Listened to the full album for the first time now - great production.

As someone else mentioned on here - no cheese on there at all which is much appreciated.

I think this is Liam's final album. What a close to a career!

Wow! 24 hours ago first listen... Now on 20+ listens.
Some are instant bangers, some are growing and some are meeh.

Resonate is completely insane, especially the last part.
Heard it about a year ago (like many of us) first on a low quality YouTube clip.. Then i went completely mental when i heard it live in Tilburg in December last year.
It was worth the wait for a studio version, what a insane beat. Maybe it's because of the hype that i created myself, but wow, Just wow!

When i heard the title of the track "timebomb zone" i directly linked it to Rhythm Bomb, which is the weakest Prodigy track ever in my opinion..
But, damn!!!!! What a wrong prejudice by the name!
This one is an instant classic!!! I always loved the high pitched voices of the early 90's, and man, Liam delivered with this one!

I hate the Boom boom tap voice sample, but it's a great track!

Need some1: 6/10
Light up the sky: 8.5/10
We live forever: 10/10
No Tourists: 7/10 (i kind of like the James Bond vibe)
Fight Fire With Fire: 6/10 (it's growing on me)
Timebomb zone: 10/10
Champions of London: 6/10 (could be something better, vocals of Keith and Maxim aren't "on par" with the track, better version of RWTW)
Boom Boom Tap: 7/10 (hate the vocal sample, rest is good, would be 8/10 without the voice)
Resonate: 10/10
Give me a signal: 7.5/10 (it's growing, first listen i didn't like the vocals, but they keep getting better and better with every listen)

All in all, quite happy with the album, 3 absolute smashers, 1 great track, 3 above good tracks.

After Experience, Jilted and Fat, No Tourists takes a solid 4th place, which makes me happy.
Didn't expected Liam delivered like this again.

Think this is a goodbye, hope not...

Yeah me to. But timebomb is what rhythm bomb wanted but failed to be. Timebomb is massive.

After every album since AONO, we say it's probably the last, and then it's not. :-D

We're going to end being right at some point, but I really hope we're not there yet.

I think high-pitched vocals are generally cheesy. Not all of them, but at least some. For example, I don't think Champions Of London needed such vocals.

He hasn't said anything in his interviews to indicate that it's the last album. He spoke on the Scroobius Pip podcast about always writing music and how he loves doing it.

I m with you, guys! Resonate is pure class. Champions of London is way too overrated.

My review having now finally fully heard it:

NS1: 3 Incredibly weak till the final 25 seconds where it becomes average.

LUTS: 5 It's ok, but Trawizz' mix is tonnes better. Bad editing ruins this track.

WLF: 8 Not as incredible as it first seemed, helped by the other three singles being mostly awful, but still a strong Prodigy old-school track.

NT: 7 It has its moments where it flirts with being VERY good but it's a lot of lost opportunity and it's quite repetitive. Still pretty good.

FFWF: 2 Just horrible - like a nasty hip hop track gone wrong mixed with the colours and piranha style of IMD. One of their worst-ever tracks. Only listened to it for a second time (ever) because I always listen to each album track once on first listen. I will never listen to it again. It's like a bed of nails.

TBZ: 6 Despise the chipmunk vocals - not the first time Liam's done this, and it will never work. Decent bass and melody in places though, and a generally good beat. A decent but not great track.

COL: 6 Vocals and repetition destroy what could have been a real album stonker. This one had me head banging from the start then Keith just came in and wouldn't shut up. Good beat, melody works quite well, but it's painfully limited and goes over and over again. A real missed opportunity.

BBT: 7 Some really good moments in this, but by no means a brilliant Prodigy track.

Res: 6 Puzzled by this one. Especially given the reaction on here where most are hearing it for the first time. Heard it many times before! Have they played this at gigs? Or did they sample it on their website or something? I can't remember. Anyway, repetitive as hell, and despite the big beat the rasta vocal does my head in. Meloday isn't great either.

GMAS: 5 By some distance the worst closing Prodigy album track. They usually do something a bit different for the final track and it's always been consistently great. This... isn't. It's just bland.

A total lack of the usual killer tracks on this - it honestly mostly feels like a bunch of B-sides and I wouldn't be shocked if that's exactly what it is hence the slightly quicker turnover in release.

This is by a tonne and away the worst Prodigy album ever.

Some of us were right to fear this. The negative reviews were spot on. WLF was a false dawn.
