That's true, Prodge are very loud, live and on CD.
To Robo65uk:
Hard to say. The volume is not the bands thing, it depends on the audio-setup and the man mixing it.
If you make it loud, you loose dynamic (which isn't that important at a live-gig) but you also sort of 'mud' it all together. I think Prodge is well balanced.
DOn't know if SLipknot is louder, it depends.
Loudness = VOlume of the Instruments, mixing, size of the area + buildings around, things that absorb the sound and some other stuff.
And every band mixes their sound differently, some have delay-traps (that kill off the reflected soundwaves which make you feel the sound is delayed and wrong), some don't.

For the different mixing of the instruments: (f-shit drums) see my last posting

Okay, let me get this straight lads, you can definitely hear both instruments.
Really. Or at least I can.
Just the mixing is crap from time to time.
And why should they add a drummer just for the visuals??
I don't believe the guys think we are a bunch of silly idjuts without ears. We don't just have a stomach to get some bassvibes back.
Anyone who went to Bizarre might have noticed, that the mainstage was a flat landscape, but there were two big towers and one big building in front of the stage - and in between there was the crowd.
They might have lowered the drumsound for a reason.
The pure sound of a drumkit is quite sharp and when reflected it sounds like a cascade of snares to you, and since there were no delayed speakers at the side (-the only solution to make the later part of the crowd get the same timed drumhits as the frontpart-), they turned it down a tad.

It isn't always that easy as it seems, put a speaker here and some there and it rocks.

Besides, I think the drummer does not play additional percussion, he just plays snare and Bd, for it would be way too exhausting to follow Liams hihat-figures...

Oh yeah, one thing I noticed as well, the new guitar-girlie was way too quiet if you ask me. I went to the Bizarre-festival and was really surprised by the rather unpalatable soundmixing, Ally was as nearly silent, Kieron wasn't balanced well too, I don't know if the band gigs with their own mixing people (-at least I know Liam has his one man for loading keyboard-,synthie-&sampler-sounds-), but it was a mess.
Not half as audible as Rockwave (which was mixed very very good, imho).

Maybe Jim will take it back by checking his sound himself.
Who knows?

Also, I really hoped that and it came true: They'll change the Album-title to something else than AONO. Nice, cos I didn't like that one much...

Nice shirts, but couldn't find any Prodigy stuff

What Evil Lurks is right and that's it

The thing is, Arie, that he won't understand you.
Not because he's silly or something, he's just not willing to.
He reads your reply and gets even more angry, about you for example, how could you 'dare to explain' him things or whatever.

Maybe you remember a certain person here -who obviously left the board (or changed his name)- I had a little rant with.
You came and tried to calm the situation, what made this person even more steamy. It was a very kind gesture of you, trying to help people who seemed to have a little misled conversation.

I'm sure Senore Firestarter is going to flame us both, because of our research about his behaviour,
or he's getting silent.

I decided not to deal with those guys too much anymore.
That leads to nothings.
Maybe I'm wrong and he'll understand, or maybe he just had a sort of a 'Gotta showya my punkin attitude'-attack and will go easy now.
Dunno, doesn't matter.

Oh.. I'm sorry did I just fucked up the whole board? Well Fine with ME!!! I'm always like that if I get mad so stop tryin to calm me down! I know the time myself! >:( If you all gonna defend him for saying "Electronic sucks" then you're no good, yellow kiester Prodigy fans. YES I CAN FLAME! IF I WANT TO! AND I DOn'T CARE IF I GET BANNED! IT WON'T HURT ME! BUT Hey! I'm JUST FUCKIN SSSSSSSSICK! AND TIRED OF YOU talking ABOUT Prodigy being bad or sucks! AND I'm not gonna be QUIET just like that. Not saing anything about that! >:( >:( >:(

HAVE A NICE DAY! >:(

You're a funny boy!

[TELL ME YOU DID NOT JUST SAY THAT!]

]

>:( TELL ME YOU DID NOT JUST SAY THAT! Oh no You fuckin dont say Electronic sucks! You fuckin moron! You thibk you can talk like that about Prodigy!? Hey you fuckin ass! You know what you can do Get DA FUCK OUTTA THESE BOARDS!!!

In the beginning, I was hypin' the album to all my musiclistenin' friends, but after a week the devotion dropped below zero. Maybe it will last longer with you, and I hope it will. Does everybody like the dirtchamber sessions, by the way. In the beginning I thought, it was crap, but every time I listened to it, I liked it more and more, now, it's one of my most favorite cd's.

Yeah, exactly, same here. Both cases.
I expected the DIrtchamber to be more dirty, more Prodigy.
But in fact, it is dirty, it's just not Prodigy. Just the influences.
But I think if you fell a bit into it, you can really get the Prodigy-vibe back. All those old tunes, they're all pure dopetracks (at least to me). I think Liam has an excellent musical taste. To be honest, I discovered loads of great bands and vibes through him and the D-Session.

Yeah, but it already grew on me and now it's grown out...
EPD & DYOH are pure dope, I loved them from the start and I never stopped.
FOTL for example wasn't that exciting to me at first, I liked SMBU and Climbatize and wasn't that much into the rest.
Later I discovered the brilliance of it and never questioned it since then.
But the new Chems stuff isn't that deep, you know, you can't discover that much in the music. They're cool for in between something. It's just, they get bpring very soon. But great if you already like it, that proves that the Brothers still make happy their fans.
Oh, I looove the video to Star Guitar, anyone seen yet?

You're right about the Chems, I had the same feeling with the last two albums. I needed a day to get used to them, liked them about five days very very much and now I don't wanna hear it anymore, it's like worn out

I'm scared that the new album will slightly suck.

Why should it?

Believe me, there are several people who would prevent that.

I knew BT, but I don't get why Prodge would do music with that guy.
Maybe they should also do something with the Chems. Or with me. Or Zed.

I didn't reply because I wouldn't have had much to say.
It would be nice.
Or not. Dunno. How should I?

There you've got your reply.

Well, we have various sayings here about people who love to be right about something, aaaaahhhhheemmm, urrrrr.....?


Anyway, who wants to see the alps??

That person spent time on writing bull and what for? That is the most sad thing you could do and I feel sorry for that person really...

Well, he's obviously hoping to earn credits. Or just to be looked up to, it's a simple pleasure.

I understand that most of you might believe it, it's neat.
And you can't really argue it down or show certain errors that would uncover a fake.
I just have a feeling about it wich is telling me: Nope, sir. Something's wrong.

I'm done with it now.
