After enduring the most unpleasant show in at least five years last Wednesday I was beginning to forget what is endearing about this band. The "glitch-punk" duo has an LP coming this summer, and this is one of the first two songs to make it's way out.
"Celestica" has far less of the glitch and the screaming that can normally be associated with Crystal Castles. It features a comforting beat that feels throughout more like a Goldfrapp sample. It's upbeat and the vocals are actually sung, giving you that rare Crystal Castles reaction--"I think I just heard lyrics." This isn't one of the mosh-ready singles of 2008, and at first glance doesn't play to the aggravating douchebaggery frequently found in their fan base. "Celestica" is actually easy to listen to.
