Crystal Castles - (III)

When I heard CC were releasing a new album I almost pee'd on my pants. The thought it could be better than the 2 previous ones – Crystal Castles and Crystal Castles (II) - wasn't even a (real) possibility.

I was wrong.

(III) has exactly what was missing in the other two albums, normality. A certain sense for humanity, a touch of reality. It just looks like they've finally took it serious. It's still dark, don't get me wrong. The conflicts, the agony, the stress, they're all there (and Alice is there too, which always helps), but there is a layer of magic and balance that makes (III) sound perfect. 

The single, Wrath Of God, is a piece of art. Pure and simple.
