Exit Planet Dust was
the Chemical Brothers' first major label
full-length album, so named because prior to 1995 they had gone under the title of
The Dust Brothers, a tribute to the great producers of such works as
Beck's
Odelay, but due to legal difficulties they changed
Dust to
Chemical. The
title was a
goodbye to their
underground name.
And you know, it's not a bad album, either. Here's the tracklisting:
- Leave Home
- In Dust We Trust
- Song to the Siren
- Three Little Birdies Down Beats
- Fuck up Beats
- Chemical Beats
- Chico's Groove
- One Too Many Mornings
- Life Is Sweet
- Playground for a Wedgeless Firm
- Alive Alone
A 1999 Japanese release added a couple bonus tracks that are worth hearing but not necessarily worth hunting down, dig?
