Chemlab: Electric Molecular

'Electric Molecular' is the second single from the second full length Chemlab
album, "Exile on the Mainline". The single contains four tracks; the album
version of the single, two remixes by Sascha of KMFDM, and a single mix by Marc
LaCorte of Black Metal Box. Unfortunately, the KMFDM mixes are anything but the
run of the mill mix. In fact the second mix is just an instrumental version of
the first mix without any new material added. Sascha even adds his token
guitar samples throughout giving it that tacky repetitive feel, which has
alway been the downfall most KMFDM material. However, there is a redeeming
feature on this single. The final mix radically de-constructs the original
version of the single and puts it back together again almost as a totally new
track with Stella's backing vocals altered beyond recognition. Overall this
single isn't anything special, but if you are a KMFDM or Chemlab completist
you'll probably find it at least of some value. In my case, I'll just keep
track four on repeat for a few hours to make up for the lack of new material on
this single.
