Crystal Castles received great reviews and ranked #39 on NME Magazine "Top 50 Albums of the Decade". This album reached #47 on UK Albums Chart, #6 on US Top Electronic Albums, #13 on US Top Heatseekers, and #32 on US Independent Albums. On the 18th March 2008 they released their debut album entitled Crystal Castles. However, Glass declared over a decade later that this story was not true.
The track was a microphone test by Glass and she was not aware that the recording existed until London UK's Merok Records asked to release the track on vinyl, according to now ex-bandmate Kath. The limited vinyl release of the band's first single Alice Practice sold out in only three days. In 2004 Kath gave Alice 60 instrumental tracks and in April 2005 she recorded vocals over five instrumentals. Ethan later discovered Alice Glass singing in a noise-punk band, and thought he had found the "missing ingredient" to his music. Initially the band was intended to be a solo project started by Ethan Kath in December 2003. Their debut album was included in NME's "Top 50 Albums of the Decade". They are known for their melancholic lo-fi sound and their explosive live shows. They are named after the lyrics "The fate of the world is safe in Crystal Castles" and "Crystal Castles, the source of all power" both from the theme song for She-Ra's fortress. Alice Glass served as the lead vocalist for the group since its foundation until 2014.
