The song allowed her to speak covertly at a time when she was scared of going outside in case she was served with a lawsuit, she says, claiming that Kath started making legal threats in response to her tweeting stats about domestic abuse fatalities shortly after she announced her departure from the band. Glass had previously alluded to her experience when she released her debut solo single, Stillbirth, in July 2015: вЂњYou donвЂ™t own me any more,вЂќ she shrieked over music that she likened to вЂњbeing eaten by fire antsвЂќ. She felt it was her responsibility, вЂњespecially after I had been told he had done similar things to at least one other womanвЂќ. It was not until allegations surfaced against Harvey Weinstein that Glass (born Margaret Osborn) was emboldened to go public with detailed allegations of abuse against her ex-bandmate, Ethan Kath (real name Claudio Palmieri). It took time in rehearsals to shake off their negative associations. Ultimately, she decided to play the material to which she still felt connected вЂ“ вЂњwhere IвЂ™m feeling worthless and hopelessвЂќ, she says. She had polled fans on Twitter to ask which song she should play from the back catalogue of her former band, the anarchic electro-punk duo Crystal Castles, which she quit in October 2014. She apologises for the boxes that entomb the sofa, merch from her recent debut solo tour. Her voice only rises above its perpetual whisper when she calls to her cats, Mr Peanut and Fuzzy, the alpha who dominates her pit bulls, Jacob and Shadow. Glass is less macabre: there is a tattoo of Bambi on her thigh. A spider crawls out of the toilet roll when I use her bathroom. There is a fake Goya on the way down to her basement studio, where skulls surround the drums. Her kitchen resembles a graveyard of dead flowers she is annoyed that her living black lilies never droop when she is looking.

Most importantly, you'll come back for another listen.A lice GlassвЂ™s Los Angeles home is a picture of gothic splendour. Something that you'll compare future bands of the same genre to. Something that'll be in your head for a long time. At the end of the CD however, you come away knowing you've heard something new.

Magic Spells is a little dragged out, both musically and lyrically(which was taken from the TV show V) and sometimes, while very crucial to the music, the distorted vocals can get a bit unnerving. There are only a couple misses with the album.

Tracks like Air War, which is easily the best literary reading(the lyrics are taken from James Joyce's Ulysses) in any song I've ever heard, Alice Practice, XXZXCUZX Me and Black Panther make the album worth the buy. Lyrically, it has a lot of rude truth to it, but truth nonetheless. Nearly every track is something new and surprisingly addictive. Ethan Kath, also known for various remixes, has a very creative mind for music composition, while Alice Glass brings appeal with ear splitting vocals that have no business in electronic music, but increases the quality still yet. The CD in general is a great and unique addition to a genre that already has so much great music in it.

Stop rating an album on the action of the band. True, CC did deny some of the samples until proven true, but that doesn't mean the songs were bad. Daft Punk, for example, used samples on some of their biggest hits, and they're far superior to the original. The sample argument is weak at best, seeing as only a couple tracks used them & even then doesn't deduce from the quality. The sample argument is weak at best, seeing as only a couple A shame this album isn't rated higher, by critics or 'fans'.
