Not what I expected ... which is not really a big surprise ... ha
Liked the references to old tracks etc ... The video suited the music I thought. All in all not bad !

I expected to see more of the towers in the sea. but you only get to see them at the end, shame ... i thought they looked cool.

is it me ... or are they saying that the guy in the vid is possessed and as all good voodoo people do ... they hang shit up to scare the fuck out to people (Ie ref to old tracks etc ..voodoo shit an all that!) and at the end keith, liam and maxim are controlling him ... or to that effect??

yeah .. video fits the music. Good stuff!! :-D

I can't belive some folk don't like this video, i think it's one of their best it's easily as good as the Spitfire vid. It's about time they used the ant logo to full effect. The best thing for me is it makes the track feel more Prodigy somehow.

It's a little hard (and maybe unfair) to judge the video when you don't like the track and therefor I won't try. Only one thing.


To quote the part from the article posted at 1st page:
Quote:
"The group’s producer Cordelia Plunket explained why they chose the forts: “It fits in well with the theme of the video as from a distance they do look like aliens climbing out of the sea.

“We’ve painted a huge Prodigy ant (the group’s logo) on top of it and we also had a helicopter out there buzzing over the top to get some aerial shots too.“


So it seems that The Prodigy are in fact the aliens (and I always thought that the invaders would be aliens). If that was the idea, then the "we are the prodigy" sample makes more sense, and also that synth riff could be some kind of alien sound (so it was deliberately made to be a little annoying).

But for me, the music is always more important, and that synth is.. well.. annoying to listen to, so, as somebody already said, maybe the track makes more sense when you see the video, but it won't change how I generally feel about IMD

I think Maxim looks like that screamin picture in "Baby´s Got A Temper", Keith like in "Spitfire" Video that stoped screamin´ Pic and Liam like the confused DJ in Club from "Smack My Bitch Up" Video.

Maybe we will find HIDDEN MESSAGES [subliminal verses] in vid :lol:

the bit from 2:53 to 2:57 where the guy's jumping reminds me of the rejected firestarter video with the tyre bouncing every time the bass hits...

The video is pretty good, a nice call-back for the hardcore fans. I'm glad the ant is back. I like the fact it's slower paced. I don't like fast cut videos too much, Spitfire vid annoyed me a bit for that reason. It's good to be able to take some wide shots and not cut in for close-ups all the time. I think I prefer the Girls vid more though, that was cool and funny at the end...
