She-Ra's Home!
Crystal Castles are famous for their wall to wall horizontal human stacks packed gigs, promotion-less acclaim to fame & blink of an eye fast fansbase building. Ever since the 1 boy 1 girl band launchd their myspace account the cluster of indie fans & blog owners initiated a greedy melodia hunt to quinch their thirst for their majestic 8-bit products, even if it meant unfinished demos or low quality MySpace stream rips. With a 12" as an official release & a demo compact disc handed to close friends & who they consider very important persons it crowns any official physical release as a holy item & a guaranteed to be a fast outspreading virus conquering the blogs foreheads.

Crystal Castles are releasing the first selftitled full-length album "Crystal Castles" internationaly on Feb 08, but for now their label "Last Gang Records" has unchained a selftitled promotional disc to give us a taste of what darkness lurks in the minds of these kids that refuse to be interviewed and won't show their eyes. The trio track cd contains "Untrust Us" a patriotic homesick pleed with "The Knife" like haunting vocals, the vandalism implying title "Crimewave" grooving with a disco beat & bathroom echoed vocals describing what seems to be human body parts, & "Alice Practice" a breakbeat-ish piece enriched with concentrated harsh bleeps & glazed with suffering vulgur girlie vocals.

Tracklist:
01. Untrust Us 3:06
02. Crimewave 4:20
03. Alice Practive 2:42

DL: Crystal Castles - Crystal Castls

If all the videogames music & ringtones in the world were composed by them then our planet would've been a much appropriate place to be.
