This band, crystal castles is my new favorite band obsession. Go to their website and buy their shit. If you don't like the music, then just send them money so they will keep doing this and I can buy it. Yeah it's technically synth, but I think it's more electroclash. How I can love this type of music so much, and hate "synth pop" so much I don't understand. I also don't understand why they show up under the genre of "thrash."

Are there clubs where they play this music? I would forsake everything I know about clubs right now to go to a place that played music like this where I could dance.

Yes I’m pissed off that yet another fucking band that I like is out of Candata/Toronto. I finally have an answer to "Why do you hate America?" The answer is "Because the music sucks."

TODAY has sealed the idea that it is worth every penny to upgrade this 7 year old laptop. I spend more time waiting for things to load than I do using the damn thing. $400? $500? Sure.

Yeah, it was more their response that pissed me off than the act. Had they downplayed the similarities or claimed they had initial permission (they didn't have permission to use them commercially), I'd have no issue with them. But, they denied they knew who any of these people were and said they were %100 original until people started pulling out proof. It's enough to make me like the music and hate the band.

I'd call them sort of a genre mashup between electroclash and chiptunes.
