Into Battle with the Art of Noise is a 1983 EP by the Art of Noise—its first release, and also the first release by ZTT Records. The record represented the first installment in ZTT's Incidental Series (catalogue number ZTIS 100).
Into Battle constructed tracks using early sampling techniques centred on the Fairlight CMI workstation, which at the time was state-of-the-art technology. Two songs from the EP, "Beat Box" and "Moments in Love", were subsequently featured on the group's first LP, Who's Afraid of the Art of Noise?, in altered form.
