It's an AONO-era track retooled for the game. Nothing more. Their next album is still going to kick ass.

hmmmmm, sounds a lot like experience vs. AONOG. Very basic and electro. Still can't wait to hear the rest of their new stuff.

i absoltly loved it! I thought it was a large improvment over "fat of the land" which was my least favorite prodigy album.

people liked AONO?



He put on a turn-down collar, a black bow, and wore his Sunday tail-coat. As such, he looked spruce, and what his clothes would not do, his instinct for making the most of his good looks would.

I meant that it was probably a song made during the AONO era, but scrapped because it was, as you all said, too flat for album release. AONO was a rushed album, but they're not rushing anymore. The next one will be a real shot in the arm.


That having been said, I actually don't think Shadow is too terrible a song (from the sample) and I'm eager to add it to my big ol' Prodigy collection.


P.S. They're AMAZING live. I mean REALLY amazing.

Prodigy is my 2nd favorite band of all time.


I do love them very much.

The song in the demo, is a AONO song re-worked by prodigy for the new video for project gotham.


This is simply a taste of some newer prodigy.


The next album, from what I've heard from my sources, is gonna be something to bow down to.


I know I sure will.


Once more Prodgiy is a band I know more about than anyone you'll ever meet. I have seen them live 3 times, I had to go to California last year to see them, and it was great!!!!!

I missed seeing Prodigy at the Dubai Desert Rock a few months back - they were the only electronica act on the all rock and metal bill, and played mainstage just before Maiden - they tore the place apart from what I heard - folks who "hate" dance music went absolutely fuckin nuts with the energy they created live - it's a dream to see them live - that said the Prodigy were once my fav act along with the Chems - with time Chems proved much more deeper and longer shelf life - I hardly spin my Prodigy albums anymore, except once a blue moon - Experience was certainly a gem - things went a bit downhill from there - I did like AONO a whole lot - it was like a serious demo on Reason.

I hope they go back to their big hardware lush sound with the new album - any dates?

The Prodigy has always been one of my favorite bands (since the days of Android and Charly, the What Evil Lurks EP) and Liam Howlett is one of my heroes. He can rock like none other. His Dirtchamber Sessions mix-CD is a must-hear for everyone, it gives you a good idea about where he gets his inspiration from. I've seen them perform (well, perform, Liam doesn't do much except just standing there behind his rig) in Amsterdam and it was fuckin crazy. It felt more like a punk concert than anything else, but it was absolutely great.

AONO (still) sucks balls. The only good songs on it are Hotride and Medusa's Path.

Hell no! Action radar is a great song. So is Girls. The album is great.

How could AONO be anyone's FAVORITE Prodigy album?...... although I've heard people in here saying that Come With Us is their favorite Chemical Brothers album, so... to each his own :)


All of the AONO tracks have been vastly improved for live performance. If they released AONO with the retooled tracks, it'd be pretty awesome. Spitfire live ftw!

Aw, Prochem... how can you dislike Fat of the Land so much?


Smack My Bitch Up pwned me back in the day, and made me a Prodigy fan forever.

Oh ok, just opinions.
