Man, the second I hit publish on a new Crystal Castles’ song stream, I get hit with the news that the whole new album, (III), is up on Spotify now. Gah! Also? Sweet! I’ve loved every track I’ve heard so far — “Plague,” “Wrath Of God,” and “Sad Eyes” — so I’m stoked to dig in. You guys are, too? Let’s spin this thing, then! Stream the album below, comment in the comments.
III is out 11/12 on Casablanca/Fiction/Universal Republic.
(Thanks to David Sobalvarro for the tip.)

consistency from a good band, something that has been lacking in 2k12
?
anyone know of when that patch that makes Alice Glass an unlockable player is dropping? I wanna pair her w/ Biebs for a legendary backcourt
spacejam was the tits
Speaking of Space Jam and tits, I wonder how many kids turned out a little messed up because Lola Bunny gave them their first boner.
there’s more of us than just you and I
It was Jessica Rabbit for me.
jessica rabbit may as well have been naked
Loving the extremely compressed kicks on this record. (III) seems much more polarized than (II) and there is truly not much fluff on the release. Plus the closing track is beautifully haunting.
For me the strongest tracks are Plague, Affection and Child I Will Hurt You. Plague is so strong, possibly the one of their best cuts ever. I must admit though, as a whole, I like (II) better.
I love the music and this one is pretty easily accessible as opposed to there other more disjointed ventures. But i agree with Dorothy, (II) has my heart. Plague and Affection for sure.
Child I Will Hurt You is giving me some strong Edward Scissorhands/Danny Elfman vibes.
Good stuff.
In retrospect, it’s amazing how relatively little recognition/hype CC has gotten after churning out three great records. Diggin this one already.
Wow. This does not sound at all like the AV Club review lead me to believe. I’m really digging it.
A bit ironic that we can’t stream from Canada since CC is from here… Damn you spotify! Saw in show lately, sure it’s pure deliciously dark electro as always.
(II) will always have my heart, but this isn’t bad. I really like Plague, Sad Eyes, and Child I Will Hurt You. There’s a bit of a slump after Transgender though, and placing Wrath of God and Affection back to back doesn’t really make sense. Still solid though.
Violent Youth is bloody good

you assholes
i feel u dog, ppl cant handle the ratchetness
Ahhh, upon reading it a second time, it seems you are loving on “Pale Flesh” even though at first glance it looks like you are smashing on it.
Because when I was jamming this album yesterday I kept going, “Why does d-titties disapprove of this track? This beat is trill.”
But yeah, more importantly, who rappen’ over this thing?
good question. need someone with fire in the belly. maybe belly? http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Belly_(rapper)
Definitely not belly.
I pre-ordered via iTunes… and was notified TODAY (Nov 7) that the album was available. Been “spinning” it since. Great album.
first impresh: Not a bad ditty. definitely some bangers. not as abrasive as II, which is a tits album, no question. this album has got me currently 1/4 chub, but i could see it going 4/5 usher climaxes, easily. which, is just a mess for me but worth it.
always worth it.
hey, thanks.
-DonTitty.
i envision that guy really like crystal castles, all 27 of him…
There’s a mexican band called Castillos de Cristal…..talk about creativity
This is really great. now I’m regretting not seeing them live, though I’m sure there’ll be plenty more opportunities for me to do that.
lol wow. you really fucked up on that one. 2 bad 4 u.
yeah, I know. Goddamn College taking up my time.
