Title: Get it for "Base 6".
Review: I'm more of a Chemical Brothers singles fan than a Chemical Brothers albums fan. I think they save the most interesting stuff for the non-album tracks and honestly, I think they've never quite topped "Exit Planet Dust". Imagine my surprise when I make my annual pilgrimage to get the new single and hear the b-side this time out "Base 6". WOW! This isn't self parody, kids. It's a stunning return to form. Not only is it the absolute best b-side they've ever done (yes, better than "Morning Lemon"), it's the first time they've returned to the totally rocked-out style that they mastered on "Exit Planet Dust". Why this track didn't make the album or better yet, why wasn't it released as its own headlining single, is mystifying. If you've been secretly hoping they'd eventually do another track with the stomp and energy of songs like "Leave Home" or "In Dust We Trust", your wait is over. It will blow your mind.
Is the review positive or negative?
