Fnckkkkk! I missed all of CMJ except for our fantastic Friction last Friday. Then I get sick Saturday nite and miss the whole Digitalism and Justice party at Studio B that Justin and Theo had a chance to check out. Fnckkkkk! Now I see this awesomely festive video of Crystal Castles at Fader last Saturday and my blood is boiling. Fnckkkkk! The song is pretty smooth and the little dance the chick does is even hotter. It gets me hype! They’re hot! Their stripped down blipping electronic sound is explosive! That remix they did for Klaxons’ ‘Atlantis to Interzone’ is in the running for my favorite song of the year.
The two main bands in town that I was hoping to check out during CMJ were CC and Scanners, I missed them both. What a super bust, it makes me sad. We’ll have to find a way to get them to play one of our Friction shows.
Slap You In Public has another clip of them at the Annex.
BiBaBiDi has an interview with CC (Parts 1 and 2).
Plus an interview with another group of youngsters I enjoy, The Teenagers (Parts 1 and 2).
