Crystal Fighters: Star of Love

Posted on December 15th, 2010 by Locke

Currently based in London, Crystal Fighters are originally from Spain and play Basque instruments mixed with hardcore electronics. They released their debut album, Star of Love in early October. Overall I would describe the sound as a mix between Sleigh Bells and jj.

They were recommended to me by an online acquaintance recently and I couldn’t have been hooked any faster:

We were born to be alone, everybody all alone
Born alone to be alone, we’ll stand alone forever
Standing on the world alone, learning how to stand alone
And always to be alone, we’ll be alone forever

I’m not one to agree with the literal message, but hearing the lyrics in the song is quite piercing.
