CRYSTAL CASTLES Tickets

Crystal Castles tickets for November tour dates are available now on Aloud.com.

Crystal Castles are back, and in no uncertain terms.

Following on from new track 'Plague', a first taster off their new album due this Autumn, the band performed at the Reading/Leeds Festivals over the weekend, where playing to a rapturous audience they debuted 'Wrath Of God', another new track from the forthcoming 3rd album.

Speaking recently about the forthcoming album, the band said: "Oppression is a theme, in general A lot of bad things have happened to people close to me since 'II' and it's profoundly influenced my writing as I've realized there will never be justice for them. I didn't think I could lose faith in humanity any more than I already had, but after witnessing some things, it feels like the world is a dystopia where victims don't get justice and corruption prevails. I'm one step away from being a vigilante to protect people and bring justice to the people I love. I've thought about it." says vocalist Alice Glass. "We wanted the new album to sound like a completely different and new experience. Any keyboards and pedals used on 'I' or 'II' were traded for different keyboards and pedals so that there would be a new palette of sounds to work with. We wouldn't allow any computers near the studio, everything had to be recorded to tape. We'd limit ourselves to 1 take because we believe the 1st take is the rawest expression of an idea.", says Ethan Kath.

In order to showcase more of the new material, along with previous highlights, they've lined up a UK tour in November
