The Prodigy really don't like the term electronica and now it makes me feel like a COMPLETE fool! because that's what i always used to call their music!!! Please forgive me Prodigy if only I knew!.... :-[ :'( :'( :'( :-[
It just makes us laugh - electronica (Leeroy)

I always refer to their style as being 'Prodigy', you cannot compare it to anything else really in my humble opinion.

Zed

actually, i don't know what Prodigy is atm... FOTL out 5 years ago... new material sounds in different style.. and not so rocks to me... but i still believe Liam... of course, i'm angry i have to wait more and more, but i think/hope in the end we'll get high quality stuff...
and if be honestly i prefer the band is not performing any new tracks/shows/whatever before something is out, single for example. that situation when we get not finished new(?) stuff in mp3 16-56 kbps is no good at all.
and again be honestly, i prefer totally instumental new stuff, of course that will make Keith and Maxim jobless, but i meant totally instumental in studio versions. it's not because their voices or something. it's because there is a big difference between "music" and "song". a music have not got much limits in experiment (take Speedy J's music, that stuff rocks, that dude makes music without even drums as we used to hear it), but "song" has got a lot of limits because it has got lyrics. a song has got alway almost the same structure (start, part 1, chorus, part 2, chorus, fill, part 3, chorus, end). secondly a music of (for) a song is much more primitive than just a music because of these sequencing rules. and all new prodigy tracks (that i heard) are songs. that goes very in different ways from any other (older) Prodigy stuff. of course i understand Keith and Maxim wants to play more serious role in the band, but i think they just need to make their own tracks for the band, otherwise these tricks with lyrics will ruin the band. but it in my opinion of course.

Speedy J's Pull Over really kicked in here. Loved that tune back then, but haven't listened to it for ages. Maybe I should look it up again and give it a listen...

I've got his album "a shocking hobby", and listen to it pretty often.

dunno man, i should disagree... maybe they didn't make music for fans some ago, MAYBE. i just think there is a lot of lie in words "we do what we want to", "we don't give a fuck about fans"... if they really don't make music for fans then they can just make it their rooms and listen to it alone. and wtf that new image? you think they are wearing it at home?
if all prodigy fans say "prodigy sux" and go away then there won't be any prodigy at all, and the band knows it. i think the band feels like they're going to split up and wants to get some money before it happen, maybe even AONO will come out, but it won't save the band. the prodigy could stay as a great band, but their laziness and over topped self-confidence are killing them. actually, i could think the band is a history already, because that "new album come out in 2001, 2002, 2003" is not comeback at all. and that world tour is just last hope to get money from fans.
don't get me wrong, i'm a prodigy fan, at least i was, but i won't be a fan of some band without music...

mmm...interesting, but i still disagree...i mean of course they wear those army clothes for a stage gimmick and yeah they need us to listen to the music, but i mean if i go up to liam and say: ' Hey liam whats this bollox 'bout the album bein' delayed and whats with those new trax man," he'd go "ey feck off we don't want no interviews wiff media (BDO) " know wot i'm sayin - i thinks Liam just wants this perfect thats why he's delaying, and probably to make the fans bite them nailz - but it seems to be backfyring on fans likeyoself so maybe liam did make a mistake in his judgement - but who knows? Lets wait...and see ( i still say it's gonna be good )

Zed is right I think, at least as far as this 'wdgaf'-mentality goes, it's nice to say things like "I do it for myself, I don't have to rely on someone else", but if you have a band, you would be an idiot if you'd really go on with such a careless attitude.
It sounds good though. A lot of things they (/or chiefly Liam)say(s), are just said to large stuff up. Fits their mentality.
All that only works if they can back things up, with singles or albums or many good gigs (or the common 'hope to stay in the media-scandals' which many pop musicians do).
But if a band gets too silent... bad.

Stereo MC'S for example, they were off for nearly 10 years, came back with quite a good album but it didn't work out that much for them. If they don't go on very soon, they get into this Forgotten-star-zone where all the old, brilliant artists hang around and get laughed out if they try to chart again.
Catchword Right Said Fred. Harr harr. Morons.

Anyway, I hope they don't stop it all too soon, but I'm really interested in what Liam is gonna do after his Prodge-era.
