The Chemical Brothers: Remixes



It has been a strange year for the Chemical Brothers fans seeing them playing to packed crowds all year yet there was no studio release from the legendary duo, and bizarrely they released their second Best-Of in four years, Brotherhood. Hot on the heels of this however, comes The Chemical Brothers: Remixes. While some fans may feel a little ripped off as nearly half the tracks were on The Remixes Volume 06 in 2005, this aside I really like the latest addition to the Chemical’s discography. Whilst I haven’t been too impressed by more recent studio albums by the Chemicals, this album for me was like rediscovering an old friend.

the track list on the Late Night Tales CD looks alright

be interested to hear what the Chems is like, although i haven't really liked any of their shit since Dig Your Own Hole, some of them Battle Weapons they did were alright though

The reviews are good. To bad about the chems, they're a bit top heavy on the bollocks scale.
