Details: Product Description International top sellers, The Chemical Brothers have sold over 1.5 million in just the US and "Setting Sun" and "Block Rockin' Beats" are still modern rock staples ("Block Rockin Beats" video is a Grammy winner). Yet another breakthrough record for The Chemical Brothers, Surrender combines their rock, electronics and beats with a new pop dimension, and vocalists include Noel Gallagher (Oasis), Bernard Sumner (New Order) and Hope Sandoval (Mazzy Star). 1st single/video: "Let Forever Be." Amazon.ca The Chemical Brothers released their third album with their status as one of the UK's most exciting bands unassailable. Surrender, managed to enhance their already burgeoning reputation, drawing on the talents of a formidable array of celebrity collaborators including Missy Elliott, Oasis' Noel Gallagher and Bernard Sumner. The Brothers shifted their attention away from hip-hop breaks towards more traditional 4/4 beats, but their unique blend of visceral energy, inventive melodies and eclectic samples remained unaffected. "Out Of Control", featuring the fragile vocals of Sumner, sounds like New Order on stronger drugs, before erupting into a groovy, guitar-studded monster not dissimilar to many of Underworld's offerings. The fairytale chords and Oriental chimes of "Sunshine Underground" provide a refreshing change in direction, while Mercury Rev's Jonathan Donahue makes a refreshing appearance on the psychedelic rock finale, "Dream On". Surrender is a deeply satisfying album from a band that grows from strength to strength. --Ed Potton
