ItвЂ™s as though the click is meant to serve as a reminder that at any point, Crystal Castles could lunge for your throat, no matter how beautiful the moment otherwise seems to be. The biggest difference is that this time around, the approach somehow seems less schizophrenic and more like natural changes in mood than chaotic shifts- Crystal Castles are still clearly testing their audienceвЂ™s patience and boundaries, but it would appear to be for some higher purpose now.ДЇor the masses, this probably becomes most apparent on lead single вЂњCelestica,вЂќ which finds Alice Glass showcasing the more beautiful, lilting end of her vocal spectrum to a disarmingly somber backing that is occasionally interrupted by a high-pitched, metal-on-metal click. Once again, the moments of beauty are pursued by moments of insanity or outright confrontation.

Instead, Crystal Castles follows a similar pattern to the bandвЂ™s debut, also eponymously titled. If you were expecting their sophomore and second self-titled release to find the band maturing and acting like adults, youвЂ™ve been paying attention to the wrong group. If bands could be reduced to single words, Crystal Castles would be вЂantagonistic вЂ™ be it albums marked by a pattern of bursts of noise followed by pure electropop bliss, followed by hardcore or via stage antics that mothers of 13 year-old girls would recognize from their own trials and tribulations, Crystal Castles have turned acting out into an art form.
