Crystal Castles have recently unveiled new track ‘Fleece’, which was premiered last night (August 15th) by Annie Mac on BBC Radio 1, taken from their forthcoming new album Amnesty (I). The track is available to listen to HERE. Moving glacially between ethereal techno pop and speaker-shattering rave breakdowns, ‘Fleece’ is another fascinating insight into the breathtaking sonic and emotional palette on Amnesty (I). In addition, Crystal Castles have announced a special in-store performance at Rough Trade East in London on Tuesday, August 23rd. This comes ahead of the band playing the BBC Radio 1/NME Stage at Reading & Leeds Festivals later this month, before continuing to further European and North American headline and festival tour dates, with further UK shows to be announced soon. Known for their chaotic live shows and visceral, melancholic home-made productions, Crystal Castles released a trilogy of critically acclaimed albums between 2008-2013. Their last album III was the Tumblr and Hype Machine album of the year for 2013, and NME’s #4 album of the year. In 2015 they released the stand-alone tracks ‘Frail’ and ‘Deicide’, with new member Edith Frances. Across its 11 tracks, Amnesty (I) explores the sonic and atmospheric range that we have learned to expect from a Crystal Castles record. From gothic electronic paeans to distorted digital raves, from cinematic synth and noise crescendos to hip hop and trap infused synth pop, it is uniformly compelling, uncompromising and anchored in feeling. Amnesty (I) is out now.

It follows a preview for a new track titled ‘Femen’ which emerged on the band’s Facebook page last week. In addition, the duo of Ethan Kath and Edith Frances have announced a run of European and North American live dates.
