The Crystal Method - Vegas

[gillenium]

I don't really understand all the Crystal Method hate either. My theory is that TCM was compared to the Chemical Brothers so much, Chems fans were like "TCM are not as good as the Chems..." and it just escalated from there. Many people seem to think TCM are the cheap U.S. knock-off of the Chems, when they actually aren't all that similar at all...

They were the reason I got into electronic music, and I think their impact on the genre is undeniable. That being said, they have been in a weird identity crisis for a couple of albums. They need to reconnect to their roots and give things another go. Vegas still sounds as ground-breaking to me now as it did when I first heard it!
