“Crystal Castles songs could once be split into two camps, the "pretty" ones and the "aggressive" ones. (III) is by a large margin the most focused record by the band, and frontwman Alice Glass' lyrics take on a new importance.”
“While Crystal Castles continues writing some decent electropop tunes, on III the Toronto duo sees fit to decorate all of them with generic drum timbres and an overabundance of reverb.”
