"Not in Love" turned up on Crystal Castles' self-titled 2010 album, a song written by Mark Holmes and Sergio Galli that the band bent into their own shape, and this take features a guest vocal from Robert Smith. Ethan Kath mixed it and co-produced with Paul Epworth and Jacknife Lee, and the result sounds like new wave heard through a blown speaker: chilly synths, a pulse that won't sit still, and Smith's voice drifting through the static like a ghost who wandered into the wrong party.
