Listen: White Lies “Death (Crystal Castles Remix)”

White Lies are quite a good band that just recently signed with Fiction Records (Kate Nash, Yeah Yeah Yeahs). Yes, we do know they released a single in April, just to save comments from over-excited hipsters.

“Death”, despite having a very jubilent and joyous name, is dark-flavored alternative rock at it’s best; it’s also the band’s latest single. Crystal Castles were nice enough to give it a remix that actually sounds finished/has something other than a single-layered loop…something some of their other work lacks.

If you’re interested in more, you can get a free MP3 by signing up for their mailing list here. The free MP3 is of their aforementioned first single, “Unfinished Business”, which is just as noteworthy as “Death”.

Roll on the album, what a fantastic band indeed!
