Biography
Batoche formed in 2002 and have spent the past five years as a 100% DIY band. After independently releasing three records (2 under a different name), repeatedly touring across the country, surviving a name change, a near death experience and dedicating their every waking moment to music, they released their latest LP Terra Incognita. This album was recorded at the Hive Creative Labs by Jesse Gander in 2007, and while maintaining their hardcore and metal roots has a character all its own. Each song brings new elements of chaos, atmosphere, flow and power. Lyrically they tackle global issues while focusing on history and politics from a distinctly Canadian perspective, encouraging listeners to search for solutions and explore these issues instead of simply relying on condemnation and knee-jerk reaction.
