New Artist LP From The Chemical Brothers

00:21 - April 1, 2010

by davehart

Just a few days from the news that Chicane will be releasing a new artist album this year another of dance music's most prestigious figures announce they will have a new artist album coming out this Summer. The Chemical Brothers are back with a bang after almost three years without a new album, not counting the 'Broitherhood' best off release, they are to return for 2010 with a brand new long player. It’s fantastic news as they have released some of the greatest albums in electronic dance music history and continue to push the boundaries of their own sound and the scene to new levels. Their 'live' shows are something of an audio and visual delight and those who have graced them with their attendance over the years will testify to that.

From the makers of all time acid rave classics like 'Exit Planet Dust' and the superb 'Surrender' comes their brand new album 'Further'. Their last album 'We Are The Night' came out back in 2007 and yet again saw Tom & Ed drop straight into the UK chart at number 1, lets hope they do it for a sixth time running.

It starts with what sounds like an alien morse code transmission; Earth bound signals bouncing off the side of orbiting space debris. Snatches of voices found out in the ether cut through the machine fog, drifting across burbling analogue equipment lovingly kept working long after supposed sell-by date. By the time the click and thump of snare and bass drum arrive, the sounds are all-encompassing, swirling around you with dizzying, disorientating effect. Noises come untethered by constraints of volume, seemingly leaping from the speakers with a life of their own. For a band used to dealing in psychedelics, this time round The Chemical Brothers have really pushed the proverbial envelope.

The Chemical Brothers release their seventh studio album, "Further", in June 2010. This album is the band's first to be released with corresponding films made specifically to match each of the 8 audio tracks.

Nearly three years on from the release of their fifth consecutive UK Number 1 "We Are The Night", "Further" sees Tom Rowlands and Ed Simons explore the boundless possibilities of their sound. Taking a trip through four decades of electronic noise, Tom & Ed have taken the template set up with their occasional "Electronic Battle Weapon" releases and allowed them to mutate gloriously into an entire album. Voice samples and snatches of vocals are woven through tracks to create a record that ebbs and flows like one of the band's legendary live sets. Here, West Coast power pop harmonies sit beside German Motorik rhythms while Valentines-esque sonic manipulations plane across the top of early house basslines. "Further" is the culmination of nearly two decades of psychedelic exploration, an immersive collection that finds The Chemical Brothers at their least-restrained and most-melodic best.

As well as an eight-track album, "Further" is the band's first proper partnership with long-time visuals collaborators Adam Smith and Marcus Lyall. Now as respected TV and film director (recently having completed the first episode of the forthcoming series of Doctor Who) Adam - aka Flat Nose George - has been responsible for creating the visual backdrop for every Chemical Brothers gig since their live debut in 1994. Visuals for "Further" have been created to correspond with each track on the album and have been planned during the recording of the record.

The band's four shows running from the 20th - 23rd May at the Roundhouse (which sold out in record time) and gigs at Sonar Festival and selected festivals in Europe will see the band play the album and Smith and Lyall's new films in their entirety. These will only be seen in sequence at those gigs. The Roundhouse shows will be the first chance to hear the album anywhere. After the gigs, the films will feature on a special edition DVD release and on iTunes LP.

I'm looking forward to this one immensely and any sniff of an audio clip with their new tracks will be passed on in due coarse. As with any new album, I'm sure the boys will be on tour this year promoting so keep posted on their site for news on tour dates and fresh gigs. The album will be dropping in June, not sure what day but as soon as we find out more we'll let you know!
