A commercialized term that I hate to use, Big beat (or Chemical Breaks) is probably the best term used to describe the works of

The Chemical Brothers
The Prodigy
The Crystal Method

any other lovers out there?

Break The Cage, besides fatboy slim, the rest are generally dj's / producers, not bands :P

But yes also good music, I don't like Daft Punk much for ridiculous popularity based around nothing but a beat and voice box.

A lot of Aggrotech bands have been doing it longer: combichrist, icon of coil, panzer ag, front 242

but hell, good nonetheless.

I know.. fatboy slim is a DJ. I just used band as a term for a group of people who make music..
Daft Punk may make simple music, but its catchy as fuck I love it.
