The Tie Dye Logo T-Shirt seems pretty much sold out in the official merch store, except for size S. Does anyone know of another way to buy the shirt in larger sizes? Or if the merch store restocks (in)frequently?

Are their best.

I'll be honest, growing up I was always a huge Prodigy fan and never fully got into CB's until "Born in the Echoes" in 2015. Perhaps not the greatest introduction, in retrospect, but it done the job and I was blown away when I went back and listened to CB's full discography. I was very aware of them but they were never quite as popular as The Prodigy so I didn't expect their catalogue to be that abundant.
The Prodigy probably had a more prominent peak in popularity and quality with their 1997 album - 'The Fat of the Land' but they most certainly do not have the consistency of the Brothers imo. Liam was a wonderful producer back in the day but he seemed to really lose his cutting edge after the millennium. Nowadays the drums are always LOUD, the samples can be obnoxious and the bass seems compressed.
They definitely had a proper battle in the mid/late 90's but I feel CB's are now leagues ahead of The Prodigy and I especially love that you never quite know what you're going to get with them. All you know is that the production will be lush and there will be so much to discover, with every relisten. Maybe I'm being harsh. 'Jilted' and 'Fat' are phenomenal projects but outside of that, I just don't think they hold a candle to the Brothers output, over the course of 30+ years.
Thoughts?
Come with Us has won, completely sweeping the board. I'd like to thank all of those who have competed. It's been fun doing this! Goodbye.
CwU has taken down PtB and Further. However, can CwU take down Surrender and EPD. However, you can also choose to revive an album that has been eliminated. If your confused go to the og post here. May the best comment win
Hi folks - I used to listen to the Brothers Gonna Work it Out CD all the time but never really listened to other Chemical Brothers music. Any recommendations for something similar they've put out?
Come with Us has taken over Dig Your Own Hole and No Geography, 2 albums will have to team up if they want to attempt to take out Come with Us while Come with Us can take out 2 albums at a time. If you're confused, read the og post here.

Thought this was worth it for what’s included. Just a heads up! If this post isn’t allowed, just delete it.
I became a Brazilian fan of the chemical brothers, I discovered this album a few months ago, I'm used to it always bringing the same hits, like hey boy hey girl, and don't get me wrong, I love all of TCB's albums, but I wanted something different, in fact, Further became my favorite, but when I heard We Are The Night, with the intro of No Path To Follow, followed by a very happy song, which would be the song with the same name on the album, and culminating everything with The Pills Won't help you now, I simply LOVED this album, and it's side by side with Further, as well as being 2 very special albums for me
CwU has taken control of WatN and with this a new rule will come into place. In order for CwU to be eliminated two albums need to team up to eliminate it (ie. No Geography and Dig Your Own Hole to take Come with Us). However, CwU can take 2 albums at a time (ie. Come with Us takes Dig Your Own Hole and No Geography). This will happen to any album that has 4 areas of control (rule still apply if they get to further than 4 areas of control). If you don't understand what we're doing, go to the original post here.
Doing a deep dive, in my kitchen, along with flower & very Silly Cibins…
It’s a very fun album. I’m old school with these two.
CwU has taken over FtBF, vote for an album to take over another album. If you're confused go to the original post linked here.
Check out their stories on Instagram.
I’d post a video here but it’s not allowed.
what do with think, DJ set special track or possibly a new single?
I personally love it, it’s a banger.
FTBF has taken over BitE, vote for an album to take over another album for today. If you're confused go to the original post here.
Explained: Vote for an album to take the land of a different album that borders (diagonal attacks are not allowed) another album and is a worse album in your opinion. Top comment by tomorrow (I'm a kiwi) will change the map.
Lineup looks solid. I’m personally interested in all the techno acts like Octave One and Slam. Also very keen to see 2manyDjs go b2b with Erol Alkan who I’m hoping to play some good electroclash / blog-house
For me it’s Leftfield, Underworld, Massive Attack, The Prodigy, Depeche Mode, Erasure, New Order and Faithless. What about you guys?
