I'm going to be curious to see public perception of this album. I may just be getting old, or my tastes are not up to todays standards.

Listened once, hard to take it all in. Some songs sound like they end too soon, especially beyond the deathray, that could have been so much more. I was expecting more from Rebel Radio but it doesn't really get up to much on first listen. Everything will become more clear with more listens, way too much to take in on 1st listen.

This is the most indifferent i've ever felt listening to a Prodigy album, can't really process it all as so much to take in.
Some of it is utterly brilliant and some of it utterly awful! It's a band album for sure, not sure if I like seeing the Prodigy as a band though.. be really interesting to see the reviews/reactions on this one of the coming months

Such an amazing album. I was one of the few people up at all hours this morning listening to it which meant no sleep for me Solid 9/10 album better than invaders and AONO, on par with experience but there's not one song that'd test the likes of SMBU, Voodoo, Poison etc.. Medicine comes close. Delighted

The Day Is My Enemy - nothing new to say here, mid-tempo stomper, modern Spitfire, colossal track Nasty - decent, aggressive song, no bad thing to say here, maybe it's not top of what Liam can deliver, but it's very enjoyable Rebel Radio - the oneiric vocals nailed it, can't believe Im lovin' 'em as much as the beat, which also sends a kick in the face Ibiza - banger, speedy, witty, but has some adrenaline pumpin' vibe to it, gigs gonna do magic to it, I'm tellin' ya' Destroy - yea, rearranged Destroy The Melody, whatever, killer track, gonna whistle the motive over and over again Wild Frontier - like I've said in the right topic - sunshine and raw power combined, heart warming tune Rok-Weiler - another great track, much energy, much appriciated Beyond The Deathray - yes (Wheather) Experience reminiscence Rhythm Bomb - goddamn love it, pure sex music, and the sexy vocal sample, god, this is better than porn Roadblox - I'm dyin' and risin' from the dead over and over again, top notch track, the rapping is frestyler like, but I love that too, I love everythin' about this track actually, sends much love and a rebelious attitude to the heart Get Your Fight On - like the live version more, but this TMTTH v2 still beats the original TMTTH (which is a very good song anyway), but yea', could've been a bit better if they'd stick to the original version Medicine - sex music vol. 2, another one that really sounds like some music you wanna fuck too (the chorus, again pure sexiness) Invisible Sun - laid back, just like Beyond The Deathray it's the most hypnotizing song on the album, dreamlike Wall Of Death - nothin' new to say here [2], wall crusher, jawbreaker, whateva', one hell of a monster track Rise Of The Eagles - cool bonus add, reminds me of AONO era
overall what I love the most about this albums is that is so filled with flashing and shining neon lights, it's sounds modern but keeps a high level of rawness, violence and dirt. totally the best thing they've delivered since The Fat Of The Land.
I'm still gonna complain 'bout no Jetfighter tho

I say the band should bring the digital release forward, like tomorrow or ASAP. That way people will wanna get the better, higher quality copy from official stores instead of the crap compression of an already compressed split tracks leak floating around online. Only possible way to undermine this leak and hopefully convert those who didn't pay for it to wanna buy the album in good quality.

It'd be nice if they bumped up the FLAC release on theprodigy.com too

Because it's one of the rare releases you will actually be able to buy

Why mid-afternoon, and why 6 Music? Seems very random.

So Ibiza's like a dumbed-down Piranha then.
