"Surrender" is the third studio album of The Chemical Brothers (not really brothers). It explores the boundaries of electronica at the time, mixing and remixing different styles together. The album features various guest vocalists, including Hope Sandoval of Mazzy Star. Originally released in 1999, it was certified as double platinum in 2005. This special boxset was first released in 2019, to celebrate the 20th anniversary of the album. It features unreleased mixes. It is a pinnacle of psychedelic electronica.
The Chemical Brothers are, first and foremost, liars. They aren't even related. If you are willing to look past this deceit, you'll be rewarded with a deep dive into pioneers of the big beat movement. Also known as The Dust Brothers (again, not brothers), The 237 Turbo Nutters, and Chemical Bros, Ed Simons and Tom Rowlands began their duo in 1989, in Manchester, England. They launched their career as resident DJs in multiple clubs, before releasing their first recorded work, "Song of the Siren" in 1992. Release might not be the right word, they printed 500 copies and sent them to different music stores. Nobody seemed to like it, until they sent a copy to DJ Andrew Weatherall. In 1993 Steven Hall signed them. Things continued to speed up, by 1995 they were on their first international tour, and in 1996 their debut album "Exit Planet Dust" became a certified gold album. in 2006 they won their first Grammy, two of them actually, for their single "Galvanize" and the album "Push the Button". As of this writing, they have 6 Grammys, and 6 #1 albums in the UK. Their story is an inspiration to those facing a mountain of rejection letters, as well as those with a pathological instinct to lie about being brothers.
