To each their own, but I mean, i've never heard someone walk away from a CC set going "WOW THAT WAS AWSOME!!1!11!!1eleven!"
Hahaha except me, when I was tripping balls

True story.

If you would like to continue liking crystal castles, never see them live again.
See here for my reasoning why.
Their beats are pretty great, and on CD Alice Glass isnt so bad, but listening to them live made me want to cut my ears off and for that, ill probably never listen to them again.
Plus they're the epitome of hipster now. Their shows are like hipster conventions
If you like Aphex Twin though I suggest listen to Amon Tobin. Some real wonky music there.
And what about their theft of chiptune artists?Feste, not sure if your just linking, or if your a Trevor Brown fan, but if so I must say good to see, I've not found many other people besides myself familiar with his work.
But to stay on topic, personally I'm not a fan of CC's music, though the TB fiasco (now resolved btw) did not help my opinion of the group.
Their new album just leaked a couple days ago. I was a big fan of the first album, but I think this one is wayyy better. It is still raw like the first album but at the same time very lush, using a lot of different sounds not just the 8 bit thing. Alice also sings on a bunch of songs instead of just yelling. IMO a big step forward for them
