Crystal Castles
wow, Crystal Castles are great. If you want to hear a great collision between art-punk and 8-bit chiptunes, look no further… of the two MP3’s over at that link, I think I’d recommend “Air War” over “Alice Practice”, but both are pretty brilliant.
Update: good news. Apparently they’ll be playing Dublin on May 11th, thanks to Maximum Joy (who are also putting on the !!! after-party do this weekend). Nice one!

Agreed. I’m doing a post as soon as I can on some bands that are using gameboys and 8 bit machines at the moment. There’s a guy called the Vinny Club from Dublin who I’ll be writing about. he’ son myspace.
That Crystal Castles gig should be cool.
