I think that's what the dj on Radio K said....kind of a Afrika Bambaataa thing with Q-Tip rapping....I actually thought it was pretty cool and fun....but I was more excited when I thought it was a new song by Tribe who I guess have reuinited, because I thought it would be cool if they took some new leftfield direction (yeah like that's going to happen)...but anyway I'm not even sure what this is called.....Something tells me I will be riduculed for liking this by more dance savvy ILMers though...*

*also Ned, if there is already a thread I'm sorry - I checked and came up with nothing - pinky swear.

it's called 'Galvanize' and it is, in a word, okay. nay more, nay less. but since the Chem Bros have been terrible for some time now, that's quite nice in itself.

its quite a boring beat.

See? I totally dig it but I had this feeling that everyone was going to be all "meh" on it....hmm....maybe I'm finally getting him to all this newfangled "electronica" stuff like Fatboy Slim and Prodigy!

It's a decent track, but the rest of the album has some better/more interesting stuff. There's one track w/Tim Burgess of the Charlatans that's really tops.

I like it too. First Chems track in a while I can say that about. And the Abe Duque and Switch mixes on the single are F**KING GRATE TOO

second-worst song on the album, which is quite good.

I love it. The syncopated cowbell during the buildup is especially fun to air-drum to while driving down the highway.

Album really surprised me because "Galvanize" is so very mediocre.

Galvanize certainly lives up to its name.

So whom did the Bros. bite for the beats on this one?

― ffirehorse, Friday, 25 February 2005 23:08 (twenty-one years ago)

Surprisingly OK.

Almost makes me want to care about hearing Push the Button.

whatever happened to that Quest reunion album that was supposed to come out last winter...? Not that I think it'll be any good, but I'm curious to see what the beginning of the hip-hop reunion phase is going to look like... (who else would be due? NWA? Public Enemy?)

― Shakey Mo Collier, Friday, 25 February 2005 23:19 (twenty-one years ago)

PE better hurry up and split then!

(Also NWA already did once, with Snoop subbing for the late Mr Wright)

thirteen years pass...

This still slaps.
