The singles was a good point in there career to reflect on the past and show a bit of what good stuff is to come. Personally I love GYH its one of there best live tracks.

PTB is a very diverse album and Ed and Tom wanted this to show that they do not just write club music that appeals to a small group, instead writeing an album with lots of different styles with cool guests such as Tim Burgess in the boxer and the then up and coming Magic Numbers in the delightfull Close Your Eyes. My fave tracks on PTB include Come Inside, The Big Jump, Left Right and Surface To Air.

But if your looking for a more underground chems album its gonna be worth checking out there next rumored project which will be a darker album with lots of dirty club music. They have also been playing two new tracks in there live sets recentally which could be part of the electronic battle weapon series.

Also worth checking out is Live 05 download that includes tracks from this year. Or if your really up for it then there playing tonight at turnmills(Im going!).
Nice response. You don't happen to work for Astralwerks, do you?
