Undisputed masters of brain-altering, transcendent electronica, The Chemical Brothers (comprised of the duo of Tom Rowlands and Ed Simons), have been producing some of the world's greatest dance music for the better part of two decades. Their star hasn't stopped rising since their groundbreaking early albums changed the game altogether.
On their tight fourth full-length outing, 2002's Come With Us, The Chemical Brothers got back to their roots and the kinetic energy they made their name on. Simons noted, "The first three or four numbers do remind me of those days when we were so excited about putting together little grooves and beats – that whole cut-up era of hip-hop." Home to the trio of high octane singles "It Began in Afrika," "Star Guitar" and "Come with Us"/"The Test," and featuring Richard Ashcroft and Beth Orton as guest vocalists, the album debuted at No. 1 on the U.K. Albums Chart and immediately became one of the biggest releases of 2001.
The Chemical Brothers' first seven studio albums will again be available in the U.S. Each comes repackaged in the original sleeve artwork from the first pressings. Audio has been cut from the original lacquers directly from the studio of the original engineer, Mike Marsh, and is fully approved by The Chemical Brothers' Ed Simons and Tom Rowlands.
