People can knock the Chemical Brothers all they want, but you simply can’t knock the Electronic Battle Weapon Series. These are their more experimental dance songs, and if “experimental dance” means not having Q-tip rap over some kind weird middle-eastern techno shit, sign me up. The Chemical Brothers do a lot of things that I don’t like, such as wear orange glasses (see picture above), but this is not one of them. Also, check out the name. It is SAVAGE. It is not even just a weapon. It is a BATTLE WEAPON. Over the years, there have been nine separate entries into this series, and I have picked my favorite three to post on here. They are in the order that I like them, but feel free to rearrange them in your head.

Great stuff Johnatron.
… and by “some kind weird middle-eastern techno shit” I assume you’re referring to Galvanize; not to the middle-eastern electro/techno of say Deep Dish, Rachid Taha, or Azam Ali. Right?

Yes exactly! I still really like old deep dish tracks and remixes. I like bhangra too, but I think that white people should leave it alone. They do it all wrong!
Galvanize was the shiot! “WORLD! the time has come to push the button!”
I guess we will agree to disagree!
