Their latest track Midnight Madness is a real killer. They're coming out with a "best of" compilation called "Brotherhood" if anyone is looking for a place to start. but yeah, these guys are amazing. Take some acid and listen to Surrender. Or dont take any acid. Either way, Chemical Brothers are a trip, and I recomend them to anyone.

Anyone have any favorite tracks by them?

Their first release Exit Planet Dust is one of the most perfect, spot on, greatest first releases by anyone.
It was without flaw from beginning to end.

I love all of their stuff, their last one We Are The NIght was a really good one also.
Proof that they've still got it after all these years now.

I only got to see them live once, November of '97 in Chicago.

I was lucky enough to see them in 1999 in Dallas, with GA tix. By far the most fun I've had at a concert ever, even though I'm sure I was the only person in GA that wasn't high on *something.*

My favorite album is Surrender... was a bit disappointed by We Are The Night.

I think Surrender is awesome, so many songs I love:
Asleep From Day, Let Forever Be, Out of Control, Hey Boy Hey Girl...

"Exit Planet Dust", "Dig Your Own Hole" (my personal favourite) and "Surrender" probably work better as whole albums, but the Chems are a great singles band. So many fantastic tracks... I still don't think they've topped "The Private Psychedelic Reel" yet.

I can't help remembering this old quote from Trent: "And the Chemical Brothers? "Again, I like them, but 'Block Rockin' Beats' has the stiffest groove I've ever heard in my life!" he exclaims. "It screams to me, 'We're English, we're white and we're playing a funk song!'."

I love them but I'm so disappointed with "We are the night", am I the only one ?

I thought I would throw the CD to the trash sad smiley

Yeah dude, agreed there. We Are The Night just didn't do it for me, Burst Generator is okay but the whole album just isn't up to scratch.

I don't think they needed to put out another Best Of so soon - bit of a cash in. No The Private Psychedelic Reel this time either.

THE TEST (THE ACID TEST) F. This Richard Ashcroft Guy! YAY! The thing almost gives me flashbacks. And superstar d.j.'s (hey boy hey girl)sorta and the other one that was really popular on the radio, um...what was it? Block Rockin Beats. That's all.
