Advantages: See above

Disadvantages: It's only one CD - I want more!

This album is like no other. A superb collection of tunes ranging from the ear-tinglingly-fantastic to the banging complete the Chemical Brother's third album. If you like house, trance, even indie and progressive, then you'll love this album.

There are very few people who wouldn't appreciate something of this as it really is cross-genre stuff and it is fantastic to listen to. It has the very distinctive stlye of the Chemical Brother's attatched to it - very acid synth sounding, with lovely bass lines and sound effects coupled with some great lyrics on some tracks (even one half of Oasis gives us a lyrical performace, "Let forever Be", which many people will recall as soon as they hear it).

Some of the tracks have an almost haunting value to them, others a real ability to make the hair on the back of your neck really stand up. All in all, it's a very diverse sound - no one description could encapsulate all of the various sounds contained on this lovely cd.

It's an album worthy of anyone's collection - a must have for those who appreciate superb, but unusual music. The sound of the Chemical Brothers - for a Chemical Generation =)
