11 years and 8 million albums since bursting out of the UK's underground club culture, The Chemical Brothers are back. With their fifth studio album, Push the Button, Tom Rowlands and Ed Simons once again demonstrate that, when it comes to beat-based innovation, inspired collaboration and sheer sonic excellence, they are matchless. The first single "Galvanize" is a Middle Eastern-flavored juggernaut, featuring A Tribe Called Quest legend Q-Tip. Defying expectations and reinvigorating music are what the brothers do best -- and this album proves it yet again. Push The Button will be released on January 25, 2005. The single is available now on ITMS. It's also available for free (albeit only at 64 kbps) at The Chemical Brothers web site. (You have to enable pop-ups to use the site.) |
