I agree. And there are examples out there, like Scooter. They've been pioneers of rave & hardcore music since I was still sucking on a tit, and now...well, judge for yourselves below. I hate it because I grew up with Scooter, but the young generation will judge based on today's stuff.

So about Liam's new album, obviously I don't expect it to be another MFTJG or TFOTL, but I'll give it a fair chance, I won't express my opinion based on live recordings. He is experimenting a lot, we know that, and it seems he has a hard time making up his mind. This could be a good thing, maybe he's learning from past failures, who knows?? Wait and see, don't crap on him based on what you hear on youtube.

everyone thinks they know what to expect with the album...
just wait, Liam is gonna deliver a curveball and shut all the haters up!
i was disappointed with AONO, which i think with some more time could have been a much better album. but Liam restored my faith with IMD. so i ain't gonna write the dude off just yet.

hell look at "Beat 55" and then go listen to "Omen" and look at where that idea went... so i really don't think we know what to expect with the new album. honestly, tracks like "Jetfighter" and "AWOL" give me the impression that they won't be on the album since they haven't really been changed at all. Now look at "Rockweiler," Liam keeps on messing with it and changing it leading me to believe that it's gonna be on the new album in some form. the rest are either gonna be left or completely reworked like "Beat 55." don't really think we heard much of album material yet. Even "Get Your Fight On" only showed up a few times and then Liam hasn't played it because I think he's completely reworking it. you haven't heard anything yet. i wanna hear that Bratislava "AWOL" idea turned into something or "AWOL" go more in that direction than the rocky one.

i have faith he will deliver... we haven't even heard an actual full on 100% finished album track yet.

There is no hater here dude . Just some of us here are disappointed .

I'm the first to kneel before Zod if the album turns out to be good.

its a pain in the ass to live up to peeps expectations when deliver an album.

its even more a pain in the ass to live up to my own expectations. damn. i can imagen how master H must be feeling. he delivered some of the best (no, THE best) albums in the genre (what genre?), what can he do more to be better? more of the same?

thats what fans probably wants.. more of the same old shit he has already done. bk is rite. Master H has passed this point of time in his life and is up to something new, something fresh. but, to add some PRODGE vibe to it, will take some time to figure it out. H will not release some shitty beats we all can make these days on our ipad, H wants us to recieve THE BEST PRODGE ALBUM EVER! so, be patient, dont listen to that bullshit recordings on YT

somebody can read the hidden message???

i was thinking the same.. hardly to decipher the code this time

Tracklist and run time (57.30?) with the black thing on top?

Or, if thats new equipment then id guess its the manual with the black thing on top, with the paper in the middle being the shipping stuff/receipt

This is the risk when you go mainstreem,in time you lose your identity.

I wasn't sure whether to post this or not but I felt like giving my fellow fans a nice bit of info. So yesterday was one of the best days of my life,

Literally 10 mins before going in for a job interview (which I got btw) I saw the king himself standing on the street waiting for something. I won't say where out of respect to him but I instantly said "Liam Howlett?" and he went "yeah man!"

Anyway I wished him luck on the new album to which he replied "it's coming out soon!" Managed to get a photo with him before I left



If I see him again on my way to work I won't bug him but I'll definitely put a fist in the air out of respect

awesome!

nice of him to let fans approach. if this would ever happen to me, then it would also be hard to resist to say few words. it would probably be also one of most special days..

That's incredible! What a chance meeting, eh?

noice 1 man!! awesome picture

:D
