# Crystal Castles announce new LP
**Crystal Castles**' 2010 sophomore release was something of a grower
for us. We had to get over our expectations and realize that **Alice
Glass** and **Ethan Kath** had evolved from their days of fistfucking
Atari destruction. Instead, we were given throbbing,
industrial-influenced electronic dance steeped in bleakness, with tracks
like 'Celestica' trading more on pop than punk. It worked, though: the
album remains one of our favorites of the year. Kath recently announced
in an **NME** interview that the duo would be recording a new LP in
Warsaw, to be released this summer. We were already praying for an end
to winter; now we have an even better reason. We're spending the
afternoon reliving CC Memories, such as their fantastic [**Robert
Smith**][1]{: target="_blank"} collaboration 'Not In Love' and the
under-appreciated thrasher 'Doe Deer'. Join us!
**Not In Love (feat. Robert Smith)**
**Baptism**
**Doe Deer**
**Celestica**
