Jul 17, 2015Born In The Echoes is another example of Rowlands and Simons' magic way of making machines sing. A+
Born In the Echoes is better than Random Access Memories (Daft Punk 2013)
It deserves a Grammy :) -

Jul 17, 2015I love this record. It feels smarter and more restrained than previous Chemical Brothers albums. Sort of like they stopped trying so hard with technical the gimmicks and wizardry, and gave way to a more confident, minimal sound.

Jul 19, 2015I've been a big fan of the chemical brother for a long time and i was just waiting for them to come out with a new cd. This one has a lot of catchy tracks. I don't know if they'll ever reach the same level of catchiness as block rocking beats or setting sun, but this one has some memorable tunes. Definitely worth downloading.

Aug 17, 2015I tried to listen to the album twice in order to give it a fair rating, but both times I quit after the first 4 tracks and the silence afterwards is so comforting. So in my opinion this work is nothing but annoying. I can't imagine a single event or occasion to listen to this.

Jul 23, 2015Another wicked electronic album that could be played in entire at a late night club, dancing with all your friends, letting go. Very creative music and great guest appearances by St. Vincent, Beck and Q-Tip. What could be better?!

Aug 18, 2015Born In The Echoes follows the duo's formula of saving the more psychedelic tracks for the end.

MagnetAug 12, 2015The Chems remain committed to their singular vision, still plying those swooning synths, continuing to breathe new life from the echoes. [No. 123, p.55]

Aug 12, 2015Born In the Echoes maintains a pop-sensitive groove for all but two of its songs.... But the real winners on this record as usual are the curios.
