Crystal Castles To Record New Single With Robert Smith

As if having a sold-out international tour and a critically lauded new album (II) wasn’t enough Crystal Castles have announced that they will be recording a single with The Cure’s frontman and symphonic guru, Robert Smith.

Not In Love will be released in early December on Fiction Records. The single will also feature a couple B-sides. Early acoustic demos of “Celestica” and “Suffocation” will also be included, which is awesome, even though it kind of defeats the purpose of a “single.”

Check out their video for their newest song off of II , “Baptism.”

As of now, Crystal Castles are over in Europe finishing a sold-out tour. They will be stateside soon enough, and if you want to see them you should go here!

The Lost Cavalry Release New Single


On November 15th, The Lost Cavalry will release their new single “The Elephant of Castlebar Hill.” Taken from the band’s acclaimed debut EP Waves Freeze to Rolling Hills, “The Elephant of Castlebar Hill” tells the story of a giant circus elephant that collapsed and died in Ealing, London in the summer of 1889. To this day, the elephant is still buried beneath the hill that it collapsed on.

The Lost Cavalry are a London-based alternative folk band formed in 2009 by vocalist Mark West, formerly the guitarist of Fanfarlo. Mark sings and plays the ukulele and concertina, Nick plays guitar, Toby plays the glock and melodica, Oliver plays bass and Dave drums.

CMJ 2010 Photos: Miniature Tigers @ Music Hall of Williamsburg


One of our favorite bands ever hit up the Music Hall of Williamsburg during CMJ. We totally had flashbacks of interviewing a young Mini T’s during their first ever NYC visit in 2008 at the festival. How time flys. We feel like proud parents. View all of the photos from the show HERE!
