we're into bands that don't even exist yet.



get to know:




crystal stilts are apparently blowing up, now getting the pitchfork sign of approval

cap cracked an egg of knowledge all over your face about these guys not so long ago. classic novel designs move.

"Neither a Rat Pack-styled slickster on crutches nor a Devendra Banhart tribute (that I know of), "Crippled Croon" is a song by Brooklyn band Crystal Stilts, who pour a ton of reverb over rudimentary girl-group drums, surf-inflected guitars, and post-punk's haunted aloofness." surprisingly little mention of joy division is made.
