Yeah that bit. Warrior the best example of this is the 2004 maida vale session, they played it live around the same time. It is the 'It's so Easy' bit. It became the 'Its so Easy' bit when it was just used to the end of the track from 2005 onwards. In this day and age I don't think it's used at all.

I think it did, IMD when it came out was almost un-prodigy like in its production thanks to James Rushent but it was fresh, it was a tease to what was in store. Omen was a beast of a track when i first heard it, it was powerful, angry and harmonic. It left me wanting to hear everything that Liam had written in his bunker in the past 2-3 years in the lead up to the album release.

These new tracks have me worried. They aren't ground breaking, they aren't bombs, they don't excite me. I would actually dread to hear what Liam has done that he thinks wouldn't be for public consumption.

warriors dance gave me chills, and imd free download got frantically played on repeat.

if this is all the albums gonna be based on they should just get it out ASAP, sounds like a faster AONO plus keith n maxim vocals, I'm sure theres loads of stuff in the archives they could pull from. hopefully get a couple albums out + toured before they hit their 50s. at the end of the day, nobody cares about it, nobody is anticipating a miracle follow up. it'll go number 1 no matter what.

echo your sentiments, these new tracks are very tired sounding already, even if a Prodigy track of old wasn't strong some how the energy of it came through, with these new tracks they sound so so boring, (not a word you could of ever put with The Prodigy) so tired and totally one dimensional, we know how much Liam struggles to write at times, it can't help hanging out with the shite that is Scrillex et al, they look tired, old and out of ideas..

The problem is, that Liam has got lazy with the small sound details and don't really use the break beats any more, that makes what I think, the epic sound of The Prodigy. I miss the spacy and dark sounds aswell, like Full Throttle (lots of small details), Claustrophobic Sting, B&E, The Heat, Skylined, Firestarter, Breathe... Thunder is the closest thing since 1997 with massive beats, that really sounds like The Prodigy, I fell in love with. Songs like Colours, Spitfire 05, Girls, IMD, WOF1 are great too though.

its not just small details its the bass lines, all weak and so similar, lets be honest the boys are a spent force now, i'm just glad i saw them in the 90's because no one could touch them, so original, it happens to most bands, they just run out of ideas and out of steam, the peak years were 92 to 97, i never listen to IMD or AONO, i always listen to the others, its sad when the band you love go downhill but lets be honest its been on the cards for a good few years now....

cmoon, it's not that bad. AONO is AONO, that's different case, but IMD is wrote for playng it in Live first..

Omen, Take Me To The Hospital, Worlds on Fire, Omen Reprise, Run with The wolves are all perfect live tracks for the Prodge.

I don't want to write them off that easy yet, that is logical that no band can write theyr most brilliant album 6 times in a row, that would be simply utopia. still they can write an album what sounds like Prodigy, and that sound is still unique and theres no other like it out there.

i love Invaders Must Die... it and TFotL are my two faves

i just feel we're back in that pre-AONO build up all over again
but we've been shown some new interesting bits and ideas

but i would have expected at least 1 full on song by now in the shows
i still think they can deliver, they just shouldn't have jumped the gun and announced a new album so quick

here's hoping we'll get a new album this year...
hell i'll take an EP

AONO was fantastic effort from Liam. It's such a shame that he got so much hate because of it. It was however much appreciated by true underground producers. Many people doesn't see it's influence in post electronic music scene. Tracks from this album developed further when going live. And it was still great rocking band until end of 2007. Some gigs were worse some better but in overall it was this feeling of might and power. We may only wonder what could happen if it wasn't dissed so much...?

Then IMD jumped in because they fuckin needed to release something. And the honesty dissapeared and retarded old men bouncing to disco in front of mass of teenagers appeared.

Liam's attention to crap got scary. I remember these times before and after releasing AONO when I was chasing for every bit of his music. Every fucking second! How could this be that it's so uninteresting now?

I was just watching the Spitfast Download video where they mention ''we've got 3 songs, bla bla bla, we don't know yet whether they will be on the album or not'' so I hope I will be as suprised as when IMD came out (meaning f.e. Beat 55 turned into Omen etc.).

I am much worried about their live repetiveness/routine. Apart from the same (moreless) setlist I wish they changed their approach towards public. I mean, whichever tracks they are playing they always sound massive and I can listen to them live on and on however I think Maxim & Flinty should either move back a few years back or 're-arrange' contact with fans.
'Where are my fucking warriors?... Fucking this/fucking that...you'd better fuckin run....' it's simply getting boring/repetitve.

It's still great band though but....sometimes I have a feeling they play only for money like 60 years old re-united grandpas 'c'mon, let's play another show, they will come to see us anyway, we'll get money from the shows even if we play the same stuff'
