So Crystal Castles has released their self-titled album. It is something else. While they are an electronic duo mainly experimenting with 8-bit synth lines and drums, I like to think of their music as the “soundtrack to a computer turning on”, the computer being female. Anything can happen or come in when listening to their songs, so it seems. The hard drums create a beat (almost dance, some are) to carry you as synth-lines rise and fall to lead you to euphoria. Had to post about them as soon as I heard their album. Download them if you want to listen to something completely new!
