ive listened to 3 or 4 of the songs so i dont have a proper opinion yet, but i think it sounds pretty damn terrible

Good timing with the poll. Just got this the other day. It Rocks! (tho ‘Experience’ was responsible for making me go to my first illegal in ’92. And my mother would still like a word with them bout dat :wink:)

Until last night, i had to make do with recording onto cassette and listening on van stereo at work. Last night, bout midnight, just switched TV off, and whacked it up on me stereo. (Sorry neighbours – the ‘URGE’ suddenly took over!) Good to listen to it properly at last.

I’m sure the whole listening experience was enhanced by the late hour and possible ‘wrongness’ – hmm does this make me ‘BAD’ i wonder. I try to be good – but those Prodigy ppl, just drag me down again 😉

Was trying to mop the kitchen floor whilst dancing to ‘Thunder’ – fun combination of fancy footwork that was. Amazing tune – Mmmm, dem basslines get me! Ended up nearly breaking my neck slipping on the wet floor :laugh_at::crazy_dru Check the vid for it if u’ve not heard it yet

Great album, seems to have quite a few different sounds n styles going on. Some familiar oldskool riffs, some rock, a chilled out tune,some punk, a slight spattering of cheesy Trumpton (NOT a bad thing imo),breakbeats, house, grimey sounds too. quite varied i think. Love ‘Omen’ – also have the EP for that – 5 versions, good stuff, and that ‘Take me Away’ tune, can’t remember title at mo, cd is downstairs and i’m a lazy biaatch 2day!) – but that tune is fookin awesome, it does indeed take me away, in a backward stylee, to a warehouse many many years ago. To the dancefloor. Cos that’s what it’s for! 😉

Got the bonus tracks edition (iTunes) – track 14 is a talk through of the tracks. I like that.

Anyway, that’s my initial reaction. Am still ‘discovering’ the album at the mo. Will report back if i need to elaborate!
Plurry hurgz to all :group_hug

that thunder tune to me is yaaaaaaawn, people will buy it and like it because they dont know any better good hard dance music.

lol mate chill out, i meant they dont know any other dance or where 2 get it.:crazy_diz

but u must get what i was trying to say, the sort of people who dont really listen to dance music but liked fire starter…… hahaha

It’s OK, I bought it and listened to it once. They’ve pretty much just rehashed all the well-known prodigy sounds from the first two albums and stuck bigger drums over the top with some cheesy halloween lyrics. I have no problem with it, but it’s nothing new. Favourite track is Warrior’s Dance, although its been mixed really shit (presumably on purpose to make it sound like an old hardcore vinyl?). Thing is there are so many quality producers making better breaks at the moment (eg. Far Too Loud, NAPT, Rektchordz…) that the prodigy are just nothing special.

Prodigy are never going to be the groundbreaking rave act they once were, partly cos they’re old, partly cos times have changed and partly cos when bands get that big there are so many record company people and various other investors who all have their say in how it sounds. Like someone probably said to Liam “you’re the prodigy, you’re scary and dark, that’s your thing, so you need to make all your songs about wolves and thunder and dark magic. And Pendulum seem popular with the kids right now so throw a bit of that in there too. And according to the t-shirts rave is back in fashion so try work some of your old material into it,” and he did what he was told.

thats a bit harsh isnt it? sounds like u mean anyone who likes the new album doesnt know their dance music?! wich is clearly not true
personaly i think the new album is great, granted its not anything new, but its better than Always Outnumbered was. my point being, without tryin to blow my own trumpet here, i definately know my dance music AND also like this album, so ur point is kinda stupid, not to mention small minded. to put it bluntly.
now it sounds like im being a bit harsh?!

i meant it will sell to more people as alot of people arent really into dance and prodigy are a big name (and rocky)….. i didnt say ‘UR AN IDIOT AND DONT KNOW GOOD DANCE MUSIC IF U LIKE THIS ALBUM’ i aint even heard it but i highly doubt any song will be better than ‘Spitfire’ or ‘Girls’ off of Always outnumbered

hahaha download :crazy_diz not my place at all

a good show is an understatement
