Crystal Castles are the best live band I’ve ever seen. I go to shows every weekend.

I’m 42 or 43 and love the album and was looking forward to seeing them but feel that maybe I should stay home and put on the headphones and look at the flames on the fire now instead

“If that’s the case, why did the reviewer spend a full paragraph talking about how young the audience were? Age has nothing to do with the music but the reviewer brought it into the equation.”

Age has a lot to do with it

I saw CC in Limerick last year – had been impressed by some of the MP3s etc prior to that…However, to me they smacked of a band where style far outweighed substance(think the Limerick set may have been about 25 minutes by the way).
Perhaps, I felt that because I’m now 26 and perhaps “old” to some, while many of those younger last year were way more into it.

I have the same opinion on ‘Skins’ and I happened to turn that on recently, and guess what? Crystal Castles turned up on it…summed it all up for me.

Why would someone who “obviously dislikes all music” bother being a “music” reviewer, EH?!

think about it Amadán.

Let it go people. We love Niall. Don’t listen to them. You are all things music.
I also touched your head Sunday night at Foals. Your shorter than i thought, between you and Yannis Sunday i felt (literally) like a giant.

This article is bullshit. Niall obviously dislikes all music, or just feels resentment towards those who are making something new, as opposed to just writing about it

Here here, what a bloody intelligent comment. Deirdre you’ve outstripped yourself in the “fucking-insane-shit-people-say-on-internet-comments” stakes.

If however you’d been there for a Tuesday night rave

Is it me or did raves use to be illegal and uncontrolled parties in undisclosed locations near a city with bangin tunes that went all till the next mornin? or am I too old, like the greying elder statesman Nialler?

i anticipated something big but nothing like this…as soon as the first blip hit, the fucking place exploded. I mean from row 1 to row 20, the whole place blew up.

It was a great, great show, Full of energy & choas! True, it wasn’t really mean’t for picking out your fav songs from the album but sure there ya go…
Have too agree also I was surprised by average age of the crowd, younger than I expected..Neither a good or bad thing, everybody has the right to go see their fav bands. The lads on the decks went on for a bit too long as well, it was a lot of waiting around for CC.
But the most dissappointing thing for me was… No merchandise! I was looking forward to proudly wearing a Crystals shirt . . .Time to gets a credit card me thinks.
Anyways yeah, great show…second only to Gallows at voodoo lounge
