The Crystal Method have announced a new studio album, THE CRYSTAL METHOD, which will be released January 14, 2014. The self-titled disc marks the follow-up to the 2009 GRAMMY award-nominated album Divided By Night.
The music bristles with the kind of artfully crafted soundscapes that solidified The Crystal Method, who now celebrate their 20th anniversary as one of the most successful electronic music outfits in history. Fans can experience a listen now with the track “Emulator.”
Meanwhile, the duo of Scott Kirkland and Ken Jordan also tapped a myriad of friends for this forthcoming offering. Dia Frampton adds a sense of soul to “Over It,” while country star LeAnn Rimes lends her instantly recognizable and infectious pipes to the gorgeous “Grace.” Other dynamics come from the likes of Franky Perez (“Difference”), Le Castle Vania (“Storm The Castle”) and Afrobeta (“After Hours”).
“It’s been 2 decades since this started, and electronic music has enjoyed a huge resurgence,” says Jordan. “We wanted to reintroduce ourselves to the world here. The name itself signifies 20 years of doing this. It represents a great deal of hard work, fun, and rewards. It’s simply who we are.”
Kirkland adds, “Actually, we hate coming up with album titles, and it was just easier to call it The Crystal Method. It’s a Walter White-approved name!”
Since Divided By Night, the duo has traveled the world playing to sold-out audiences far and wide. In addition, they’ve further expanded their formidable film and television resume working on the score for the hit film Real Steel with none other than the iconic Danny Elfman. They show no signs of stopping or slowing down.
