This review refers to Crystal Castles (CD version).

This is such an immense album, it's difficult to put into words. I think NME said it best with it being 'unintentionally beautiful' because that's what this album is. The first track, Untrust Us, is probably my favourite. It has a different feel to it, like an ambient feel. Then the very famous Alice Practise and Crimewave you know are amazing. Then there's Air War and Courtship Dating. They're just amazing, they're so original, everything about it sounds great and they're beautiful.

These songs are incredible. If you need more convincing check 'Alice Practise', 'Crimewave', 'Untrust Us', 'Air War' and 'Courtship Dating'. There are more songs but those are the 5*'s. Put serious thought into this, it will not fail to please.

I find it kind of offensive that these guys are so often compared to the Klaxons when they're so desperately unique. Their classics are the best tracks on there, Air War, Alice Practice and XXZXCUZX Me feature as their signature tracks but I think the award for best foot stomping- scream alonga- rave tune goes to Love and Caring, sounding like they've been violating a Game Boy from the 80's for a sweet two minutes of glory. Actually tiring to listen to, this album is as emotionally evocative as it is raveable.

Customer rating: 5 out of 5 stars Fantastic.

Its Been A Long Time Coming, And They've Certainly Lived Up To Exceptions And More.
They've Put Most There Songs On The Lengthly Album, Which Doesn't Disappoint. Whether Your Just Listening To It Relaxing Or At A Party, There Are Songs On The Album That Meet Most Moods.

The Run Of Reckless, Black Panther & Tell Me What To Swallow Build Up A Great Electro Thrash Mood Then Calm Down Again. Its Great.

The Great Thing About The Album Is, If You Want Mindless Thrash They Put On There Best Thrash B-side, XXZXCUZX Me.

Great Album.

CC are an amazing band and they definitely one to look out for in 08. Their sound is just magnificent and soon everybody will catch on, which could be a shame for fans who have known about them for years. This debut album is great. "Courtship Dating", "Knights", "Air War" and "Untrust Us" are a must listen. but every song is worth 5 stars.

Customer rating: 5 out of 5 stars AMAZING!
