Hear hear. Salmon Dance is the single worst Chems piece I've ever heard.

And yeah as I've said on many an occasion, I welcome new albums in circumstances like this because it means a tour.

nah - silly doesn't always mean shit

I mean... take the Digital Underground's "The Humpty Dance"
key lyric - "I once got busy in a burger king bathroom"

I'd rather take stuff like that than
"cause there's a party over here, so you might as well be here, where the people care"

Re: new chemical brothers album and tour
 

difference, the humpty dance is good. and the salmon dance sucks so much that it hurts people that haven't even heard it yet

Re: new chemical brothers album and tour
 

Well, even though i told myself not to, i'm a Chemuical brothers completist to this point, so i broke down and bought "We Are the Night" last week.:eek:

It is actually growing on me, and on repeated listens, i am finding it more enjoyable, or at least less offputting than Push the Button. :p

I'm even making it through "Salmon Dance" without FFW, but mostly just to laugh at how ridiculous it is. Some of the Sammy the Salomn and Fatlip dialog is just too goofy. But the rap and the atari melody are still lame.

I find i am really enjoying the faux-live feel of "We Are the Night" and the nice builds of "Saturate", "Burst Generator" and parts of "Modern Midnight Conversation" (could do without the latter's disco queen vocal, though).
Still, it's a shame the last two records, and even the new tracks for the 1993-03 collection have taken a while to grow on me and more than a handful of track are just unenjoyable to me. Sad, because i'm the guy with the Chemical Brothers bumper sticker on his auto and still getting big grins from the first 4 records.
