This was sent to me from a good friend of mine today; the news is semi-interesting, but what is really cool is the music you can listen to at their website. Someone needs to assist me with the mod powers for a link again.

Crystal Castles is being sued by 8bitpeoples for ripping off several of their artists. Terribly disappointing, but it's not going to dissuade me from listening to their music; they're ****ing awesome, thieves or not.

I don't think Crystal Castles ripped them off. They just make the same genre of music. bit harsh really

Well head to their website if you want the details, they have several links to articles regarding this matter, and after reading them I think there's some substance to the claim. But you be the judge.
