A very good second outing
I first saw Crystal Castles in a Skins episode a few years ago and instantly loved the harsh completely unique styling of their music. Their first self titled album brought together some very indistinguishable sounds that you would never have heard anything like before. From the powerful Alice Practice to the travelling conceptual nature of courtship dating the American duo combined sharp dance with methodical lyrics. This follow up contains similar vibes that consistent of the same electronic genre and this time with more understandable agendas. Some of the best tracks are Celestica, Baptism, Pap smear and Vietnam. All bringing back that wonderful dance styling from the first album and when on Jools Holland Celestica for me was made even better. This album unlike the previous release took a while to get into as certain songs were not as inviting into their world. The opening to 'I am made of chalk' is rather strange at first, Doe deer is exceptionally eccentric and the feeling is more forced rather than chilled. Nevertheless once you understand the band taking on this new style you can appreciate how they've accomplished justifying the dance genre. The tracks flow consistently like the first album and whilst the first is sharper this has some cracking numbers that, if you were a fan of their first album, are certainly worth checking out. 8/10

Experimental and innovative
It's pretty experimental but I've been a big fan of Crystal Castles for a while. Not the thing all your friends would necessarily enjoy however! It's not easy listening

Estás comprando un excelente disco que vas a disfrutar en verdad
¡Excelente disco! el álbum musicalmente vale mucho la pena; sobre todo si te gusta la electrónica oscura. Muy recomendado. El paquete llegó antes de tiempo, lo cual siempre es excelente y se agradece. Como quiera, ojo para los coleccionistas o puristas, la funda interior de papel venía un poco maltratada. No es significativo, porque el vinil se escucha de maravilla.

Yes. !
Album particolare . Suoni ricercati , a tratti cupi , profondi, spesso nervosi . Ottime le melodie e i ritmi . Alcune tracce suonano con dei richiami agli anni 80. Un disco ben bilanciato . Lo ascolto spesso e volentieri . Notturno ....
