Well, I like Pendulum's albums... B U T there 's nothing to compare Pendulum to The Prodigy. Actually the kingdom's throne is owned by the king called Prodigy

Pendulum should thank Prodigy because part of their popularity relies on their remix of Voodoo People ;)

Voodoo People remix was heavy and i love it but lets be honest they didnt have to do a lot with that track as it was already a killer! They just put a drum & bass beat over it and tweaked it here and there!



Well, remixing any Prodigy track is a challenge to say the least. I believe they remixed the track exceptionally well. Many have tried remixing them but this is one of the very few to have succeeded. To bad Pendulum decided to establish their entire career on it.

Thought some of you might be interested in this, its from Julys issue of FutureMusic magazine and has a section on The Prodigy vs. Pendulum.

Quote:
"With their buzzsaw leads, rolling breaks and thrilling live shows, it's easy to see why some sections of the music press have compared Pendulum to Essex's finest, the Prodigy. But it's a comparison that annoys the hell out of Rob Swire - and Liam Howlett too.

"I'm sorry, but I really don't see it. If you're going to compare two bands and say they are the same just because they have a good live show, then you're going to be lumping hundreds of completely different bands into the same box. If you actually sat down and played a Prodigy album and a Pendulum album back to back you will immediately hear the differences. Even from the most basic point of view, we've are more of a 'band' thing. All that shit was really getting on my nerves... and Liam's too."
"So we decided to collaborate - we put together a track called Immunize for the new album. We didn't make a big deal about it though. We just sent a few emails back and forth and then got stuck in to some definite ideas here in the studio. It was a real pleasure to work with him. I mean... we've all grown up listening to the Prodigy.
"What we both hope, though, is that this will stop people talking about all these pointless comparisons. Both bands make Electronic music with a Rock element. We can't get away from that. But we are different bands."

thats the Best way to put it, their albums and live acts have completely different atmospheres.

there's nothing offending discussed here. since everyone has the right to express his opinion, I say people tired of this subject may just avoid the thread. like I do whenever I'm not interested in a thread

Totally agree!! Everyone here write down opinions about this subject. The problem my friend Agent Orange is when people cannot stay on topic like many times before. I can't see any problem discussing Liam's thoughts.

How can Prodigy be threatened by a band who doesn't even have true fans. They have listeners, but not fans, they chased them off with a pointed middle finger when they started talking shit about the whole DnB scene. They cut the branch they were standing on.

Pendulum has a very, very big audience and publicity for a electronic band, but let's be honest, they will never have a edge like Prodigy.

Oh so Liam purposely made Immunize not as cool as it could of been and they made damn sure you new it was a Pendulum track by having their signature cheesy sound repeat over and over. lol
