On Thursday September 27,  Crystal Castles will be performing live at the Fillmore Charlotte venue. Expect full-throttle hype, as this Charlotte venue is the kickoff city for their Fall 2012 North American Tour.

Crystal Castles’ sound is kind of indescribable, incomparable to other artists.

Let’s put it this way – the combination of metal-angst with an electronic, light-techno beats makes Crystal Castles’ sound so unique and original.

If you have not seen them live before- do not miss this show. The duo, composed of vocalist Alice Glass and producer Ethan Kath, bring some sick tunes to the table while experimenting with next level electronic music.

They officially announced last week that they are releasing their new album in November, which will be their 3^rd album. Attendees are most likely to get a taste of their new tracks, since they released a couple of them already, including a track called “Plague.” It has gotten great reviews from their fans and followers on Twitter.

Quick heads-up to attendees though – Glass has been known to be a loose cannon on stage. Climbing whatever she can and diving into the crowd at any chance given. She even had to be in a boot with crutches after breaking a bone during a performance.

In years past, the duo has performed for huge crowds at festivals such as Coachella, Bonnaroo, Moogfest and Ultra, as well as other big-time international festivals.

Opening up for Crystal Castles is the band HEALTH. If you are the type to arrive half-way through the opening act, think again for this show. HEALTH has received awesome reviews from critics nationwide and expectations are set high.

Tickets for the September 27 show are still available through the Live Nation website or at the Fillmore Charlotte box office.
