Released on 24 January 2005, with Steve Dub engineering and Ben Thackeray assisting. Guests include Q-Tip on Galvanize, Tim Burgess on The Boxer, Kele Okereke of Bloc Party on Believe, Anna-Lynne Williams on Hold Tight London, Anwar Superstar on Left Right and the Magic Numbers on Close Your Eyes. Galvanize, issued first, reached number 3, Believe number 18 and The Boxer number 41. The BPI certified the album gold on 28 January 2005 and it won the Grammy for Best Electronic/Dance Album in January 2006. BBC Music called it a rebel rockin' fifth studio album that blows all stylistic boundaries down. The side four run-out groove carries the message Huw is still innocent, which answers a similar message on the run-out of Exit Planet Dust.
