THE CHEMICAL BROTHERS Push the Button (Astralwerks)
On their fifth album, this iconic club-music duo returns full force to the influences it flexed so thumpingly on its 1995 debut, Exit Planet Dust: hip-hop and acid house. But what a difference a decade makes. Lead track "Galvanize" does just that with a Q-Tip rap and undulating funk that would make Timbaland jealous. "Left Right" feels powered by real crunk juice, while the rhythms of "Hold Tight London" are mesmeric enough to evoke an all-night hands-in-the-air dance-floor pilgrimage. All together, these diverse grooves blend into another Chemical classic of unrepentant pleasure.
