THE CHEMICAL BROTHERS SET TO RELEASE NEW ALBUM “FURTHER”

The Chemical Brothers are set to release their seventh studio album in June. Nearly three years on from the release of their Grammy Award winning and fifth consecutive UK Number 1 album "We Are The Night", "Further" sees Tom Rowlands and Ed Simons explore the boundless possibilities of their sound.

Taking a trip through four decades of electronic noise, Tom & Ed have taken the template set up with their occasional "Electronic Battle Weapon" releases and allowed them to mutate gloriously into an entire album. Voice samples and snatches of vocals are woven through tracks to create a record that ebbs and flows like one of the band's legendary live sets.

Here, West Coast power pop harmonies sit beside German Motorik rhythms while My Bloody Valentine-esque sonic manipulations plane across the top of early house basslines. Further is the culmination of nearly two decades of psychedelic exploration, an immersive collection that finds The Chemical Brothers at their least-restrained and most-melodic best.

Films/Visuals
Visuals for "Further" have been created by long-time visuals collaborators Adam Smith and Marcus Lyall and correspond with each track on the album and have been planned during the recording of the record. These visuals are actually films and will be included on an iTunes LP and special edition DVD.

Further On Tour
You can catch the two brothers in action at four shows in London in May, followed by Sonar in Barcelona, EXIT festival, Balaton Sound, and gigs in the US: Hollywood Bowl in LA and Electric Zoo in NYC.

The Chemical Brothers album "Further" is out on June 8, 2010 on Freestyle Dust/Parlaphone/Astralwerks.
