Our Take

Crystal Castles' "iii" is a dizzying whirlwind of glitchy beats, haunting vocals, and ethereal melodies. The Canadian duo have once again demonstrated their mastery of experimental electronic music, creating a sonic landscape that is as unsettling as it is captivating. From the ominous opener "Plague" to the frenetic closer "Child I Will Hurt You", Crystal Castles take listeners on a rollercoaster ride of emotions. Tracks like "Wrath of God" and "Violent Youth" showcase the duo's ability to blend noise and melody in a way that is both jarring and beautiful. Lead vocalist Alice Glass's haunting vocals add a layer of darkness to the album, with her whispered verses and piercing screams creating an atmosphere of unease and tension. Producer Ethan Kath's glitchy, distorted beats provide the perfect backdrop for Glass's haunting vocals, creating a sound that is uniquely their own. While "iii" may not be for the faint of heart, it is a testament to Crystal Castles' boundary-pushing sound and fearless experimentation. Fans of experimental electronic music will find much to love in this album, with its bold sonic explorations and unapologetic darkness. Crystal Castles have once again proven themselves to be at the forefront of the electronic music scene, pushing boundaries and challenging expectations with their latest release.
