Batteries is the self-titled debut solo album by Steven Clark (professionally known as Sci-Fi Steven) from Glasgow's Punk/Disco legends. An exercise in short, sharp new-wave snappiness, Steven has ramped up the guitars and latent aggression to create a new sound. Nagging melodies abound with some darker twists and a cynical sense of positivity informs the lyrics. There's plenty of pop hooks for the bis faithful, but Batteries is an angrier beast. Contains anthem lead track Batteries Batteries, Flashbacks, Human Requirements, Suicide Everything, Rumour Vs. Lie, Wah! Kinder, Stuck in the Arteries, Cannibals, Straight to Video, London, Anorexia Poster Girls, Destroy My Machines
