Not sure if I think he swears too much, but I'm pretty sure he swears more than he used to.

the great thing about prodigy music is you dont have to think. theres nothing to think about. if you analyse it, its a bunch of blokes on stage jumping around swearing, shouting, spitting and screaming with a load of flashing lights, pounding beats and gut churning bass. i dont think swearing is the most over the top part about it all, the whole things nuts

100% agree with this statement , but swearing in english is nothing compared to swearing in croatian and word "fuck" is so "fucking" common in everyday conversations that i even don't consider it as swearing or smth :D

Needs less swearing imo.

More weird phrases like 'Psychosomatic' and 'Style unorthodox, but of course it rocks'

I'd say it's about time for a Maxim hip-hop track....

His swearing can be slightly over the top sometimes. I don't mind it, it's just expression but he seems to swear more than he used to, and a lot more than Keith...

Has anyone noticed that 00's Maxim live is a lot higher pitched than 90's Maxim live? Take any 90's live recording and compare to a 00's one, like Spitfire live or something. You'll see what I mean...

I think that Prodigy are as much a studio band as they are live. Of course, the guys themselves live for the gigs, but the music is born in the studio.

What's my point?

No swearing in the studio, but plenty live - but given Prodigy thrive on their live performances and getting the crowd hyped, aggression on stage is key to that. Prodigy's music has always been dramatic, aggressive and pounding, and eliminating the swearing would make it sound like a Take That concert.

And by no means am I slagging off Take That, they've come back and actually done their reputation the world of good with their new music (a bit like our Prodge), but their target audience and the response they want from the audience at concerts is very different.

The music defines the lyrics on stage and MC'ing.

what a shame that there is no bootleg from indonesia 2005, thay couldnt swear there

'smack my bitch up' became 'change my pitch up'

and if I remember right "Their Law" was butchered as well. Must have been hard for Maxim to not swear that night.

his swearing i can take its the MC ing that has really gone downhill...PLEASE STOP FUCKING SAYING "MY WARRIORS" WE ARE NOT YOUR WARRIORS!
its so embarrasing hearing him say it, he sounds like an 60 yr old grandad trying to be down with the kids,,,its tragic,,, maxim let the music do the work, stick the lyrics and stop it with the warrior shit.....and stop murdering SMBU with the stupid, everybody get down during the middle bit...STOP!

Yup, i think its alright every now and again but doing it constant on stage feels pretty pointless to me

Maybe when they drop WD from the set this problem would be solved

I voted no. It might really sound stupid when u listen a gig at home, but when u are there it's different. And anyway... who cares? Though I also hate that "all my fuckin warriors" thing. I would like to hear it only in WD, but not on the whole fuckin gig, like imd starts and maxim says all my fuckin warriors. why not all my fuckin invaders then?
By the way my father sometimes asks if "this man only can scream or what?"

Oh by the way, about screams... keith should do it more. Firestarter T In The Park 2008 is just fuckin brilliant! Not like today this "togerher we can rip it down, let's tear it down" stuff.
