Crystal Castles claims to use a modified keyboard that uses an Atari 5200 sound chip as an oscillator, although this may be a misquote. Since the release of 'Alice Practice', the duo announced plans to release their first full-length album on Last Gang Records, which was released in North America on 18 March 2008 and released in the UK on 28 April 2008.Д¬rystal Castles' music is easily recognized by their heavy use of samples and distorted female vocals.

Glass was not aware that it had been used until record companies heard the song and contacted the duo to offer them record deals. According to Ethan, the band's first single was recorded 'accidentally': a microphone test by Glass was released through MySpace as 'Alice Practice' in September 2005. In April 2005, Alice Glass recorded vocals for five original instrumentals by Kath.

Crystal Castles are known not only for their own efforts as a band, but also for their chaotic live shows and Kath's remixes for a number of groups, including 'Hunting for Witches' by Bloc Party, and 'Atlantis to Interzone' by friends, Klaxons.Д¬rystal Castles, named after the Crystal Castle from She-Ra: Princess of Power, formed in December 2003 as a project started by Ethan Kath. Crystal Castles is a Toronto-formed band, consisting of multi-instrumentalist Ethan Kath and vocalist Alice Glass.
