First time reading this thread, and seeing the tracklist, one thing sticks out:

Harbinger wrote:
9. Rhythm Bomb feat. Flux Pavilion 4:12


Exactly what I didn't want to see. Really hope it's a one-off and doesn't dictate the sound of the rest of the album... Time to read the whole thread and find 20 other people have already been through this :P

It says "Rhythm Bomb feat. Flux Pavilion" and not "The Day Is My Enemy feat. Flux Pavilion". :D

Quote:
The city at night talks through drones and chaos. The hidden city that lives in the shadows of the anaesthetized and over-stylized urban landscape. The night time heart that pounds to the rush of different drums: a subverted militaristic snare, a distorted break, a glitched dub attack, a middle eastern refrain, a cacophony of in-car dissonance, a symphony of random noise soundtracking life at the edge of the night. Where humanity lurks in darkened corners, hoods up, eyes down and communicating through clandestine gestures. Where the urban fox hunts in the darkness of the city’s suffocating ghost life, ransacking the daytime waste, taking what it wants – unafraid, unchallenged, untethered, untouchable… Like The Prodigy.

The Prodigy today announce their new album ‘The Day is My Enemy’, due for release on March 30th via the bands own label Take Me To The Hospital through Cooking Vinyl. It’s an album that takes you on a journey through the unchartered underbelly of urban nightlife where anger is an ever-present energy lurking just beneath the surface of an edgy calm.

“I can’t tell you why this record came out so angry, I think it’s just inbuilt in me, ” says Liam Howlett “It’s more about what I like music to do. I’ve always seen music I like as a form of attack. That’s what I use music for, it’s an attack. I didn’t plan this album to sound violent, it’s just the sound that came out of the studio, a kind of build up over the last 4 years. ‘Anger is an energy’, that’s a lyric which always resonated with me. The tension is buried deep in the music right from the first drop. It’s all about the sound having that sense of danger. That’s what The Prodigy sound is about.”

Uncompromising first single ‘Nasty’ fires out of the cannons like a ferocious statement of intent and finds Keith Flint at his snarling best. Premiering as Zane Lowe’s Hottest Record in the World on BBC Radio 1, it sets the tone perfectly for the new album.

The Day Is My Enemy is probably the most British sounding album you’ll hear this year. Not British in the flag waving jingoistic sense, but in a way that understands that the nighttime spaces of urban Britain are a multi-hued cacophony of cultures. If Invaders Must Die was the sound of the rusted urban sprawl decaying like an open wound in the British countryside, then The Day is My Enemy is about the angry humanity existing in the decay of the urban nightmare.

Liam said on radio one that there were plenty of suprises in store on the album. Nasty has been chosen as it's not gonna scare too many fans off from buying the new album on preorder.

I'm very curious to listen to how will be the day is my enemy. In the previous live version it really was nothing special, practically shit and i hope that Liam totally recast it. I'm also curious about destroy and to understand how is it now, but i actually liked destroy the melody. Another curiosity would be to understand where the hell is heatwave hurricane, but maybe it was totally dropped out.

You have not heard "The Day Is My Enemy." all you heard was a vocal sample thrown over some trap/hip hop inspired demo that Liam had lying around. That instrumental was given to Same Old Sean for his track "Laydown." "The Day Is My Enemy" is gonna be a completely different backing track on the album with the vocal.

what a load of old tosh, instead of talking in convoluted bollocks just actually explain a little about what to expect with the album, embarrassing that this would actually appear on the labels website... you'd think the writer had swallowed a thesaurus the threw up all over the page

I remember Fat of the Land had a similar bullshit blurb. Its standard really with any new release. They kinda have to say all of the above to blow smoke up the arse.

However this is fucking cringe
