There's a famous saying that goes along the lines of how the only things people can rely on in their lifetime are death and taxes. Well, it's 2021 now, and I'd also like to add The Chemical Brothers to that list. 'The Darkness That You Fear' is perfection. It's arguably the most joy-filled track they've ever released. Made up of seemingly endless layers of beats, electronica, and a simple uplifting vocal, all combined in a way that creates such a sense of euphoria that I've been shifting between smiling like a lunatic and happy crying for over an hour now.
