Dance duo Crystal Castles will release their new single "Baptism" on July 26th, the second track to be taken from their self titled new album "Crystal Castles".
Over their short career Ethan Kath and Alice Glass have created an unexpected level of excitement and cult loyalty across the globe, clocking up a staggering 50 million plays on MySpace and Lastfm and continually topping Hype Machine's "Most Blogged" chart and headlining Sold Out tours around the world.
Their new album garnered much praise across the board. The first single "Celestica" reached the top of Pitchforks Best New Music and quickly became a Radio 1 playlisted record. 'Baptism' is the follow up - an exceptional record and a clear stand out from the album - it is set to surpass the achievements of its predecessor.
'Baptism' will be available digitally and 7" - backed by the much blogged Thurston Moore remix of "Celestica".
A whole host of summer festival appearances kick started at Glastonbury and will be followed by a full UK tour in October, dates below.
