Watch: new Crystal Castles video
TheBoyDeadly by TheBoyDeadly April 14th, 2008

Crystal Castles are, by all accounts, difficult sods. But you can afford to be, I suppose, when you're releasing singles as good as 'Courtship Dating' out into the world.

Playing chicken/egg with Timbaland's 'AYO Technology', the single also fills its background with HEALTH's harsh wails and screams, vocalist Alice's voice refracted over 'Courtship'.

The single is released on the 21st of April, a week ahead of their self-titled debut album. Review soon, video below. And yes, it is supposed to be dark for a while at the start - wait it out.
