New Crystal Fighters double single – ‘Follow’ / ‘Swallow’
I’m a big fan of Crystal Fighters last single ‘In The Summer’ (which also featured in the latest podcast). The band have just announced a double A-side single in the form of ‘Follow’ / ‘Swallow’ which will be released on 20th of September just before their debut album Star Of Love.
Their output so far has been pretty schizophrenic from the dance freakout of ‘I Love London’ to the ravey synth-led ‘Xtatic Truth’ to the bonkers ‘In The Summer’. This new material is no different. ‘Swallow’ has a pretty standard dubstep breakdown glued into it while ‘Follow’ has a bouncy psychedelic streak.
Crystal Fighters – Follow
Crystal Fighters – Swallow
The band have also been confirmed for Electric Picnic after a great reception at the Body and Soul festival.
