Those Poor Old Chemicals...

You've gotta feel a bit sorry for the Chemical Brothers havent you, it seems they're desperatly trying to pull away from the commercial scene by producing some of the most fcuked up acid breakbeats known to man. Instead, the reverse has happened, Radio 1 are lapping up everything they do, more than ever! They could record themselves taking a shit and it'd be a top 10 hit! I bought their first album back when no-one gave a fcuk about them, If an unknown artist started churning this stuff out it would be written off as shit. Its a funny old world isnt it...

I bought the first two albums, the third seemed a bit too indie-style for me, this one is just far out there maaaan!!!! I find it funny how the chart patrol are loving it!! Just like they did with Underworld's Born Slippy. Mind you, Trainspotting may have had something to do with that..! Cool

Chemical Bro's have gone downhill big time!

their first 2 albums were by fasr the best, their third had some classics on it like Hey boy hey gir and Out of control but their latest offering is terrible
Afrika has been overplayed to death by everyone Sad

Oh well, it seems all that arse kissing from Radio 1 has paid off, they notched up there 14th UK Top 40 hit last night! At least there getting paid to have there bums commercially licked! Laughing
