The face of Crystal Castles called it quits this morning. Alice Glass, cialis pixie-like electro punk enigma, broke news of leaving the band to work as a solo artist this morning via Facebook:

“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.”

It has yet to be confirmed if Ethan Kath will continue the band with another vocalist, or embark on other solo projects.
