Controlling Crowds (Parts I-III) is the sixth studio album by British trip hop progressive and alternative group Archive. It was released worldwide on 30 March 2009.

Release

The album consists of three different parts:

  1. Part I: Controlling Crowds; Bullets; Words on Signs; Dangervisit; Quiet Time
  2. Part II: Collapse / Collide; Clones; Bastardised Ink; Kings of Speed; Whore
  3. Part III: Chaos; Razed to the Ground; Funeral

In the beginning, the band wanted to include a fourth part. It was later released as Controlling Crowds – Part IV on 19 October 2009. Both albums were released on the same day as a double CD under the name Controlling Crowds - The Complete Edition Parts I–IV.
