seraph Posted October 8, 2005 Share Posted October 8, 2005 Huh, I've just came back from after PRODIGY party that happend last night. F@ck ! It was F.A.N.T.A.S.T.I.C. !!! I wasn't hoping for anything special and thought they will turn commerical and not caring for live act but they WERE BACK, like they were at the peak of their career ! This twisted cyber neo punk techno style was even more progressed and many new stuff I haven't heard by now sounded like new, fresh visions of old Prodigy ( in sound and feel ), twisted, mad, hard and utopical, their sound was AMAZING ! I still can't get over perfect 90 minutes they presented last night, I am still GOB SMACKED ! PRODIGY definitely still rule, I thought they lost their TOUCH, but this was pure TOUCHE ! Whoever has their live act in their country should definitely go, they really know how to manipulate with the crowd and make real hard spectacle.

Cinos Posted October 8, 2005 Share Posted October 8, 2005 They have/had one live somewhere around here, but their newest CD just sucks too much for me to take any risk. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
seraph Posted October 8, 2005 Author Share Posted October 8, 2005 They have/had one live somewhere around here, but their newest CD just sucks too much for me to take any risk. 354226[/snapback] I thought of it too, expecting average commercial live act but I got 20 x more, I was really blown away...Even their old stuff sounded more pitched and messed with, so, they sounded even better than originals, and their new stuff, after AO, NO was more like old stuff sounding but much more progressed style...if they make new album like that, it will surely be a BLAST OFF...

I paid 18 euros for 90 minutes...Huh, they improved themselves. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alpha Posted October 9, 2005 Share Posted October 9, 2005 great to hear that, i'm gonna see them in just 2 weeks. i have no doubts that it'll be great, even though i didn't really care for the latest album. last time i saw them was in '97 and it was phenomenal.. can't wait to see them again but over here the prize is really high, 48 euros.. hope it's worth it i'm really anticipating the new "their law" double cd that's out in this month too.

Guest Posted October 9, 2005 Share Posted October 9, 2005 kind of unnecessary, especially to someone (like me) who has all their albums. except maybe the Japanese edition (the 2nd cd) who i think has 2 new tracks, not sure. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cinos Posted October 9, 2005 Share Posted October 9, 2005 Good opportunity for someone like me to get all their good stuff without all the carbage. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fugpuggler Posted October 9, 2005 Share Posted October 9, 2005 wow, you make these guys sound good! i dont know almost anything about that breaks style, other than i like crystal method for the darker sound and not fatboy or chemical bros cuz to me it seems theyre just beats and not much substance. i know prodigy has a darker mood to them, but i never really listened to them other than a couple songs, whats the first album i should check out?

OK, experience was a breakthru and was legendary, but it sounds too childish, dunno how to explain. p.s. it's been a while that i want to see them live, 2 bad they don't come to IL.
