Quite simply stunning.......go and buy it on Monday!!!
Return to form in every way, pure quailty and some really good production. The rock/guitar/punk element is still there but not as prominate, some new sounds as well as old skool prodigy sounds.
I can not wait to see them now on the 2nd December!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

looking past firestarter and breathe etc, the rest of the album was not commercial. The new one is too "dancey" and over produced. But i dont like dance music(trance, house etc if you could call that music) and i think this new album is too close to that.

dont forget that prodigy more or less defined UK dance/Rave scene, I saw them in the very early days at coast to coast in birmingham, dance music is what they are about.

i think every album theyve made has been extremely well put together and produced.
they seem to have moved with the times and produced music that is appreciated at the time of release.
but every album is good in its own right. i love the new album cos its gone in the right direction for them IMO

complete agree Demo, its the way they needed to go other wise this album could have flopped big time, especially when you have bands like Chemical Brothers, Bassmeent Jaxx, Plump Dj's, audio bullies etc etc et all making new and freash tunes every time they release an album.

I wasn't that keen on it at first, but it's definitely growing on me.

when i read this thread, i'd got the prodigy album for about 5hours prior (came in post from play247.com)
i read that this album was a flash of their old roots and early years, well..............UTTER BULLSHIT
its crap and sounds like they are trying to catch upto 2004 from their previous album
im gutted as im a big fan of flinty and his boys
