Possibly, possibly.



But that doesn't change the fact that I find the unknown scary.

I don't know why I even participate in the 'UPCOMING ALBUM' hype and hysteria, really.



The Brothers will make an album, whirly will buy it, I'll take a bunch of drugs, listen to it, and say 'wow'.



It's not like I've ever listened to a Chems album in a state that's conducive to actual thoughtful musical criticism....



OMG, what if the Chemical Brothers really suck, but I've just been too high to notice all these years?



No, wait, that can't be true, even loaded I must have some standards... for instance, I've never been so high I enjoyed Daft Punk.

He, is hip hop artist. he got kicked out of the group Pharcyde cause he was doing too much coke.



I wouldnt have guessed for any of these groups/artists to colaberate with the chemical brothers. We're in for a suprise!



Im glad to see they are still working with some hip-hop artists, I think the Brothers have alot of potential to put out a bangin' hip hop track (sorry, I didnt think Galvanize was that bangin' :( )

Just as long as the collaborations are not done just for the sake of having collaborations. I suspect a part of the fear surrounding collaborations is from the experience that two artists from different 'scene' backgrounds just try to fuse their own styles together instead of trying to make something totally new. At times it works very nicely, at times the results sound like overstressed mashups. I think the chems have a pretty good track record so far with the collabs.



Hey only a few weeks to go until the single hits the radiowaves! It's surprisingly soon, looks like I was able to avoid the hype ...until now! 8)

Galvanize is one of those tracks that non-chem fans love. I can listen to the chems in the car and flip it to that knowing it works like giving a baby a toy when there fussin'



Thought GYH was pure sex... Really good chem hip-hop tracks are good when they're fast. Though galvanize was too slow, especially for the live shows. It was the slowest track on the last set at 104, which is the same tempo as songs like Kling or Piku/Playground (
