"The Chemicals" is a stand-alone single released by alternative rock band Garbage for Record Store Day 2015.〔 The song is the first track recorded by the band during sessions for their sixth album to be released. "The Chemicals" features Brian Aubert (of Silversun Pickups) on co-vocals.〔 Drummer Butch Vig described "The Chemicals" as "a very dense Garbage track". ''Nylon'' magazine gave a positive write-up to "The Chemicals", declaring that the song "flaunts Shirley Manson's signature sultry vocals in a simple, building chorus that teems with anticipation, ready to erupt into a burst of head-banging bass and percussion." ==Single release== For Record Store Day 2015, the vinyl "The Chemicals" single was pressed to 10" fluorescent orange vinyl〔 and backed with a new cut titled "On Fire". The sleeve art was designed by Ryan Corey for Smog Design, from a traditional 19th century Mexican retablo depicting the Catholic church iconography of the "anima sola", or lonely soul in purgatory. In the United States, "The Chemicals" was listed as a ‘Record Store Day Exclusive’ release, and limited to 4,000 units.〔 In terms of sales, the single was the #46 biggest selling RSD release of that year.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Record Store Day 2015 Top 100 Best-Selling Titles )〕 In the United Kingdom, the pressing was limited to 500 copies,〔 and sold enough copies to debut at #49 on the Physical Singles chart.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Official Physical Singles Chart Top 100: 19 April 2015 - 25 April 2015 )〕 The following week sales sent the single up to #33,〔 and a debut at #32 on the Vinyl Singles chart.〔 A worldwide digital release of the two tracks followed on June 2, under the title "The Chemicals / On Fire".
