Prodigy - Genius or Pathetic? (dancing, electronic, dance, hardcore)

kiki chunt · 04-26-2005, 03:52 PM

Not genius perhaps, but brilliant in places - and the perfect antidote to too much insipid girly house music, should you feel the need.

Punk dance music - worth mentioning that this is the outfit that crossed the divide between the cheesy quavers and the rawk crew: the act you could finally rave to if you were too rock/indie/alt to deal with all that 'faceless techno bollocks'

Last two singles in UK were choice cuts, but vanished completely without a trace: Juliette Lewis (Natural Born Killers, Strange Days etc) did guest vocals for 'Hot Ride' too - my mp3 player track of the moment - listen to it while cycling to work, gets me there WAY faster.

I got the poison.
I got the remedy.
I got the pulsating rhythmical remedy.

They still remain one of my favourite bands of all time, although AONO features the slowest beats The Prodigy have ever made, it still is one of theire best albums. I think personally my eclectic tastes make all four albums good to my ears. Obviously some people will not like all of their stuff or indeed, none of it at all. They are certainly not pathetic, then again i think genius is perhaps a bit ahead of The Prodigy at the moment, but who knows, the next album should arrive in a few years so we will have to wait and see.

I quite like the Prodigy. I think the beats and backing are fantastic, but the lyrics are complete rubbish and the delivery is pretty annoying.
