"I am leaving Crystal Castles.
My art and my self-expression in any form has always been an attempt towards sincerity, honesty, and empathy for others.
For a multitude of reasons both professional and personal I no longer feel that this is possible within CC.
Although this is the end of the band, I hope my fans will embrace me as a solo artist in the same way they have embraced Crystal Castles." -Alice
I will still support her as a solo artist. Artists all go through progressions and changes, so this is not necessarily bad news for me. I enjoyed a lot of their songs, but feel that every artist should do what is best for their art.
They produced some solid albums, and I am excited to see where Alice decides to go from here.
I'm honestly devastated. CC was everything to me from 2010 - 2013, and even though I haven't listened to them as much recently, I still loved and supported them.
Here I was, thinking that they'd be dropping an album any day now.
So sad to hear the news even though I don't use them like I used to back in 2010. Loved (III) but somehow I grew tired of that sound by the release of it.
so sad atm havent listened to their music in so long
in a way i kind of had no idea what their next album is going to sound like & im kinda excited to hear whats alice gonna come up with or even ethan
