Downtown Battle Mountain
Downtown Battle Mountain is the debut studio album by American post-hardcore band Dance Gavin Dance, released on May 15, 2007. It was produced by Kris Crummett, who mastered their EP Whatever I Say Is Royal Ocean. The songs "And I Told Them I Invented Times New Roman", "Lemon Meringue Tie" and "The Backwards Pumpkin Song" were released on February 22, 2007 on the band's MySpace, and "Open Your Eyes and Look North" was released on their PureVolume site.
