You blink awake and find yourself halfway up the side of a Japanese mountain. It's night time, right at the sticky middle point of summer. You're in an opening in a darkened wood surrounded by - say - 50,000 other revelers, each of them frenzied; delirious from an all-encompassing psychedelia that seems to be emanating from a stage somewhere in the near distance. Above you, lights swoop and strafe across armies of marching toy robots and galloping deconstructed horses; paint balls explode in front of borderline psychotic clowns. You're in the thick of it, consumed by the spectacle, absorbed into the crowd, surrendering to the noise and the visuals. Stunned by the jaw-dropping intensity of what you're witnessing, just one thought flashes through your febrile mind.
Don't think. Let it flow.
The Chemical Borthers released a special announcement today. They will be releasing their first ever Live concert DVD, dubbed Don't Think. The DVD will showcase their performance at Fuji Rock Festival in Japan. Don't Think took place on July 31, 2011 and was directed by Adam Smith. The special part of the DVD Don't Think is the chemical brothers mixed the DVD in Dolby 7.1 themselves. So fire up the surround sound on this bad boy, cuz its going to rock!
DJ Mag goes on to say about Don't Think, "[it] weaves together the stark psychedelic imagery of the groups legendary live shows with immersive forays into the crowd." YUMMY.
The video will be screened in a bunch of cities, except Boston (WTF mate). Maybe if we create enough noise we could get a local venue to host? hit us on twitter or facebook to let us know if you'd want something like that.
