Crystal Castles perform at Capitol in Perth on Wednesday 11 February 2009.

Since forming in 2004, the Toronto-based duo of Ethan Fawn and Alice Glass has amassed a cult following with their uncompromising and intense delivery, a slew of limited edition singles, and electrifying live performances. Over this time the band has toured extensively in the UK, Europe and North America, shared bills with the Klaxons and Metric, and has also remixed tracks for the likes of Bloc Party and the Klaxons, amongst others.

Crystal Castles unique take on bleep-pop and electro glitch has seen them categorised as leaders of the 8-bit and nu-rave subgenres, however the bands nihilist aesthetic and a diverse body of work suggests their sound is beyond classification.

Tickets on sale from Moshtix for $44 + booking fee. 18+ gig.
