The following is a quote from Alice...Leaving Crystal Castles was the single most difficult decision I’ve ever made-that band was everything to me. My music, my performances and my fans were all I had in the world. I gave that up and started over not because I wanted to but because I had to. As difficult as it was, I knew that leaving was one of the best decisions I’ve ever made. It has taken me years to recover from enduring almost a decade of abuse, manipulation and psychological control. I am still recovering...Alice Glass.
Watching this breaks my heart. She was suffering behind the scenes of this...but she must’ve felt pressured both by Ethan and the support/love from fans to continue holding on. I salute her. As an abuse survivor myself, it takes so much strength to pull through and escape.
Richárd András Theres been evidence for years around the internet, this isn’t the first time abuse was brought up. Trust me, go look at some of their old interviews and you tell me if she looks happy being next to him. She was a vulnerable child wen he lured her in.
"Lies....lies......lies...everything is cruel.everything is false. everything you know means nothing. tomorrow....tomorrow. another lie...another lie...another" fun at the time, but knowing what she had to go through it kinda adopts a pretty dark meaning, doesn't it?
I've been listening to this song everyday for the past week and it's my go-to for letting all my anger out. The performance is just so emotional and it feels like Alice is putting all her heart and soul into this song to scream out what she wants to say, but is being held back by Ethan's synthesiser.
It's so sad to let your artistic perception change because of what you read in the news. Ethan's synthesizers are also the reason why everybody fucking loved this band, whether he's a rapist or not.
I just feel horrible for her watching this, especially now. It’s just disturbing really, that creep right there always behind her shoulder even when shes trying to perform for her fans and do her art. She recovered brilliantly though, and I love her solo album. EDIT: It’s true that while they are just allegations, you can tell when someone is lying about something as serious as this and I definitely feel like she was telling the truth. So yeah, I can’t prove she was telling the truth or lying, but I can choose to believe her which I do.
@@merlinho0t okay then, everyone is entitled to their own opinion. maybe the previous comment you had responded to was being rude, I don't know, but it sounded like you were being rude back.
Its like alice is a robot thats sentient, and she's trying to scream for someone to help her get out of her metal body but its muffled by the electronic voice filter.
It’s amazing how they remixed the original and came out with coherent lyrics. The line “like the summer into rough hands” is so simple and poetic at the same time.
Cattacr Don’t be sorry! (: Alice wants to share her story to empower others. msmagazine.com/blog/2018/03/05/alice-glass-legal-victory-against-her-alleged-abuser-and-former-crystal-castles-bandmate/
I have been listening to crystal castles for a while now and I was scrolling through the comments and I had no idea Alice was abused... I'm glad she is getting better now and glad she left cc to get help. it was for the best
lol who sees alice as weak??? she has been known as a badass for over a DECADE. she has always been fierce as fuck. Just because she came out about having experienced abuse doesnt make her weak. Like wtf, who called alice weak????
@@funeralchild9950 I don't see her as weak, but accusing Ethan for abuse with such a lack of evidence implies people do see her as weak. It's all so hypocritical ...
I just found out able this band and my god I feel awful for poor Alice and the amount of abuse and manipulation she had in only 15 years old age.. God it's so upsetting, I'm happy she left the band it was for the better of her health
She is the best example of expressing her feelings thru art. Whether or not she would be the best person for the role she is the best of the most memorable. ❤️
Glad Alice could finally start to heal ❤ as much as she gave us some of the best soundtracks to our teenage years she deserves to be happy & safe away from Ethan.
yall are listening to the exact same vocal on your phone but complaining about her singing like this live. This is her vibe. this was crystal castles vibe. She was abused, who knows maybe he forced her to not use her real voice? what a show, she is iconic.
Omg. I have never heard of this band but I remember in my teens I was at my bff's house and her and her brother both were leaning how to play instruments. Her brother was learning how to play the drums and she was learning how to play bass. So I had said that we should have a band and the name of the band should be Shattered Glass. They both didn't like that name. Lol. But I was listening to She Wants Revenge on TH-cam tonight and this band popped up. There alright. ❤🎉
was here monday april 15th 11:52 at night had a good day painted the interior of a apt for people with mental disabilities I do this to remember my days
To new fans since they are coming back around due to tiktok: She was 15 and he was 25-26 when they met. She was part of a squatter community due to home life and he saw her perform with her all girl band Fetus Fatale while he was in Kill Cheerleader, then they created their own band. Alice Glass has stated that he got her so drunk that night he took her to the back of his car and assaulted her. Idk if she remembered until later in life bc she was black out drunk but they also had consensual sex bc as her teenage journal said she was excited that an older man that was well known in the punk scene in Toronto was into her, she didn't really see what he was doing to her bc she was very much just a baby. Then follow that with 10 years of assaulting her, hitting her, not allowing her to have a phone, locking her in rooms, forcing her to perform even when she had a terrible stomach flu that caused her to faint on stage, he would call her a clown and tell her that all of her fans were laughing at her before she would go on stage, and much more. All to feed into her self-destructive and angry on stage image/presence. Then discredited her contribution to CC after she left the band without even saying it was because of all the abuse and instead she said it was due to creative differences. He also accused her of leaving to get help for her craziness and drug addictions when he was who introduced her to/got her addicted to drugs and alcohol and fucked with her mental health, AAAAALLLLLLLLL for the image of the "band". And that's when she released her statement. Hope this helps those new to this to see how much of a monster Ethan Kath/Claudio really was/is. And there's still SO MUCH MORE DUDE ugh
@@bolan4185 I don't think anyone of us can say for sure how much truth there is to the allegations she made about Ethan. At the end of the day it is allegations, nothing more, nothing less. Anyone can make them. Without hard evidence it is tough to judge except if you are naive and believe everything anyone says.
Been checking these guys out lately. I typically don't get into newer bands, I'm a big 80s new wave/synth pop fan. I'm diggin the sound on a lot of their tracks (and absolutely love the one with Robert Smith), but the distorted vocals are a bit of an acquired taste. I'd like to hear how they sound with cleaner, more decipherable vocals.
They might have so many problems but i must say alice and ethan are complementary to each other, they complete each other in terms of music. Good things won't last long like the band
