Immerse yourself in the captivating world of Crystal Castles with their groundbreaking second album, now available as a limited edition 2LP black vinyl. Originally released in 2010, this reissue reaffirms the duo’s status as pioneers of chaotic, lo-fi electro infused with a dark, melancholic vibe.
The album showcases some of their most iconic tracks, such as ‘Celestica’, ‘Baptism’, and the glitch-heavy energy of ‘Doe Deer’. One of their standout songs, ‘Not In Love’—later reimagined with Robert Smith of The Cure—perfectly blends icy synths with raw emotion, making it a true celebration of beauty and brutality. This album is essential listening for fans of experimental electronica and darkwave.
