Their debut album, Crystal Castles, was released in 2008. In 2009, it was listed on NME’s "Top 100 Greatest Albums of the Decade" list at No. 39.In 2010 their second album, titled (II), charted on the Billboard 200, and includes their first worldwide charting single, "Not In Love", featuring vocalist Robert Smith of The Cure.
