The Chemical Brothers – American EP (2002)

The English electronic duo decided to let it ride and release a 5-track EP of remixes following the success of their acclaimed full length Come With Us. The compact disc also contains videos for “Star Guitar” and “The Test”, which is cool if your computer still has a CD drive. The whole thing feels like a total after thought, because it probably was. Nevertheless, the closer “Temptation / Star Guitar Live from Brixton Academy” doesn’t get old. Whether hoofing it through the the elements or being wedged between two semi-trailers on the southbound turnpike, that one epic breakdown will get you there. It’s the single reason this album is worth holding on to.
