Some harsh statements in the comment section. lets see if the lads can deliver what they promised with the new album.

trying to be neutral, prodigy shouldnt be as important as oasis or blur. they should be far more important.

they are more important in dance music then oasis and blur are in pop rock brit pop whatever. So I dont see why Liam is so bothered.

*thats why even pendulum and other nobodies have the nerve to make fun of Liam lol

and where are those wankers now?
the prodigy are still relevant. they are still around dropping f'n great tunes. why? because they are WAY better than ANY "i got the grimiest, dirtiest drop!" dance act out there. skrillex won't last. pendulum is gone. five years tops - then they all disappear. i remember how the dance scene hated FOTL. the FOTL big beat-fans hated AONO because they wanted trigger and the overrated nuclear stuff. and so on..
i don't want FOTL part 2 or music for the next jilted generation. i want liam to move forward. looking forward to the new album, expecting some dark, angry shit that 90% of the so called fans just can't handle.

Nasty sound very IMDish

Cause he knows that he has not writen anything ''important'' since FOTL. Most people who listen to music in clubs ec ,when i talk to them for a new album by the band more than half of them answer ''didnt the band broke up in the early 00's?'' or ''the guy with the crazy hair isnt he dead?''.

Liam knows that the band has not the popularity once had. Not because the 90's albums cant be topped by hiself but because since FOTL he has not delivered anything amazing that will dominate the dance scene....and he knows it.Yeah you all keep saying that he writes music only for himself but all those statements he does show that he cares what the people,critics ect say and all this ''i dont give a fuck'' is just an attitude.

Sorry mate but that's just bs. He has written important stuff since then,critically aclaimed and comercially succesfull. AONO was a very good album( even if divisive) that inspired a lot of producers and created a few acts like Justice. IMD was a cool album that marked their return,praised by everyone,sold around 2 million units, guaranteed them headlining spots for every major festival in Europe and continuos touring for 3 years straight.

Their problem is that they aren't out there interacting with the fans like these new act do. They don't have a click of artists around them like these newer acts do. They don't promote themselves the same way. They are complacent and only like to show their heads in concerts and that's it.

Not to mention their shitty attitude. When Imd got released in all their interviews they were talking how they are not dead, that it's good coming back and that they still cand rock like in the FOTL days, bassically confirming the mainstream perception that they haven't done anything since FOTL and this is the first time they are puttin new music out. The Prodigy themselves ignored AONO and the fact that they've been touring since 2004 till 2008 continuosly. Also referencing always that they had bad blood between them but it's sorted out now. This was the bad blood they had in 2004 when Aono came out and that they resolved pretty quickly, enough that it didn't bother them or make a big deal out of it for 5 years, but rembered it in 2009 when promoting IMD.

So they have a big IMD release and reception, world tours, success, good will from old fans, make new ones, but then what do they do? Do they capitalize on that success? Do they make sure they keep their new fans interested in them and their old supporting fans happy in a time when fresh artists in the electronic scene release tunes and remixes every year without worrying if they have an album to release or not? Do they release an album after 3 years, if they kept saying they are in the studio again writing new material? If they know they won't release a new album do they put at least an e.p. or a single out to keep interest in them alive?

The answer to all above is NO. They are the rebels, can't be bothered with the outside world until they feel like it. Now they are ready to pop their heads back up and are regurgitating the same things they said when IMD came out. ''yeah man, we still have fire, venom in us. We can still rock and show these fuckers how it's done. And we do it proper and real, cause you know we haven't really been gone at all, we just have been working bla bla bla bla''


It's their own fault the media still references the 90's stuff while mostly ignoring the 2000 era releases and the fact that they have been touring almost non stop for 10 years headlining and performing in sold out venues, while releasing new material that sells millions of units(thing that is hard to do even for pop starts nowadays in the age on one track downloads from itunes and streaming). It's their own fault for not changing the casual electronic music listener perception that they are hasbeens, old geezers that still try to be relevant.

Imagine if they had got up their asses and released a follow up e.p. 2 years after IMD, the next year release 2 tracks, and even do some remixes for Noisia, Diplo and Skrillex( i'm not a big fan of Diplo or Skrillex, but they are the popular and influential acts now that people pay attention too, working with them would be notices by young people and music journalists), or for some new Foo Fighters or QOTSA tracks considering they have a good relation with them. Support these releases with some tours in the U.S. where edm blew up.

They just retoured the same countries and festivals in the last 6 years, with no new quality material,just generic 2 minute snippets/beats. With Maxim shouting the same crap over and over again, no improvisation no nothing like a pre-set recording. Keith doing the same old thing. Everything just became stale and boring in the last 2 years. That is why this type pf perception exists:

''didnt the band broke up in the early 00's?'' or ''the guy with the crazy hair isnt he dead?''.

Liam knows that the band has not the popularity once had. Not because the 90's albums cant be topped by hiself but because since FOTL he has not delivered anything amazing that will dominate the dance scene....and he knows it
