Their sophomore album entitled Cave Rave was released 27 May 2013. Crystal Fighters’ second album is called Cave Rave; the name of the album comes from the ancient European times when people were documenting creative experiences in caves. The album was recorded in Los Angeles and was set for release on 27 May 2013. The band call the Basque hills their “spiritual home and a great influence for the new album”; Basque mythology sparked interest in the band to pick up more exotic instruments from Africa and South America and use them all over the record.

On 18 February, they announced the release of Cave Rave, a larger tour in Europe and a tour across North America, and posted a full song called “Separator” on YouTube.

The song was debuted on BBC Radio 1′s Zane Lowe show as the “Hottest Record In The World”. Subsequently it has been added to BBC Radio 1′s playlist and 3FM in Holland’s playlist as Megahit. The video was directed by Elliot Sellers and was premiered on Vice Noisey. Sunless 97 remix was premiered on The Fader, and Gigamesh remix was premiered on Vibe. The album was produced by Justin Meldal-Johnson, and mixed by Manny Marroquin in LA. When asked about their sound, the band replied it is “a meeting of old and new, human and robotic”. Wikipedia®.

Crystal Fighters – Wave Lyrics:
We’re here on our way
Hear the same groove
Get on the wave, universal suns
One thousand suns
With the power of one thousand universes from the mind of one

In the galaxy of truth, your stars are hours
Your heart is a sun in the depths of a month
The space is on France, there’s gravity inside
We’re in the universe, I’m on my way

We’re riding on a wave babe
We’re on the same wave
We’re on our way
We’re flying on a wave babe
We’re on the same wave
We’re on our way babe
We’re on the same wave

Now the world’s in motion, now my body feels
Moving through oceans on the earth beneath
Oh universal feelings, all stars explode
And keep us floating for the flight to come

In the galaxy of truth, your stars are hours
Your heart is a sun in the depths of a month
The space is on France, there’s gravity inside
We’re in the universe, I’m on my way

We’re riding on a wave babe
We’re on the same wave
We’re on our way
We’re flying on a wave babe
We’re on the same wave
We’re on our way babe

We’re on a wave. We’re on a wave.

A universal body, the garden of light
Of weakening spirits slipping deep inside
The back way to your heart, skipping stones in the sunlight
Time flies by, just be alive

We’re riding on a wave babe.
We’re on the same wave.
We’re on our way.
We’re flying on a wave babe.
We’re on the same wave.
We’re on our way babe.
We’re on the same wave.
We’re on our way babe.
We’re on the same wave.
