Crystal Castles is an experimental electronic music band from Toronto, Ontario, consisting of producer Ethan Kath and vocalist Alice Glass.

Crystal Castles are known for their chaotic live shows and their melancholic lo-fi home productions. The duo have released many vinyl EPs between 2006 and 2007 and also two eponymous albums, in 2008 and 2010 respectively. The band's debut album was included in the "Top 50 Greatest Albums of the Decade" by NME Magazine, at number 39. Crystal Castles were named after the lines "The fate of the world is safe in Crystal Castles" and "Crystal Castles, the source of all power", both lines referring to fictional character She-Ra's fortress in the sky. The band was formed in December 2003 as a solo project started by Ethan Kath.

Ethan later discovered Alice Glass singing in her noise-punk band, and thought he had found the "missing ingredient" to his music. In 2004 Ethan gave Alice 60 instrumental tracks. In April 2005 Alice Glass recorded vocals over five of these new instrumentals.
