new chemical brothers album and tour

[gambit]

Um, I just figured Tom and adam were shooting the shit with each other.

[mmm skyscraper]

I wish they made still made stuff like My Mercury Mouth. That's a good track.

"we are the night" at number 1.

its really nice to see that they're still popular. i like the new album. i think they changed the way of doing things. as an old new order fan, these synths reminds me "tecnique" a lot, i still like the way they cut a song from original 12 inch - like all the early new order 12 inches -

i had a feeling that many interesting tracks will come as b side.

All Rights Reversed rocks my sox.

piss-weak effort imo. lots of chemical-brothers-by-numbers.

'the salmon dance' is a fucking insult.

i suppose it's better than their last album; but that set the bar pretty low.last track's pretty nice; but there's an awful lot of dross to wade through to get there. very, very disappointing.

Oooh.

Salmon Dance is the next single - hahahaha

Ditto. Really really grew on me. Pretty damn surprised actually.

"A Modern Midnight Conversation" is the official treadmill theme song of the year!

This album is not the Chem's best but it's far from terrible.

Out today in the US, can't wait to pick it up.

You're right, it isn't their best. It's actually their worst!
Yup, release day in the States. First CB's album i haven't preordered or picked up release day since, oh, Dig Your Own Hole...makes me sad.

Is "Salmon Dance" really going to be the second single? What radio station's gonna play that? I think the Dr. Demento parody program has been off the air for quite a while...

well - I just got the album today... I did download the tracks a while back, but decided not to listen to it too much - or at all as it got close to the album release date, so it'd still be somewhat 'fresh'

I will say that it can't be their worst album, as it has at least two good tracks on it (unlike Push the Button)

[edit]
ok wait...

are you guys on crazy pills or something?????

while - no, this isn't their BEST work ('surrender' in my opinion) but this certainly is UMPTEEN times better than "Push the Button"

and you know what? I'd even go as far as to say that the Salmon Dance is better than a good bulk of ptb
