...America by the big beat sound seems complete, even if record companies still insist on referring to it as "electronica." It would have been easy for its inventors to once again mix up rock sounds and dance beats and recreate their success. The Chemical Brothers' (a.k.a. Tom Rowlands and Ed Simons) third full album, however, moves away from the through-the-roof lager madness of Dig Your Own Hole to a more house-based sound, one that's perhaps less accessible than their earlier rocktinged efforts.

And like the songs' subjects, fans who once dreamed of escaping their parents, phys-ed teachers and "towns full of losers" worry about the kind of world they will be leaving their children...
...live in an apartment that makes Biosphere 2 look like J.D. Salinger's house. I think I was willing to make that sacrifice because I saw an opportunity for ultimate fame. Not being famous for hitting home runs or getting my breasts reduced but simply for being me. Ed McMahon kind of fame...
