		The album's title refers to a slogan in America from the 1950s, advocating that hyperactive children should be quieted down with large doses of valium.
		Better Living Through Chemistry is the soundtrack for a new generation.
		The album is 12 fat slabs of funk, soul, slamming techno, and all the best jazzy bits of the 60's and 70's combined into one vibrant piece of work.

	Better Living Through Chemistry (album) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Better Living Through Chemistry is the first album by Fatboy Slim.
		The founder of Skint Records, Damian Harris, has described the album as having been 'more of a compilation than an album', as some of the tracks had been recorded some time previous to its release, due to Norman Cook's other musical projects.
		The album cover features a 3.5-inch floppy disk, paying homage to Blue Monday by New Order, which featured a 5.25-inch disk.

	First album is better late than never for Prime Movers - The Boston Globe
		In the case of Boston's garage-soul rockers the Prime Movers, it only took these four onetime high school buddies 25 years to record and release "Back in Line," their first full-length CD in a musical career that dates back to the Reagan presidency.
		It's leaner and it's meaner, and it feels better." Lean and mean have always been two of the Movers' best qualities, although one doesn't usually associate slow boils with a band that made its mark exploding from the stage in a loud, fast flurry of hooks, harmonies, and blinding white denim.
		Aside from an occasional split-single or random compilation track, the Movers say they were never able to completely capture the unbound energy or raw charisma of the live sound that made them a Boston favorite in their heyday.

	Queens Of The Stone Age - Rated R Review - sputnikmusic (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-16)
		I do believe this was the first single off the album (could've been the previous track) and you can understand why it is. Undenialby catchy, with perfectly placed vibraphone hits that add something different to the song.
		Better Living Through Chemistry is an epic affair, with some of the most intense, and menacing guitarring I've ever heard.
		Better Living Through Chemistry is probably my favourite song of all time.

		"Better Living Through Chemistry" was where the Fatboy Slim experience started though, released in 1996 (two years prior to the big break) it was a fresh new dance album from an artist full of odd ideas.
		"Better Living Through Chemistry" is a bluprint for latter work but not commercial, it's very exprimental, funky and I bet if he would have added some more lyrics on these songs they could have been hit singles too.
		The sound of Better Living through Chemistry is synth-rock house with a very American, westward-looking feel to it.

		Nonetheless, he fills each album with enough catchy hooks, imaginative sampling and euphoric boogie-down beats to make up for years of stoic dance-floor redundancy.
		Each album favors something different in his bag of goodies, but it's always the same flavor of treat.
		Despite (or because) of that album's saturation exposure, the follow- up, Halfway Between the Gutter and the Stars stays close to the house with some furious funk-inflected racket ("Mad Flava," "Drop the Hate") and chattering hip-hop mixes ("Star 69," "Song for Shelter").

		BETTER LIVING THROUGH CHEMISTRY is asmooth attempt to attract them both to the same shindig.
		In my opinion it's this masterpiece, rather than his recent albums, that shows him for the genius that he obviously is. The quick tempo stuff rocks, and the slow stuff is really hauntingly beautiful.
		I only bought this album because I am a completist and I had the other two but it is probably the best album I own.

		Better Living Through Compression, the impressive sophomore release from the former Starbelly member, finds Hillis in good form, backed by his band of Forward Thinkers (Ken Herblin on guitar, Dave Anthony on drums, Greg Maragos on bass) and a host of guest musicians.
		The cordial songs of Better Living* Through Compression* get better with each repeated listen, and in a world often besieged with the blatant, perhaps the time for subtlety is now.

		The inventors of Teflon and Lycra probably never expected the phrase to take on a life of its own as the 21st Century proceeded, but by the late 1960s the abbreviated “Better Living Through Chemistry” became a rallying cry for those experimenting with manmade chemicals like LSD and Quaaludes.
		As late as 1996, Big Beat supremo Fatboy Slim was celebrating the late 90s UK drug culture by claiming the slogan for the title of his multi-million selling album, and four years later a song of the same name made it on to Queens Of The Stone Age’s ‘R’ long player.
		Cornog may sing of such “better living” half way through the title track of his latest collection, but the characters that inhabit Cornog’s world are hardly party monsters.

		BETTER LIVING THROUGH CHEMISTRY is a smooth attempt to attract them both to the same shindig.
		Throughout BETTER LIVING, techno and hip-hop beats and a variety of jazz/funk samples are married to a post-modern "rock" feel, utilising mucho distortion, lots of analogue squeals and coming up with a damn warm mix for an "electronic" album.
		Thus, there are numerous moods to be had throughout--from the reflective ambiance of "Santa Cruz", to the mid-tempo blues/trip-hop stomp of "The Weekend Starts Here", to the out-n-out rockers such as "Going Out of My Head" and "First Down".

		However, being from the U.K., he wasn't really heard of by the mainstream in the U.S., until his first album, Better Living Through Chemistry.
		The first time I saw him was on MTV's AMP with his rock and roll electronica song "Going Out Of My Head." The whole video follows an 80's boombox as it is passed from one group of people to another.
		Although Cook wasn't even going to record Better Living Through Chemistry, and when he did it took less then week, it is packed full of fun and energy.

	Beastiemania.com - Who Is Who - Fatboy Slim
		Having released the somewhat popular Better Living Through Chemistry album back in 1996, Fatboy Slim was poised to do something great when his 1998 You've Come a Long Way Baby dropped like a sonic wonder.
		Riding high on the success of his album, Fatboy Slim was approached by the Beastie Boys to remix one of their songs from Hello Nasty (1998).
		The result was a remix that was so good that the band chose it for the music video in place of their original lp version.

		When QOTSA surge forward with all their might they can be pretty awe-inspiring, but the band doesn't forget to deliver singable chouses, either ("First It Giveth," "The Sky Is Falling," and "Gonna Leave You," for example).
		Sure, the album has some ham handed moments, and they'd be better off letting Homme or Lanegan sing than have Oliveri scream (the wonderfully titled "You Think I Ain't Worth A Dollar, But I Feel Like A Millionaire" and "Six Shooter," the album's lone misfire).
		But that's nitpicking, 'cause even the dreaded "concept" presented here (the album is set up like a radio broadcast) is a cool one, and even the completely unexpected "hidden track" (QOTSA do folk!) is surprisingly accomplished.

		Norman Cook and his unassuming little studio at his Brighton home is producing the tracks that have helped put big beat, the moniker of choice for his muscle-car rhythms, on the global musical map.
		The title of Better Living Through Chemistry, his debut under the Fatboy moniker, refers to a slogan in America from the 1950s, advocating that hyperactive children should be quieted down with large doses of valium.
		Beyond that, Better Living Through Chemistry is the soundtrack for a new generation, the sound of the world breaking free of guitar-bass-drums and the hackneyed configurations of modern rock.

		The track, along with "Everybody Needs a 303" from the same album, got airplay on more open-minded radio stations across the nation, namely KROQ in L.A. In 1998, while discussions on the death of rock took the main stage, Fatboy Slim exploded.
		Just try going to a dance party anywhere (even In Cahoots plays Fatboy Slim in their commercial on 107.7) or watching MTV for 30 minutes without hearing Fatboy SlimÑyou'll see what I mean.
		It is also one of the only albums out with at least three singles ("The Rockafeller Skank," "Gangster Tripping," and "Praise You") currently getting radio play and/or videos on MTV.
