Sebastian and Gilbert were old friends, while Gilbert and Graham met through various parties. The three then began making music under various guises before being joined by Laure and Mimi. The band now play with a live drummer.
The group took their name ‘Crystal Fighters’ from an unfinished opera which Laure’s grandfather had penned during his final months of insanity. Laure came across the manuscript while clearing out the reclusive old man’s remote home in the Basque countryside. She quickly became obsessed by the intriguing scrawls within it and shared it with the others. Captivated by its seemingly prophetic contents, the band took on the name and formed in an attempt to expand upon the wild and deranged spirit of the old man’s writings.
Crystal Fighters’ style is a fusion of genres – fast progressive dance music joined by the melodies and dances of traditional Basque folk, alongside synthesisers, bass-driven wonk-funk, with beats fuelled by early 80s Spanish punk and experimental electronica from bands such as Aviador Dro, Las Vulpes and Dulce Venganza. Basque music informs much of their songwriting: the riff on ‘Champion Sound’ is lifted from the Basque folk piece ‘Sagar Dantza’ and ‘In The Summer’ draws upon music heard at the Carnival of Lantz in Navarroa.
In 2008, popular music-website Palms Out Sounds picked up the track ‘I Love London’ and news of the band's unique sound began to spread. This led to two single releases through record label Kitsuné in 2009. The band had released “Xtatic Truth” via Kitsuné in May 2009. It captured the attention of BBC Radio 1’s Nick Grimshaw who made it Single of the Week, a monumental feat for a band’s first single. The group’s second single 'I Love London' was released on Kitsuné in December 2009. The buzz resulted in the band being one of the Top 5 most blogged artists in the world
'Star of Love' is the name of the first album by Crystal Fighters. It was released to critical acclaim in the UK on 4 October 2010 via the band’s own label Zirkulo. The collection of songs explores the themes in singer Laure's grandfather's writings. Themes include the unfathomable mystery of the universe, the turbulent journey towards being at peace with death, the triumph of love, and the omnipotence of the sun. "Star Of Love" is actually an acronym for SOL, the Spanish word for “sun”.

Eya oh eya oh, eya oh ey
She was a wild child on the dance floor far away here
I was dragged into her spell
She came to me, an explosion of mystery
Was she real, I couldn't tell
Party all night, party all day, party all day-ay-ay
Party all night, party all day, party all day-ay-ay
She was a whirlwind blowing life into the party
Dancing me down the road to hell
She came to me and changed my whole story
My secret love, I couldn't tell
But okay she made me
Party all night, party all day, party all day-ay-ay
Party all night, party all day, party all day-ay-ay
She makes me feel like I could party all night
You can, you can, you can
Will she get there when the night turns to morning?
Be there to pick me up again, up again
Or take me down that path of destruction
No chance of getting home today
Okay she made me
Party all night, party all day, party all day-ay-ay
Party all night, party all day, party all day-ay-ay
She makes me feel like I could party all night
You can, you can, you can
Party all night, party all day, party all day-ay-ay
Party all night, party all day, party all day-ay-ay
She makes me feel like I could party all night
You can, you can, you can, you can
(Eya oh eya oh, eya oh ey)
Party all night, party all day, party all day-ay-ay
Party all night, party all day, party all day-ay-ay
Party all night, party all day, party all day-ay-ay
Party all night, party all day, party all day-ay-ay
She makes me feel like I could party all night
You can, you can, you can, you can
No stopping now, we move around and I was down to
Party all night, party all day, party all day-ay-ay
Party all night, party all day, party all day-ay-ay
Party all night, party all day, party all day-ay-ay
Party all night, party all day, party all day
