On Wednesday, Alice Glass appeared to unequivocally herald the end of Crystal Castles, as she decided to depart and go solo.
Today, however, the band's manager has told NME: "There will be twists and turns ahead for Crystal Castles, I wouldn't bury the dead just yet!"
Crystal Castles is (was?) an acclaimed duo comprising Glass and Ethan Kath, formed in Toronto a decade ago and releasing three albums.
Yesterday, Glass issued this statement online:
"I am leaving Crystal Castles. My art and my self-expression in any form has always been an attempt towards sincerity, honesty, and empathy for others. For a multitude of reasons both professional and personal I no longer feel that this is possible within CC. Although this is the end of the band, I hope my fans will embrace me as a solo artist in the same way they have embraced Crystal Castles."
