"Memphis Bells" kicks my ass. "Shot Down" with that twat from Oasis is good as well. I'm gonna wait to hear the rest.

It's shite.
The only track I like is Shoot Down because the way Gallagher sings on it sounds like Keith.

I've only listened to it for a couple of minutes, it's sounding very electrotech though, which is a good thing :p
 
Eh, I feel like this album is everything that I didn't want it to be. I mean, seriously, in 1997 Prodigy was at the top of their game in terms of perfecting the electronic sound. This album just sounds dated and stale. There's much better electronic music out there, that's better produced, sounds refreshing, and actually has good vocals. This album is good for the clubs, but not much else.

album is called:

Always outnumbered - Never outgunned

And it's a f*cking good album! Spitfire, Wake up call and Action Radar are the best songs.

Agreed. Actually, I would call it tame as well. This seems so much lighter than the hard hitting stuff back in '97.

Actually the 1994 smash hit Music for the Jilted Generation is their best album by far...

Jilted Generation was their best album, and pretty much every much critic in the world agrees on that. Fat of the Land was hard hitting, heavy and badass. It's a testament to their craft, that both albums sounds pretty damn awesome even today, after all these years. Hell, even some songs from 'Experience' still sound awesome and fresh (Out of Space, anyone? That remix of the Everybody in the Place?)

As for the new album, I absoletely loved the 'Girls', and can't wait to get the rest. Wouldn't mind if anyone would shoot me up a PM with the link, if there is one ;)

Gimme, gimme, gimme. Names, please :)))

Jilted feels less dated than this album. I am going to kill myself. All my electronic heroes failde me :(
 
After listening to all the songs alot i have decided that this album sucks.

None of the songs are anygood. None are horrible but none are good either. Left me with a "meh" feeling.

saw them live back in 97, that was some experience.
Same here! Man, that was crazy stuff. Sports stadium with at least 10000 people... incredible experience.

Hmmm, who for example? Last Underworld was very good, and so is Crystal Method. Chemical Brother had an awesome song in Lost in Translation. Orbital's has been on the steady decline with their last two albums, but the new single is very promissing.

Meat Beat Manifesto were doing this shit since forever. Prodigy owe them plenty.

As for the album. Crap. Girls is particularly rubbish, being a cynical, derivative, and uninspired take on electro a good number of years too late.

Thoroughly disappointing stuff.
