Crystal Castles playing reading festival

[yaypanda]

I remember seeing these guys live and the girl jumped into the crowd and just got molested for a good two mins!

[guitarguy7170]

BLACK PANTHER IS MY FAVORITE! I hope they play it at the concert I'm going to on September 8th!

[VickyBiscuitHead]

Thats not a concert, no one is jumping. if i was ther i would be raving my face off, and making sure everyone around me was to haha

[JamesPah]

Haha I can see myself in this video! I'm wearing the red tshirt, front row of the crowd on the right!

[MOXWELLDIAMOND]

OFF THE CHAIN!!!!

[stuckmode]

this...this is music?

[sakuraxxyourmom]

Yes, it is

[DerrickBouchard]

Yeah it is, you uneducated fuck... >_>

[riqard0lazz3r]

change the tittle

it´s black panter!!

[MOXWELLDIAMOND]

gangster

[asapparty]

what song is this?

[monev88]

that looks sick...i hear she's amazing live

cant wait to watch her in parklife!!!!!!

[CheckeredDemon310]

This song sounds so much better with a kickass drummer.

[mmsk123]

Hard L.A.? Hahaha how was that?

[RogueRobot5000]

@_@

seeing them at Hard L.A

[Shitage111]

looks so fun to be there lol

[raverbeat1992]

is really good

[MiniMattHaley]

arrrrr, i love them soo much. will see them for the first time at reading this year. i cant wait! :D

[aestheticsofhate87]

best crystals song ever, gonna see them next month at T in the park, gonna be a blast

well exited!!

[111549]

it makes me sad to see all the crowd surfers being pulled out

[jazzmavrik]

CC r amazing, black panther is awesome! one of thier best i think!

[gercy123]

Black Panther one of my favs!

[kinkyglow]

Wasn't there a two part video of them playing live at the reading festival somewhere on youtube?

[wormwolf]

best live show i've been to. ever.

[JoonyMilsom]

they put too much effort into everything but the music, which is great (they also neglected the album cover-didn't like that at all)

Good Times is best CC song ever

[wormwolf]

CC's album cover is as classic as any classic album cover through music's history.

[sophieorourke]

which song is this?

[Gaaytubechild]

sounds like

black panther

[Kitty8elle]

i actually cant find words to describe alice. all i know is, i love her, i love everything about her.

[leeway5555]

And you are pretentious enough to know what music and what it isn't?

[hiphophorray123]

this is art. people are getting jealous that their favourite music is not getting shine anymore. i love johnny cash, neil young, RHCP, a tribe called quest, T.I, big l, biggie, opeth, korn, joss stone dave matthews band john mayer lee scratch perry ziggy marley, rusko, pendulum, adam freeland, justice, etc etc etc

and crystal castles are fucking amazing.

open up your mind a bit more you stupid wannabe-pretentious narrow-minded fucks.

[dropdeadcody666]

yeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeees, finally,

[wormwolf]

My favorite band this decade.

[chrismorgan93]

she looks out of place on a big stage :(

Crystal Castles will always be a band that are better in clubs

Anyway, amazing, i love her <3

[walla134]

This is so true...

[samboothey]

look at the crowd,

there enjoying themselfs.

i don't think they give a fuck what you think.

[youcheekyfucker]

I'm not talking to the crowd, am I, you fucking moron? I don't care what anybody thinks, I'm voicing my opinion, and I'll I'm seeing is a bunch of wusses crying and not putting anything coherent forward.

[youcheekyfucker]

Music is made entirely of "technicalities" such as beats, tempo, melodies, etc...you idiot. Do you even know what technicality means? I don't think you do...

And no, it's not genius that Crystal Castles do this. How is it genius that a dumb druggie bitch like this girl can scream to a crowd while virtually nothing apart from a shitty drummer backs her...AND BE PRAISED?

Listen to real fucking music, you fools.

[JoannieBear]

i praise you.

[youcheekyfucker]

Haha, thanks. =]

[budweiserguy2008]

your fucking gay dude. quit being a kook how can there be real music and non real music its all the same everything sounds different let people like what they want and quit being a hater dickface

[cracklydubplate]

@budweiserguy2008 well said. haters gonna hate but let's call them dickfaces if they do eh ?

[expects82]

These are brilliant... I love em'! Shame too many people miss the point tho?!! Who cares if the drummer plays 4/4 blah blah blah if it works use it... music shouldn't be about technicalities! In its most primitive forms it was created to entertain?!! as Crystal Castles DO!!!

[youcheekyfucker]

lol. So this is what "cool" music is now? I suppose if I also go and tell my drummer to play a fast 4/4 beat with lots of Hi-Hat, while I scream at a crowd of people on ecstacy, I'll also get praised by NME?

[jujumistress]

You might! o:

[wormwolf]

It would suck if you did it. It's genius when Crystal Castles do it.

[AK47MONCO]

Are you being ironic?

[boyteeth]

fuck of you little homo. go listen to metro station dick tease.

[youcheekyfucker]

Rofl. You're suggesting Metro Station? No thanks, that's a band for young girls.

Also, the fact that I can spell "off" and not spell it as "of" determines that I am, infact, smarter than you. Your opinion is equal to trash.

And I would never take musical advice from a fan of Crystal Castles, lol. That's like taking stock market tips from a hobo.

[walla134]

Simply because you didn't make a simple spelling mistake does not make your intelligence any greater. Crystal castles are so energetic and the music is so strong that when heard live, it is almost imposible not to get involved... They dont try and go for the traditional 'musicaly correct' sounding song, they simply try to invoke emotions in an audience and do so brilliantly... Do not judge them until you see them perform live...

[youcheekyfucker]

I just did see them live, actually. If you didn't notice, above this comment, is a video of them playing live. They are terrible. They are poor musicians.

[piratelove38]

somebody needs to take a chilll pilllll

[lucindax7]

I was there! :D

xx

[LetTechnologyWork4U2]

that's rad!! btw, do you know what song this is????

[TeenCreeps]

Black Panther.

[hannerrrRIOT]

i could quite easily yell at a crowd of people whilst dancing. shes a twat

[jujumistress]

She more than likely had something to do with the creation of the music. In which case she has the right to yell and dance in front of anyone who gathers around to listen to said music.

[LetTechnologyWork4U2]

jujumistress,

I couldn't have put that reply to that douchebag "hannerrrRiot" better if I tried. Well said. Happy New Year. See you at the shows.

[LetTechnologyWork4U2]

hannerrrRIOT,

now is the time to feel the love bud, do we have to spell it out for you douchbag??

[lovexromancex]

blah blah BLAH!

[lovexromancex]

nobody is making you listen to

her music douche bag

if you dont like it stop listening

searching music that you don't like

doesnt make sense to me

DAMN.

[mookidd]

relax dude, I was kidding. I do like some of their music, magic spells has been literally one of my favorite songs for a while now. i'm just not a big fan of them as people I guess. The show was aweful by the way. But i still listen to them alot.

PEACE!!

[mookidd]

I like listening to CC sometimes but maan, she has no talent what so ever. Seeing what these people are like kills it for me every time. I'm seeing them on NYE in Brooklyn. I think as long as i listen to the beats and pay no attention to the crowd around me and the lame hipsters on stage i'll be fine. or hopefully they are on heroin like the dumbasses they are (or look like) and they OD before then.

[AK47MONCO]

Best comment on here.

[sofianoesta]

[uzko]

[GimmeDemDollars]

[sandmpromo]

[awwfriend]

[Boldtype]

[jesuspieces]

Haha who cares how long you've been a fan.

[MCRmauricio]

Wtf is up with all the little kids fighting against each other in the previous comments?

You're bragging now! Jesus Christ, your worse than the guy above u

[LolaFloresyOLE]

My penis is bigger than yours.

[Erey15]

wtf bitch????????

[XmaXimilianX]

this year again! will be fucking awesome.

[philipwillkillyou]

everybody shut the fuck up and listen to fucking band instead of having a fit over who heard it fIrst and WHO new about them before skins.JUST LISTEN TO SONG AND SPEW UR VERBAL DIAREAH SOMWER ELSE!!

[swiner]

ayeeeeeeee men

[T3hK3nny]

why are ye all watching the video if ye don't like them? fuck off... every artist ever took ideas from other people ye fuckin retards!

[EdxGein]

jealous cus you dont have the courage to leave the house and go to a show like this because you are so self concsious that the only way you can feel good is to judge other people for what they do.

you seem to

[lefty2510]

lol

[cramham]

hey isnt the drummer from lighting bolt?

[christopheradams]

defiantly not brian chippendale of lightning bolt

[bojn]

haha

thats for damn sure

[countfreddie]

boo hoo. get over yourself!

[ihitdrumz]

lol ur funny

its true though

lol i fuckin hate indie cunts with v necks and raybans

[countfreddie]

oh my god. i cant believe i didnt see these guys at reading last year. just made up for it at great escape this weekend in brighton. saw them twice! i am in love!!!!!!

[HomeBalls]

I actually watched Skins and never actually realised Alice Practice was on it, now I know...

[craigthered]

no the comment below you orange is correct, its shit how all the skins fan boys and girls jump on the bandwagon because they know one song by them from tele.. its utter bollox's that they have to try and live 'skins' lives to think there cool. Crystal Castles were better before they sold themselves out on skins, but they are still great (shame about all the sceneagers)

[leedslad06]

thats well pathetic.

if you like the band surely you should be glad that they are now being recognised. I'm sure they are actually grateful to skins for getting them heard of. I'd never heard of them until skins but really whats the big deal??

[SmugglingGrapes]

yeah same & i'm glad that skins had them.

there good but if they weren't on skins i wouldn't have heard of them untill recently because of NME

[orangelamppost]

I'm sorry I got the wrong song, wasn't paying much attention, but yes I had heard of alice practice before the skins episode, some proper electro buff at my college was passing the song around, anyway does it matter where you heard it first?

Big deal if you heard the song before it premiered on some big "in" tv show, still the same song afterwards, just being distributed to a wider audience.

the statement below is utter rubbish,i cant listen to certain songs because of stupid reasons

[beauselekta89]

yes but to i wider array of poeple listening adds more idiots to the batch

[beauselekta89]

sounds so much better live way more energy than the album

[mtrickett1]

FUCKING AMAZING I WAS THERE =D

was that the first time they played the uk??

[patdon100]

that fucking sucks she cant even sing

[mtrickett1]

That's the point.

Who needs to be an amazing singer to have a microphone? she is an amazing front woman and really hot too. =]

[orangelamppost]

Going to see them at Gatecrasher Summer Sound System festival this May.

Best place I heard this song (alice practice) was on the episode of skins when sid comes to realisation for his dead dad.

[FitzSnowy]

this isnt alice practise is it?

[marsupian]

No it is Black Panther

[beauselekta89]

i hate it how everyone likes crystal castles JUST because they heard it on skins

who fucking cares about skins

its just a tv show

i mean yeah its a good show but why do people suddenly think theyre cool because they listen to what everyone else listens to and talks about

think for yourselves people

stop acting like scenester clones and get a real life

one that doesnt lead you into a society where your life is planned out for you and where you cant think for yourself

[SmugglingGrapes]

ohmygod i'm a clone I WATCH SKINS so?

i know loads of people who watch it & we don't "suddenly think theyre cool because they listen to what everyone else listens to and talks about" & we don't act "like scenester clones" and,guess what, people can watch a tv programme & still have a life, it's not that hard and i THINK, seeing as i wrote this & didn't have a skins writer do this for me, i CAN think for my self

i feel much better now =]

[beauselekta89]

good for you

now read all my comments on the subject properly and find out that even i watch skins too you knob

[SmugglingGrapes]

yes i know but you do have to sterotype everyone else who watches skins as "scenester clones" i resent that

[beauselekta89]

ok not everyone but still i know no one in my school or anyone i know that isnt a scenester and im sorry if i said that about everyone who watches skins

[SmugglingGrapes]

i'm a knob? lol

you can't REALLY say that can you? you know, seeing as you've never met me

xx

[Angelfuck6]

post the whole thing!!

[sandmpromo]

The whole video?? This is all i managed to get.

[Angelfuck6]

aww alritee thanks

[ronancreighton16]

doesn't sound too bad live... sounds terrible on cd and download!!

[brodr696]

maybe it's the video sound but this version sounds way more dope than the album track.

[cfotoole]

Well the vocals are really low in the mix on the album. I actually like it better that way, but for a live show it would be sort of weird if you couldn't make out the vocals.

[mtrickett1]

I was there! =D One of the best bands I've ever seen live. Can't wait to see the for the 3rd time round in may =]

[staceyyeah]

i first discovered cc at reading and have been in love ever after

[BEZERKED]

Black Panter

[DrChronicles]

Front Row for this bad boy

Member when alice came down too the front and crowd surfed?

i lifted her into the crowd

WHAT A FUCKING LINEUP THAT DAY!!!

[Elevatorhead05]

Simple amazing... CC rules.

[toberborgan1]

look the difference in crowds with all the european and canadian concerts. i've come to the conclusion that america is a shitty populated country based on its abundant self conscious dancers

[RobbieRhinestone]

urrrrm. I just saw them on Friday at this huge club here called CiRCA.. here being Toronto. I have never seen the club so packed, people on all three floors hanging over the balcony to see.. it was mental, and for the record everyone was completely going offffff. ALso... you're stupid cuz you called Canada America. but you ar right that the UK knows how to fuckin party.

[springynoodle]

fucking AMAZING. I was being GRATED against the barrier front bloody middle.

I TOUCHED HER DAMMIT. I TOUCHED HER.

AND NO ONE CAN TAKE THAT AWAY FROM ME. haha.

[xyo1337]

Lmao dude, *shakes your hand*.

I TOUCHED THE HAND THAT TOUCHED ALICE!! *orgasm*

[0000mitch0000]

does any 1 know the name of this song and where i can download it?

[imjustinb]

'black panther'

and it hasen't been recorded yet.

[rapidz247]

I was at this gig, it owned!

!R2!

[LozenFlozen]

easily one of the best bands there!

absolutely amazing

[99csmith]

ive never been so hotter in my life at this. was like 26 degrees outside and inside the tent with the lights and everyone jumping was just immense. totally amazing set though

[Phil2007]

whoa 26 degrees. that is some immense heat right there.

not like to 40 degrees london had last summer. or the 50 degrees of vegas.

but yeah. it did get hot in the tents. but that was to be expected.

teenagers, CC, and does it offend you were the three best bands/

[heneray]

ahhah CC were sik, one of the best performances in reading , oh and thats me crowd surfing out!!!

[loza999]

they were so good !!!!!

wow everyone beter b going next year!!!!!

[chrisredmayne]

[eoinob1]

yer chilis sucked. didnt really see much of razorlight. this tent on the saturday at reading was awesome all morning! i was also near the front and my bro sed CC were gr8 at the underage gig. i fell in love with this woman....

[schaeferstriker]

one of the best i saw at reading, along with css.

razorlight and the chilli peppers can suck my balls!

[RedDress]

How amazing r they!!!!!!!!

[Kfrazor]

i was near the front for that baby.

SO GOOD!
