What Do You Think about CHEMICAL BROTHERS? . I think some songs are interesting. . A particular song that I like is track 2, "UNDER THE INFLUENCE" from last album "SURRENDER". Listen it. Do You Hate CHEMICAL BROTHERS? Do You Like CHEMICAL BROTHERS? Are boring? Are funny? Tell me... \/\/()()Æ’ER |

Chemical Brothers are IMO beyond average, not bad, bot far from great. To me its techno for the masses, just like that Daft Punk baloney, excepth Chemical Brothers are far better then Daft Punk. |

i agree with PostModernVancouver, their first album has got to be the best, then they became even more techno/dance/breakbeat for the masses, but they are very talented musicians |

Having got all the albums, i obviously really like em. The earlier u go back the better. Exit Planet Dust is brilliant, (fast pace), Dig ur own hole is also good, (complete mix of fast hard slow and melodic stuff), surrender is not so outstanding, (more slow stuff, a bit too hippy, which is ok, but only on rare occasions). |

I personally like the Chemical Brothers. I like Surrender a lot, but that's largely because I'm a hippie at heart. The other thing is, I like Daft Punk. The thing is that they don't take themselves seriously, neither should you. "One More Time" is supposed to be a self-parody. It's an overdone pop song that was FUN. It's a satire. "Harder, Better, Faster, Stronger" is a good song. If you get it off Napster be sure to get the 3:45 or so version. All of that said, I like Aphex more than either the Chemicals or Daft Punk.

i think thier music is boring old pants these days, too commercial for my tastes. when the 24th century sky ep came out, it was totally fresh and blew me away (chemical beats -1993ish i think), but it went down hill from there, wich was due to alot of people jumping on the band wagon (fat boy git). |

I HATE ANY ARTIST WHO's WHOLE ALBUM CONSISTS OF "thump, thump, thump, thump" on the bass drum. THAT SHIT IS SO FUCKING BORING, DON'T MUSICIANS KNOW HOW TO PROGRAM A LITTLE BETTER DRUM STYLES? |

The Chenical Brothers are alright I suppose. I enjoy their older stuff like Exit Planet Dust and shit. But their new stuff is not really my thing. As for Daft Punk their new album is crappy, and Homework is alright. Some tracks are good, while others suck major ass. |

Dammit, I know I'm gonna make myself unpopular on this board, but Daft Punk do not suck. If you listen to the whole new album you'll find that they kick ass. You've probably only heard the song "One More Time". I know it's crap. I know it's pop. SO DO THEY. It was more or less a joke. They've said so. It is a PARODY of people like Cher who try to come in and make pop music using the electronic style. Notice how overdone the vocals are? "Tonight-ah!" You didn't laugh at that? I know I did. Chill out, they don't suck. This new album is probably as good as Homework, but don't hold me to that. |

Chemical Borhters have some really good stuff [in my opinion] and Daft Punks first album is so so stuff.. like a 6 outta ten..or 5. not too good.. but alright :].. Discovery.. which I have.. is not good at all.. maybe a few good tracks.. but otherwise no!.. if you want something good kinda like Cemical Brothers sorta... then check out Deejay Punk-Roc |

the track dig your own hole of the CD dig your own hole (IMHO the best CD) is wicked funky wah bass thoomping. I dont like exit planet dust that much.....song to the siren is dodgy i reckon. The 1st 2 tracks are good tho. they are the dudes who got me into techno and music writing :) |

I like DAFT PUNK. I have the album HOMEWORK and I'll get DISCOVERY. The track 4 from "HOMEWORK" is great! I hate the song "ONE MORE TIME", everytime I listen it I change channel, but I know that it's only like a joke, the whole album is different. Now, I ask to this community: If is it better the album HOMEWORK or DISCOVERY? wooÆ’erAttack!!! |

I'm a pretty big chemical brothers fan, I've got surrender, dig your own hole, and I'll be getting exit planet dust soon, If you can ignore the stupid tracks that they make they are quite good, but unfortunately they do occassionally put out some really shite tracks,(hey boy hey girl) but all up I think they are quite good |

The Chemical Brothers do in fact suck live. Though I do like their second album. I like Daft Punk old and new. Why? Just for the cheese. The styles of these bands are so different though. They're not even in the same categories as far as I'm concerned. Aphex Twin on the other hand has so much more depth, and is in a league of his own. |

I'm telling you guys, why respect any artist who's whole album is only "thump, thump, thump, thump" on the bass drum? THAT IS SHITTY TECHNO RIGHT THERE. SHITTY TECHNO=DAFT PUNK |

if you think that all of there songs have boring drums listen to "let forever be" and "orange wedge",.. It's obvious that you haven't heard much of their "non-pop" stuff, and while you're at it, have a listen to "the private psychadelic reel", top stuff!!! |

I was talking about DAFT PUNK... I think Chemical Brothers kick ass personally. I enjoy Surrender, especially the extra-bonus tracks, I think the one I enjoy the most is Out Of Control (Sasha Remix) or something like that... the 10:54 one |

Quoth, your're talking out of your small minded ass, shit man, you sound like a blinkered old fool, how old are you 70ish?. Admittedly there is alot of shite 'thump thump' music, but also there is some amazing 'thump thump' music out there, like daft punk 'homework' for instance. |

About "Thump Thump" I'm agree with Griffiths. There's a lot of difference. I think Chemical Brothers are better than Daft Punk, but Homework was an interesting album. I have also "XTRMNTR, last album from Primal Scream". It has "Thump Thump" but I like it, too. Especially the tracks 1&3 (similiar to Massive Attack style) and the song "Swastika eyes (Chemical Brothers RMX)". CLASSICS from RDJ has some songs with "Thump Thump" but I like it, too. However RDJ is much better than Chemical Brothers, Daft Punk AND Primal Scream. There isn't story! \/\/ooÆ’eeeeeeer |

old and new daft punk alright, old and new chems alright---the problem with both of them is that they never got on to the 21st century. Now, this might sound like facetious criticism, but I do believe that the new Daft Punk is absolutely underprocessed, mildly recycled, old-new rubbish. I only like, sorta, Prime Time of Your Life. The two singles, Technologique and Robot Rock, make me want to hate them real bad... But I resist, since I've given them the benefit of the doubt before. But the next album's gotta pick up on some new vibes! >:| The new chems is definitely their worst as well... These 90's dudes just aren't top notch anymore. Reminds me of Kraftwerk with their Expo 2000: recycled sounds, yet again, yet again, yet again. I do confess to having liked the Chemical Brothers in the past, but their new stuff is boring-boring-boring, just like the new Fatboy Slim. Even the last Orbital album was hardly of immortal caliber. (Still it's best of the bunch mentioned here.) Yes, so if the next Underworld album sucks, I'm gonna be singing requiem for these 1990's innovators. :0 |

i just have Dig Your Own Hole in mp3 so far, i used to like it except from It Doesn't Matter, Don't Stop The Rock, Get Up On It Like This and Lost In The K-Hole but now i like them all a lot : ) so i'm thinking of buying it as well as Exit Planet Dust maybe. and maybe i will buy the Propellerheads album as well, since all three are at a low price at some place right now. |

The music resonse double 12" is good, its got a couple of remixes and a wicked song called Freak of the week. I listened to it at the weekend while I was doing some work and forgot how good it is....in a DM kinda way, i.e not IDM, but who cares, its all good. |

I'm gunna see them at the V festival this year, so I'll tell you if theyre any good live or if they play all their modern rubbish. |

i already have Dig Your Own Hole, would you rather recommend Exit Planet Dust or Come With Us as a second album? |
||||||||
|
|

| |||||||||
|
|
hmm.. both the albums are good but i chose Exit Planet Dust. |
||||||||
|
|

| |||||||||
|
|
thanks : ) do both albums have the same style or did they "evolve"/change? |
||||||||

different style. |

i use to love them ; i own all their album except "push the button" ; i admit that thei musical quality as decreased within the albums ; nevertheless some tracks remain very good on "come with us", whereas there aren't on "push the button" imo nowadays i'm a bit bored with them ; but for me they remain alright for listening while doing something else (for instance playing PS2) |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i recommend Exit Planet Dust, it's far far better imo ; i also prefer Surrender to Come with us ; CWU with has some good tracks but a lot of weak ones |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
pretty good |
||||||||
|
|

I love seeing old posts with me in it. dig your own hole is my vote for best, closely rivalled by surrender. |

|

surrender is my fav, track2 is very good |
