The Chemical Brothers Launch Their New Live Film "Don't Think"

The Chemical Brothers launched their new live film Don't Think with a star-studded premiere at London's Hackney Picturehouse last night (January 26). The film is a collaboration between the band and their visual designer/director partner Adam Smith and was screened last night in front of audience that included actress Keira Knightely, Klaxons and Doctor Who's Matt Smith and Karen Gillan. Don't Think was filmed during The Chemical Brothers' headline set at Fuji Rock festival in Japan in 2011 and is a mixture of footage of handheld cameras from inside the festival's crowd and the band's spectacular visual show. Speaking about the film, band member Ed Simons said: "We wanted to have a film for us to keep as a record, but Adam had more ambition. There was footage from Glastonbury 2007 which was pretty amazing, it really started to capture what it is to be in the crowd, how the music and the visuals are intoxicating. You have to capture that thing that’s in the air."
