1999 and 2007. Bunking PE in South London to play guitar, Jason Bavanandan and Jamie Ellis were inspired in equal measure by The Beatles, Motown, Britpop, and Nirvana. In 2000, the pair left school for Kent University in search of a band, finding Pixies enthusiast, Tim Scudder and, later garage-head, Oliver Davies. After two years of committed practice and sporadic gigging in both the cathedral city and metropolitan London, the group remained unheralded. Leaving Canterbury, Morphic Fields retreated to a disused bank vault under Luton High Street, to continue their work as the Donnie Darko inspired Killing Moon. After a brace of well received gigs in Lewisham, the band secured new management and studio time, leading to the demo, "Tendency" and wider interest. They changed their name to Battle in an attempt to convey how they fought for their dreams. This ideal of struggle and aspiration pervades much of their work.
In 2005, Battle embarked upon a series of small tours, releasing the singles, "Isabelle/ Feel The Same" and "Demons/ Damascus" both of which sold out within days. Support slots with the likes of Bloc Party, The Rakes, and British Sea Power followed.
In February, 2006, relocating to Jacobs Studio, Surrey (where The Smiths recorded much of The Queen Is Dead), the band pushed themselves harder than ever before, under the watchful eye of Gareth Jones. In a ten-day heave of energy, as winter turned to spring, the band finally captured songs for the mini-album, "Back to Earth" as well as several earmarked for next years full length LP.
April saw Tendency hit the UK top 40, with newspaper The Sun calling Battle "the best thing there" after a good showing at the SxSW festival in Texas. In June a further single, "Children" was released. The promotional video filmed to accompany the track found Jason battling invisible, malevolent forces and was produced by Type2error, known for their work with Hope of the States and Bloc Party.
In July, Jacobs Studio was broken into. Copies of Battle's master tapes were among those stolen, with an album named Back to Earth issued on the gray market in plain black cases. This was reputedly originally intended to be the band's debut album. The album was never released, though several tracks were included on Back to Earth and its B-sides in October, with the band citing a wish to record new material.
In 2007 new single "The Longest Time" was released on July 2nd, in advance of their showing at the summer festival circuit. The majority of the new album was reputedly written in the six months preceding its recording. A new album, also titled Break the Banks, was released on September 3rd 2007. It contained 3 tracks from the 2006 sessions, 6 new songs and a re-recording of "Demons."
The band were forced to postpone gigs due to illness within the band on September 17th, and this was their last official communique with the world. Disappointing album sales, tension from within, and a lukewarm critical response meant that the band was simply no longer a viable proposition. The band broke up on October 3rd and a final single "Paper Street" was released in London limited to 5000 copies on October 23rd.
2) Battle was a Finnish black metal band before they changed their name to Ravening. They released one demo called War Messiah in 1998 which contained three songs entitled "War Messiah," "Inhuman Breed," and "Bloodhunger."
3) Battle:Also a Korean male band with dance beat genre.

Battle Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
They do some things that are sickening, in a way, in a way.
One of these days you will reappear, in those clothes that you threw away,
To fill a space that these vitamins can't replace, can't replace.
It's a drag, it's absurd, and I should be tired
But my life could be worse, I could be on fire.
Every time you disagree.
And if you marry me, we stay together, together forever.
Reside alone with me, no one need ever go and come and go.
Holidays never felt so long,
Been spending whole days wondering
If you've changed, changed your hair,
Bought a car, cooked a meal from scratch.
It's a drag, it's absurd, and I should be tired
But my life could be worse, I could be on fire.
Stop, before you tell me to apologise
Every time I disagree.
Stop, listen up, I'm not on fire.
Stop, before you tell me to apologise.
Stop, every time that I disagree
The song "Stop" by the band Battles is a reflection on the mundane and repetitive nature of life. The singer wakes up in the same old space as always, but they are now surrounded by a younger generation whose actions are inexplicable and sometimes sickening. The singer's mind wanders to a past lover who may one day reappear in their life, but even this thought is colored with a sense of futility - the clothes this person used to wear are now gone, and no amount of vitamins can fill the void they left behind.
The overall tone of the song is one of dissatisfaction, but the singer is also aware that things could be worse. The repetition of the line "it's a drag, it's absurd, and I should be tired" reinforces the sense of ennui, while the repeated plea to "stop" suggests a desire for change or escape from this cycle.
The chorus of the song is perhaps the most interesting lyrically, as it plays with the idea of disagreement and apologizing. The singer demands that the listener "stop" before asking them to apologize, suggesting that maybe they are weary of having to constantly justify their viewpoints. The line "every time you disagree/And if you marry me, we stay together, together forever" could be read as a sarcastic dig at the idea of compromise in relationships - even if you do get married, there will still be disagreements.
Overall, "Stop" is a song that captures the feeling of being stuck in a rut and longing for something more. The imagery of vitamins, discarded clothes, and holidays that never seem to end all contribute to a sense of frustration and disillusionment.

Amazing that you have so many 'Civilian' and Street Level figures! I'm a 27 year collector and I am always looking for, and needing Street Level villains! I have maybe 8 Civilian figures and I have fudged that down to 2; Joyce and Dawn Summers! Lana Lang as the Cheerleader, Gwen Stacy and MJ as SHIELD Technicians, Stan Lee as Civilian Director of SHIELD Stan Lee, Peter Parker as Paul Striker SHIELD scientist etc. I even resort to Star Wars Black and Wrestlers as minions! I am currently ordering more Hood and Loki figures to head swap and Army Build. Also Army Building more Black Widows and 4 Shang Chi's Sisters, and last night did a head swap to make Agent Melinda May from my 3rd Maria Hill body and Asian head. Pretty much everyone I have fights in some way;
Commissioner Gordon, fights
Jimmy Olsen, fights
Willow and Tara, Powerful Wicca
4 Charmed sisters, Powerful Wicca
Autolycus, king of Thieves, fighter
Xander Harris, not any good but fights
John Wick, Yeah, he kicks butt
So, yeah, I can use practically anyone. LOL
