So many good ideas but they chose the worst.

The fox is great but the colour scheme just annoys me (no offence to the forum).

I am glad the hammer went, it looked to similar to the Chems Push The Button era artwork

The fox on its own was the best one, the rest of these are two weak. The fox does not fit the original Rebel Radio album, so now I understand why Liam changed the title. But not really feeling any of the others. The fox against the city backdrop with the original sky like the sun is about to rise, the fox about to retreat back into the shadows until the next time... that is a much stronger image. It says something without forcing it. The rest of these are trying too hard to translate a message. A bullhorn, a hammer, a burning car... just too on the nose. Their meaning is small. The fox image stands for something bigger.

That Jetfighter/Fox themed one is badass, should be used for some EP with lost beats from the Jetfighter/TDIME period...

Interesting array of alternative covers. Some are better than others, but always good to see. I can't believe how many there are! They made a good choice with what they picked.

I agree. The ending of the song is too fucking energetic, when I react to it my face becomes so red and you can see veins all over my forehead 8-)

Am I the only one who feels that the band is on hiatus. of course they aren't, they have fist full of dates in November - Russia tour. But that's about it.

TDIME imo was a great album, It's still in my car and I blast it a few times a week when I drive home after work in the evenings. But this era died so fast and it didn't go very far. IMD era was amazing, the band was in high spirit, making video competitions and shit, special photo book, milton keynes festival. It was exciting and such a great time to be a fan. With TDIME they just dropped the album, played it lives where they were invited and that's it. Coming to this forum every evening is like coming to a Massive Attack forum pre this years EP releases, silent, calm and boring as shit. Heck, Foo Fighters are on hiatus and their FB account is more exciting at the moment than The Prodigy. It feels that the band went so underground that it really just hurt's their image.

What the fuck? This is the best band in the world and it has the power to do anything. Do something exciting.

It was an okay album. I listened to it for 2 months, and then I went straight back to Experience and Jilted. I got bored of it. I think most of the tracks has great elements, but also annoying parts going on. The day is too slow. Nasty is great but deserved a better beatline. Rebel Radio has too much of annoying sounds, but I love the bass & beats. Ibiza, don't get me started. Destroy, love it, but it should be a bit faster, and I miss some vocals on it. not Wiley of course. Love Wild Frontier. Rok-weiler is shit, and too damn slow. Deathray does nothing for me. Rhythm Bomb, great sound, but deserved a smack in your face beatline! Roadblox, boring. GYFO is cathy, but has this annoying sample (the first you hear). Medicine sounded cooler with the demo teaser clip Liam posted. Invisible Sun sounds like Eminem. Wall of Death is still cool. Today I give it 5/10.
Most Prodigy forums is pretty much dead. Sometimes I post great remakes and rarties, but no one ever responds to them, before the files expires.

You hit the nail on the head, untitled. I don't even know whether we can hope for an autumn tour, besides the Russian dates - which I'm definitely happy for, given how Russian fans are the ones that really deserve it - but there's not much of a chance for me to go there, it's a bit too far away. And finally, we all know how much time does Liam need before making new stuff, if we get anything new in 2017 we'll be lucky. I'm not moaning (well, I am), I'm just being realistic. I'm happy they managed to make TDIME after all, and we'll see what future holds.

I enjoyed TDIME and I still do. There are some tracks I still listen a lot - TDIME, Destroy, Nasty, Roadblox, Wild Frontier; others I listen to once in a while. And about forums being dead... this is probably the only forum which is still active, and there's a few relatively active FB groups. In Poland, all the forum activity died out long time ago, but the scene seems pretty lively with a popular FB page taking the place of the forums and The Prodigy Night club events happening in many Polish cities throughout the year.
