What's your favorite Crystal Castles song?
they dont even have one guitar solo though
Vanished
Mother Knows Best
Affection
Lost my virginity to this shit.
Now that girl is gone
and I'm wallowing in my sadness.
Magic Spells is pure gasm
Pap Smear
love the swelling synths that make up the harmony, and the melody is immensely catchy.

They have literally zero good songs
Magic Spells or Vietnam, fuck there's a lot of good songs tho

Lies. I'm not saying they are original or groundbreking, but they are a fun band with a solid discography and top-tier live performances (at least durning Alice)

They were fun during their debut album days but everything after that just turned more and more bleak and depressing. CC3 and A1 are barely listenable.
>>70510098
CC3 was better than average, and their magnum opus is the second self titled.
>>70510098
crystal castles has always been depressing, there's no mood difference between their albums at all.
>>70510098
bleak and depressing =/= bad
but yea cc1 and cc2 were the high points, cc3 is still pretty good, and the band really ended when alice left

>CC3 was better than average
No. CC3 was cringy tumblr-esque witch house. Maybe 1 or 2 good songs on it tops.
This song is better than anything on CC3

Album ranking:

This. While 2 is technically their most accomplished and best composed work, 1 is far more enjoyable and re listenable.
What's the link of that Russian party video with a song of Crystal Castles in the background? That's my favorite one, but I don't know its name.

This is probably the general consensus but arguing over 1 and 2 seems like personal preference really b/c most will agree they are at least close.
Speaking of which I def prefered the version of "not in love" without robert smith but now it seems to be the only one I can find on streaming sites :(

CC3 is nice, in my opinion, they finally did some straight up pop tunes and I love pop.
>>70510219
2 is better when you try to look at their discography objectively
