Push the Button
Chemical Brothers
EMI

You’ve heard Galvanize; it’s the song with a Middle Eastern twist that made Triple J’s Hottest 100.

If you like it, you’ll love the new Chemical Brothers album that’s busting with their usual mix up of electronic dance beat. Check out their great web site www.chemicalbrothers.com

Milan, the sex, the city, the music

Milan, the sex, the city, the music
Various artists
Petrol

From The City Series, Petrol once again sums up a location by its music and delivers it on one CD.

Milan takes you on a journey through the city with a blend of dance and lounge music. The CD inlay also has the top spots in Milan.

All Things New

All Things New
Steven Curtis Chapman
EMI

This CD is apparently innovative and represents a new direction for the popular American Christian pop and gospel artist.

Innovative sometimes means confused and, unfortunately, despite the inherent sincerity of the lyrics, the music is still mainstream at heart with plenty of annoying throaty vocals to distract you.

Relapse

Japanese don’t do things by halves. Take their game shows for example. Imagine this sort of warped enthusiasm applied to death metal – already pretty extreme.

This four-band, 37-track album is likely to be one of the most extreme things you’ll hear.
