CHEMICAL BROTHERS - We Are
The Night
Following their fourth consecutive number 1 album, the
double Grammy winning 'Push The Button', The Chemical Brothers return
with their sixth long player. 'We Are The Night' is The Chemical Brothers
finest record yet, twelve tracks of psychedelic warehouse party acid
music, euphorically melodic and as uncompromising as their retina scorching
live shows.
Recorded undercover 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 2005's '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. The duo
recently sneaked out an album preview (the anonymously released ultra
limited 'Electronic Battle Weapon' 8 & 9). Much of the record has
been tested out on dancefloors across the world during the past twelve
months.
