RELEASE NOTES
No matter how much Crystal Castles insist they're
named after She-Ra's fortress and not the 1983
arcade favorite, thanks to the Atari sound chips
in their keyboards, their music evokes vintage
video game soundtracks -- albeit ones that have
been folded, spindled, and mutilated almost past
recognition. On their self-titled debut, Crystal
Castles (aka Ethan Kath and Alice Glass) hurl
eight-bit bleeps, bloops, and noise as
relentlessly as Space Invaders marching down a
screen, turning these sounds into sometimes
chaotic, sometimes moody synth pop with a jagged
edge. Though their low-res synths can't help but
sound nostalgic (and song titles like "Air War"
and "Reckless" sound like forgotten games),
Crystal Castles are fresher, more complex, and
much less gimmicky than might be expected,
especially for those familiar with only the
band's singles. Granted, those singles are still
some of Crystal Castles' definitive tracks: the
darkly, violently catchy "Alice Practice" pits
Glass' serrated but melodic shout-singing against
rippling, strafing, and strobing synth
onslaughts, and "Crimewave" gives that sound a
brooding groove. However, Crystal Castles go
wider and deeper on the rest of the album,
teetering between order and chaos, noise and
melody, and energy and atmosphere in ways that
are unpredictable but consistently interesting.
Glass is a chameleon, terrifying on one track and
kittenish on another. She's a black-eyed,
short-circuiting android on "Xxzxcuzx Me,"
singing of "robotic love" as her voice degrades
into pixels almost as soon as she opens her
mouth, and a spaced-out valley girl bopping to
"Good Time"'s deceptively cheery pulse. Indeed, a
remarkable amount of melancholy haunts Crystal
Castles, from the eerie keening on the Knife-like
opening track, "Untrust Us," to the danceable
gloom of "Vanished" and the wistful, almost
serene "Magic Spells" -- all of which throw
freakouts like the claustrophobic electro bump
'n' grind "Love and Caring" into even brasher
contrast. By the time Crystal Castles wind down
with "Tell Me What to Swallow"'s ethereal cooing
and guitars, it's clear that Kath and Glass are
already looking for more ways to expand on this
familiar-sounding, edgy, innocent, menacing,
bold, nuanced, and altogether striking debut.

“世界上能动能静并且最激动人心的乐队”当下非CYRSTAL CASTLES 莫属了。这支来自加拿大多伦多的电子乐队为一男一女两人阵容，ETHAN KATH 和 ALICE GLASS，做的是如今最时髦的8 BIT THRASH，他们的音乐被认为是非常具有创新意识的。CRYSTAL CASTLES 能象现在这样有超高人气不仅仅是因为乐队自身的才华和团员自身的努力，同样也因ENTHAN KATH 之前将BLOC PARTY 等众多著名大派乐队的歌曲做了出色的混音版本。
Crystal Castles成立于2003年，可谓是迅速崛起。在过去的两年里面他们成功的在美国，澳洲以及欧洲各地举办了无数演出。后来在各大杂志网站的访谈中CC 说到其实他们刚开始的时候并没有心去做一个乐队，他们只是按照自己的兴趣喜好去把各种声音混合起来。第一张单曲 “ALICE PRACTICE”的制作发行完全也只是一个巧合，ALICE 当时是在为一个话筒做SOUND TEST。直到后来把这首歌放到MYSPACE上以后他们才意识到自己当时自己的这个无意行为如今对广大乐迷多么具有威慑力了。后来便有许多家唱片公司陆续找上门。
到今天为止，CC在西方国家的火暴程度无人能比。他们在MYSPACE上的网页已经有将近2800000的访问率。他们现在已经开始不知道第几伦的美国巡演了。我本人在去年9月看过CC 与 METRIC的共同专场，没有见过比CC更出色的乐队，哪怕是如今已经成为摇滚明星的METRIC，在与其相比之下也显逊色。
