Crystal Stilts: Crystal Stilts

Crystal Stilts is a Brooklyn, N.Y., quartet. Its sound — equally droll, moody and buoyant — has roots in early ’80s Manchester pop as well as in minimalist garage-rock acts. The band has drawn comparisons to Interpol, Joy Division and early The Jesus and Mary Chain — with whom it also shares a penchant for stand-up drumming.  [last.fm]

Slumberland Records released the band’s debut full-length, Alight Of Night, in October 2008, following an earlier EP. They also just released a new 2 song EP called ‘Love is a Wave’, out now.
