| EXPERT RATING: From AMG Reviews Ed and Tom's ten-year anniversary was an excellent time to gift the faithful with a compilation, and Singles 93-03 illustrates nearly every distinct phase of the duo's career -- from their early Bomb Squad fixation to their flirtation with Beatlesque Brit-pop and later reincarnation as psychedelic beatmasters. Still, this straight-up chronological look at the Chemical Brothers as a singles act certainly isn't the best that could've been done. It doesn't even include all of their singles ("Music:Response" and the non-LP "Loops of Fury" would've been excellent additions) and over half of the contents comes from the period after their first two (and best two) LPs. It does begin in brilliant fashion, with early singles "Song to the Siren" and "Chemical Beats" displaying the band's weighty influence from Public Enemy and My Bloody Valentine but also their fresh ideas about making dance music as fun as it had been during the rave era. Unfortunately, Singles 93-03 quickly cuts to weaker latter-day singles ("Hey Boy Hey Girl," "Star Guitar") as well as the Brothers' set of half-baked rock collaborations (including both Noel Gallagher guest-spots, "Setting Sun" and "Let Forever Be"). Two new tracks, "Get Yourself High" and "The Golden Path," are also collaborations. After a feature for fellow Astralwerks artist and rapper K-Os, the second delivers on most of its promise as a soundclash for two of neo-psychedelia's most interesting acts, the Chemical Brothers and the Flaming Lips. "The Golden Path" is a cool, crisp song with two surprises: it's clearly reminiscent of Echo the Bunnymen and features the solo vocal debut from the Lips' Steven Drozd. (Wayne Coyne, the band's usual mouthpiece, is heard near the end.) [The double-disc version is a clear improvement over the original, including rare tracks ("If You Kling to Me I'll Klong to You," "Morning Lemon") and a few unreleased gems ("The Duke," a live version of "Elektrobank").] - John Bush, All Music Guide |

Pros: hard to find songs; covers all the works of the Chems
Cons: none, really
The level of each and every track is very high, this is a best of, after all.
My favorite tracks of the first CD are:
Song to the Siren- I think this version is superior to the album version.
The Private Psychedelic Reel- this track is a masterpiece, I never get enough of it.
Star Guitar- same as the PPReel, only better and with more rythm.
On the second CD, my favorite tracks are:
Morning Lemon- I LOVE this track, the broken rythm is awesome, a bit like Three Little Birdies Down Beats.
Delik- I like the odd guitar, and the wink to Life Is Sweet.
The Duke is boring, , and I don't like the elektrobank remix. Only goodies, everywhere else.
The first CD is the collection of the singles released by The Chemical Brothers, and thus includes little bits of their whole history, but only the best!
The second CD has other tracks which were never released in the studio albums,including a few remixes ...
