| Its been three long
years since the Chemical Brothers unmistakable brand of electronic insanity
gripped the nation.
Five albums, three Grammy Awards, countless hit singles and some nine million album sales later, the Chemical Brothers bring their explosive new live show to Australia. The sensory overload that is the Chemical Brothers live experience was launched at the world famous Glastonbury Festival earlier this year. The closing set left punters and media alike astounded at the sheer scale and epic spectacle of the Chemicals mind blowing audio-visual assault. Following Glasto, the band have rocked Fuji Rock Festival in Japan, Montreax Jazz Festival, The Summercase Festivals in Spain and have appearances scheduled at Bestival, Electric Picnic Ireland, Creamfields UK, not one but three Brixton Academys and a huge show in Londons Trafalgar Square, amongst many others, before arriving to Australia in March 2008. I just feel its a blessing to be able to do something which gets people out of their homes and experiencing something together, says Ed. When you play live and see a sea of people with their hands in their air, smiling, thats what I feel most proud of: making music that is loud and powerful enough to bring people together. To get an advanced preview of the Chemicals juggernaut as it rolls toward Australia, check out their Glastonbury live set in four parts below: Part 1: Part 2: Part 3: We Are The Night, featuring the hit singles Do It Again and Salmon Dance is without doubt The Chemical Brothers finest record yet, featuring twelve tracks of psychedelic warehouse party acid music, euphorically melodic and as uncompromising as their retina scorching live shows. Its the fifth studio album from the Chemical Brothers, all of which have hit the number 1 position in the UK at release. Recorded under the cover of darkness in a bombproof bunker in South London, We Are The Night is a route map through modern psychedelia.Effortlessly evoking the dancefloors of Manchester and Minneapolis in the early 80s and London of 2007, this is The Chemical Brothers at their very best. Infectious from the ominous opening through to the gorgeous dying embers, the record features some of their most mind-blowing music to date, a massive step up for the duo in terms of both production and sound. The album builds on the band's immense back catalogue and reaffirms them as true pioneers of electronic music, a band who are consistently hugely successful both critically and commercially. We Are The Night follows on from 2005s Push The Button, which featured the huge single Galvanize, the most played record on Radio One of that year. As is often the way with Chemical Brothers records, it achieved a life of its own, soundtracking everything from South American raves to the Notting Hill Carnival and all points in between.
