Chemical Brothers.....

yer i do agree...i wish it was just chemical brothers through and through....i feel that they have tried to put a range of bits in there just to be in with what is going around today, which is good as they obviously want to sell records...but its a shame that they wernt genuine...if you know what i mean??

Still love the album though!

i am fucking LOVING the new album.

there's a remix the salmon song competition being held by the chemical brothers myspace page. boy am i glad i added them a couple of days ago. they provide the source sounds in a zip file.

actually, if the mods don't mind, i'm going to start a new thread asking bler's to make a remix. we can have our own remix comp!

http://www.thechemicalbrothers.com/home/

23-06-2008 // Following their fifth consecutive number 1 album last year, the Grammy award winning ‘We Are The Night’, The Chemical Brothers return with ‘Brotherhood’ a best of collection with a kick and a twist, set for release on 1st September 2008.

The Chemical Brothers have established themselves as true pioneers of electronic music and have become one of the most popular dance acts of all time. Now seems the perfect time to take stock of their seminal output with the double disc celebration that is Brotherhood.

Brotherhood comprises of 2 discs, the first is a collection of 13 undeniable benchmark Singles from the band's immense back catalogue and new track ‘Keep My Composure’ which features the shimmering flow of Baltimore’s Spank Rock.

The 2nd will feature exclusively Electronic Battle Weapons 1-10. Since 1996 Electronic Battle Weapons have acted as the laboratories for The Chems devious musical experiments and laid the rhythmic and melodic foundations for numerous tracks as well as providing some of the duos most formidable mixes. Until now Electronic Battle Weapons 1-9 have only been available on various limited formats and this is the first time they have been widely available.

Brotherhood will be preceded by the digital download single Midnight Madness on 4th August 2008. Derived and developed from Electronic Battle Weapons 10, Midnight Madness is The Chemical Brothers at their most infectious, euphoric, report to the dancefloor best.

OMFG is it september yet? :!

the single midnight madness is getting some airplay in the UK, and it's ace. can't wait for this to come out. :D

crap quality taping of the single: http://uk.youtube.com/watch?v=BWlo_paNvoQ
 
Was "we are the night" any good?

I abandoned them completely after "push the button", and the aural molestation that was "the salmon dance".
 
with the exception of a couple of complete clunkers (e.g. the salmon dance) 'we are the night' is great.

it's odd but i have a couple of friends who think 'the salmon dance' is great.

my favourite track is probably 'das spiegel'

we'll float... up... stream

salmon dance was fucking awesome.

plus the various remixes. too drunk to give youtube links right now, but trust me on that. look for the fishies video on youtube. :)

i have documented my opinions on the WATN album in this very thread. don't make me repeat myself squiddy or i'll get very angry.
 
Its video was also nominated for a MTV Europe Music Award in 2007 by artist Snoop Dogg, when he said "..And they just dancing like salmon is da shit."

haha <3 the The Herve Remix

got a fatty 'b-side' pack. b-sides(duh) and electronic battle weapons 1-10.. wooot
 
"A couple of clunkers" totally ruin an album for me. If you can't get 9 or 10 decent tracks on an album, don't release the cunt!
 
it's just one man's opinion. felix loved that track :)
