The Prodigy have new music coming out tomorrow. Does anyone care anymore?
My late 90ās self does. My 2018 self says ehhh. Iāll still give it a whirl.
I saw The Prodigy at Brixton Academy in December 1995 supported by The Chemical Brothers on an all nighter. (The day before, I saw Pulp at that venue.) Both brilliant gigs.
As itās a Prodigy thread they were relevant and brilliant back then but not anymore.
Iāll certainly listen to their albums again but I canāt watch men older than me shouting that theyāre ātroublestarters or firestarters or have a remedy to a poisonā.
I donāt mean to be cruel to them but nowadays no one cares anymore about them as the original poster asked.
Having said all that, Jilted is a 10/10 album.
āJiltedā is indeed amazing and hasnāt dated at all (unlike āExperienceā).
Dunno, some of the new stuff Iām hearing come out right now from other acts has more in common with Experience than Jilted.
Prodigy were great fun in 1991/92 and a superb live act around 1995/96. But beyond that, nothing much.
I really like their album always outnumbered never outgunned from 2004. No silly vocals. Just music and some good music at that.
I was at that. Good times
as a metaller in 1994, i couldnāt understand why i liked No Good (Start The Dance) so much. Probably because itās an absolute TUNE! agree that Jilted is still great. itās a shame they went off the boil after that. Bits of crabby one were ok and i remember liking AONO when it came out. Theyāve seemed to have lost all originality since though - just rechurning the same old milk to the same old butter, which merely makes us fat.
I saw them a few years ago, and it was surprisingly great. Brilliant live show. Supported by Public Enemy, who was also entertaining.
I think I like everything the Prodge have done, in different ways. Jilted is a classic.
New song is called Need some1 and itās having itās first play on Annie Macās show tonight BBCR1
I saw them at Manchester Arena in 1997 supported by the Foo Fighters. Prodigy were great. Foos were shite.
The problem for me was⦠Firestarter was great but then Keith went āI HAVE A MICROPHONE!ā and they kept doing it. Their instrumental stuff is great but the Keith stuff has been diminishing returns ever since.
Thatās the only Prodigy album Iāve heard. Bought it in a twofer deal with The Cureās self-titled. A good combo!
You owe it to yourself to listen to Music for the Jilted Generation.
Oosh.
The Dirtchamber Sessions was fucking brilliant
Another vote for Davidoff Cool Music For The Jilted Generation. Played that album to death when I got it. Absolutely class.
Saw them in a glorified barn in Millstreet in rural County Cork in 2005. Fucking loved it. First gig I was ever at where I could feel the bass hit my chest like that. I was probably the only person there no on yokes as well.
I have it on now. Itās boss.
Saw them at Doncaster Dome in 1997, they were class, danced my arse off!
Up to and including Jilted they were amazing but have been awful since. Used to have a Prodigy VHS around that time which i watched to death.
The video with them dancing in front of the gate in a fieldā¦could never get my legs going that fast
