Music for an Accelerated Culture is the debut album from new rave/grindie band Hadouken!. The album contains nine new songs, three of which ("Spend Your Life", "What She Did" and "Declaration of War") have been previously played on tour, the album also includes two older Hadouken! songs; Liquid Lives and That Boy That Girl.[1][2][3][4]

History

Live versions of "What She Did" and "Declaration of War" were made available for a limited time on Atlantic Records youtube channel.

The first track, "Get Smashed Gate Crash" was added to the bands' MySpace in February 2008. The album was supposedly leaked onto various torrent sites however it has been confirmed to be fake.

A clip of "Declaration of War" became available on the internet on March 25th 2008. It was later announced that the song would a single, and that the video would begin screening at several locations around the country in an unconventional method;

  • 28.03.08 - London St Martin in The Fields Church. Trafalgar Square - 18.30
  • 29.03.08 - Leeds. The Cockpit. Swinegate -
  • 20.30.03.08 - Manchester MEN arena - 18.30
  • 31.03.08 - Glasgow. ABC2 Sauchiehall Street - 18.30[5][6]

A further fake copy surfaced two weeks before the release of the album which used 30 second previews of the songs on a loop, the band responded to this stating: "Some moronic blog writers have downloaded this version, failed to spot it's not actually the album and written reviews of it saying that all the songs are really repetitive. Errr megalolzeleven at them. Please buy your own copy and make up your own mind as to whether it's any cop or look out for genuine reviews in all the usual magazines in the next few weeks.".[7]
