    On We Are the Night, the Chemical Brothers have switched from integrators to imitators.

    We Are the Night isn’t awful, but you can hear the rigidity of its formula, like the motorik title tune that burps up its eponymy every few seconds along a signless, moody highway.

If you like it when electronic music moves and feels organic, you're gonna love this album. Oh and please don't post a bunch of 0's on user review sites, just leave one and move on.… Full Review »
