Editorial Review: Amazon.com: Besides Tom Rolands and Ed Simons of the Chemical Brothers, few artists have the clout, chops, and DJ wherewithal to change the landscape of dance music. Still, it's not something the duo seems in a particular hurry to do. Since the release of the now-classic Exit Planet Dust, an intensely groove-able rap-stomp hodgepodge, and Dig Your Own Hole, their 1997 breakout record, big beat has been eating itself in a commercialized frat-boy frenzy. Yet the Brothers haven't found--or even really tried to find--that Something Else to turn the masses on in a different, exciting direction. True, their last full-length, Surrender, found them incorporating a house-ier feel, mixing a retro aesthetic with four-on-the-floor beats, but it was really the same old batch of clever samples and rolling thumps. Which wasn't necessarily a bad thing; most of us have happily run in place right along with them. Come with Us also finds them pulling all the usual tricks; there's an irresistible dance-floor anthem or two ("Star Guitar," "Denmark"), swooping keyboard tricks ("Come with Us"), guest vocalists (Beth Orton, Richard Ashcroft), and the amazing fluidity that allows a moody song like Orton's "The State We're In" to sound perfectly, logically in its place. While it sounds like they're coasting, their refined, sugary formula is so sweet, it's hard to complain. --Matthew Cooke Customer Reviews
Average Rating:
 Rating:  - GREATEST ALBUM IN THE HISTORY OF POPULAR MUSICThe Chemical Brother's masterwork, Come With Us, deserves the Nobel Prize if only one were given for useful contemporary popular music. CWU is a CONCEPT album about GENETIC ENLIGHTENMENT. Getting the subtext and understanding how the tracks cohere requires that it be understood as a companion piece to the work of Zecharia Sitchin, particularly THE 12TH PLANET. CWU is one of the seminal cultural creations of the early 21st century, the "Rite of Spring" of our time Come with us. We see the light. Bright and clear. Rating: - Go with ThemA lot of mixed reviews on this album by The Chemical Brothers. That always seems to happen when an artist(s)'s sound and/or style changes even slightly. This is the case with "Come with Us". Unmistakeably by The Chemical Brothers, but unmistakeably a different feel than all their previous albums. I don't consider any of the ten tracks to be flops, but at the same time, only a couple are really great. "Star Guitar" and "The State We're In" are my top selections from this better than average effort by the infamous Brothers of electronica. Despite this, I'm still very satisfied that I have it in my collection. 3.5/5 stars. Rating: - For God's sake it's not a DJ set, it's your album--don't mix the tracks!I just can't understand why you would mix the tracks on your album. I admit it sounds fluid when listening to the album sequentially, but if you want to take any of the tracks out of order? Put them on your mp3 player perhaps? Well you can buy the cd-singles, but what about the tracks that aren't released as singles? It's just so homo to mix your album. Other than that I was pretty impressed having never heard anything from The Chemical Brothers before. My favorites are 'Star Guitar', 'Come with Us', 'My Elastic Eye', and 'The State We're In'. 'Come with Us' has to be the most high energy track on the album with it's electro sounds reminiscent of an arcade pinball machine or something. Love it. Rating: - passed the testif chemical brothers can beat their own efforts with "Let forever be," the result would be "the test." Ashcroft combines the best of the verve sound with the rocking beats of the chemical brothers. the first three songs are killers as well and the album has an even feel to it making it well worth the price. buy it Rating: - A good Chemical Compound!I nearlly own all the albums of the brothers but for me this one is one of their best albums... A combination of incredible tracks... If you are a Brother's fan, I really recommend it to you ... |
