Release Notes:

http://www.chemikal.co.uk

It seems that no one needs much of an excuse nowadays to reach for the party
poppers and declare some dubious anniversary a cause for celebration. Step
forward then, CHEM087CD + DVD, Chemikal UndergroundÆs charmingly entitled
tribute to surviving 11 years, 8 months and a handful of days in an industry
full of cloth-eared socialites and self-serving egotists. ThatÆs not to say
everyoneÆs like that: weÆre a fantastic bunch of guys, as are all the artists
featured on this double-dunter of a CD and DVD. WeÆve also worked with a
magnificent array of people into the bargain and we offer them all our heartfelt
thanksà
This package is a testament to the artists weÆve been fortunate enough to have
collaborated with over the years and itÆs the sheer diversity of the music on
offer that should force people to re-evaluate their preconceptions of Chemikal
Underground and the strength of its catalogue. One of the most successful record
labels Scotland has ever produced, itÆs arrival and impact on GlasgowÆs music
scene cannot be overstated: launching several international careers including
those of Mogwai, Interpol, Arab Strap and The Delgados; propelling bis onto Top
Of The Pops with their second single; a Mercury Prize Nomination for The
Delgados; Mogwai headling Glastonbury; critically acclaimed albums by Malcolm
Middleton, Aereogramme, the Radar Brosà.
This is an album full of surprises and a bold affirmation of an independent
spirit that has endured against all the odds for 11 years, 8 months and a
handful of days.
