people often gave her credit for my lyrics and that was fine, i didn’t care.Ĭan’t help but notice he’s conveniently leaving out “Wrath of God,” “Plague,” “Suffocation,” “Baptism” and “Celestica” - to name a few - as Crystal Castles’ “best known songs.” Anyhow, Kath hasn’t announced a follow-up to 2012’s III just yet, but it looks like Crystal Castles continues, at least, in some form or another. For 2012s more streamlined III, the duo decamped to Warsaw, where they recorded direct to tape, eschewing any computer-assisted recording. Not In Love, Vanished, Crimewave, Vietnam, Magic Spells, Knights, Air War, Leni, Lovers Who Uncover, Violent Youth, Reckless, Year of Silence, Intimate, 1991, Good Time, Violent Dreams etc.). it should be rewarding for her considering she didn’t appear on Crystal Castles’ best known songs. Char, Fleece, Frail, and Concrete are some of my other favorites. It is easily in my top 3 Crystal Castles songs and it may be one of my favorite songs of all time. i think it can be empowering for her to be in charge of her own project. The main reason people talk about this album is because of Kept and for good reason. I wish my former vocalist the best of luck in her future endeavors. Kath released a statement about the song that indicates there’s some unresolved acrimony between himself and Glass: But Ethan Kath is keeping the Crystal Castles name alive, and has just released a new track, titled “Frail.” Listen to it below. Last year, vocalist Alice Glass left the group, and suggested that she’d be going solo from here on out. The duo debuted more new material in early 2016, and Crystal Castles' fourth album Amnesty appeared that August.Crystal Castles isn’t dead. Another new song, "Deicide," surfaced that July, a few months before the new lineup's live debut at the Soundswild Festival in Johannesburg, South Africa that November.
Glass left the project in October 2014 to pursue a solo career in April 2015, Kath resurfaced with a new Crystal Castles track, "Frail," which featured new vocalist Edith Frances. For 2012's more streamlined III, the duo decamped to Warsaw, where they recorded direct to tape, eschewing any computer-assisted recording. The duo returned in 2010 with another self-titled album when it leaked onto the Internet in late April of that year, the band released it digitally soon after, with a physical release following that May. Tours with the Presets and Metric in 2007 set the stage for the release of Crystal Castles' self-titled debut album, which Last Gang released early in 2008.
Kath and Glass worked on their own songs and also honed their remixing skills, tweaking songs for Klaxons as well as GoodBooks, Uffie, Health, and Bloc Party. "Alice Practice" was released as a limited-edition 7" in summer 2006 on Merok Records, also home to Klaxons its 500-copy run sold out in three days. One of the songs the pair recorded, "Alice Practice," was something of an accident: it was intended to be a demo of Glass testing out a microphone, but its presence on MySpace piqued record labels' interest. When Kath collaborated with singer Alice Glass on some songs in spring 2005, Crystal Castles' lineup was complete.

Kath got the moniker from the name of She-Ra's dwelling in the He-Man and Masters of the Universe cartoon series it's also the name of a 1983 Atari video game, which is oddly appropriate, considering that one component of the band's distinctive sound comes from a keyboard modified with an Atari 5200 sound chip. Fusing lo-res electronic noise and pop hooks so effortlessly that it can seem accidental, Crystal Castles began as producer/multi-instrumentalist Ethan Kath's solo project in late 2003.
