The Chemical Brothers - Exit Planet Dust (BMG) CD £13.99
Bit of a break from the norm, and for all of you contemplating to
drop this fanzine on the ground before running away very quickly...
Don't! I still reckon that this band is excellent, despite all the
"Kill Synthetic Music" buzz that's making the rounds t the mo.
Been there, Done that, Opened my mind.... I still loathe Dance
and all, but this kind of music shares the same basics that I
love in Music, thumping bass, good drums and a catchy tune that
throttles your head until you start humming/ whistling/ grunting
it on the bus or wherever, which is what makes me like this band.
I know a good few people who into bands like these but are too
embarrased to admit it, after just giving a long speech about
"Xworx E-Heads". Anyway, the band... F**king excellent tunes
and nice to see that they haven't used too many samples which
lets too many tunes of this genre down. £14 might be a bit too
much for most people, but hey! It's Christmas!
