Description
The cult electronic duo Crystal Castles return with a reissue of their groundbreaking second album, Crystal Castles (II). Originally released in 2010, the album solidified the band’s status as pioneers of chaotic, lo-fi electro with a dark, melancholic edge.

The album features some of their most iconic tracks, including the ‘Celestica’, ‘Baptism’, and the glitch-heavy aggression of ‘Doe Deer’. Not In Love - later reworked with The Cure’s Robert Smith - stands as one of their most celebrated songs, blending icy synths with raw emotion.

A perfect mix of beauty and brutality, Crystal Castles (II) captures the band at their peak. Essential listening for fans of experimental electronica and darkwave.
