New Prodigy track from “Reverb” movie soundtrack

I just got some links to the mp3 rip and downloaded the track (Shadow of the devil). What can I say? As far as I can hear Liam has totally switched to PC/MAC music producing, abd it absolutely sucks. Liam seems totally quit sampling as well, which is a pure suicide for the band. Of course, it’s just a b-side track for the soundtrack, but hey it’s “prodigy” labeled. There is a dozen of old b-side tracks from Experience, MFJG, FOTL eras which are much more rockin than any track from AONO or late b-sides.

Actually, I can’t get Liam. He’s got a whole studio full of top hardware, but no, Liam use “shorter” way to produce music these days - damn laptop (computer). The thing is that you can cheat technology, but you can’t cheat the art. There is no any short way to the art.

But still nice to hear anything else than just words from Prodigy! C ya!

Burn XL

THE PRODIGY are back with their own new label, and this time they’re doing it their way. Always fiercely independent, the band have decided to set up their new label Ragged Flag, which will be the platform for their next album release and will subsequently act as an outlet for new talent that they find.

Backed by UK Independent label Cooking Vinyl, the deal will allow the band to continue to enjoy total creative control over all aspects of their music and how it is presented.

Prodigy founder member Liam Howlett commented : ‘”We have been planning this for a while and we are looking forward to building our label up, starting off with the release of the new Prodigy album. We have recorded a few songs already for this next album and they are sounding big and mean!”

“The Prodigy are one of the most relevant bands to today’s world,” said Cooking Vinyl’s Managing Director Martin Goldschmidt. “It is a real honour to be entrusted with handling affairs for Ragged Flag. This is a fantastic start to 2007, and it is the start of a new era for Cooking Vinyl.”

Says Cooking Vinyl’s Product Director Rob Collins, “We can’t wait to start getting music out there and show everybody just how great this band is.”

Generally long-awaited and well-predicted news.. But I wouldn’t hurry to call it a good news. I’ve alread heard the “relevant”, “sounding big”. I haven’t heard any music from the label yet, and I suspect the new Prodigy album’s gonna be the last one for the Prodigy. I bet the guys are tired of being in the “relevant bands to today’s world”. And it seems it’s time to review their contracts. As an idle-fan of the Prodigy I’m tired of the Prodigy, I’m tired people lick band’s asses, I’m tired of pointless news, new eras, fantastic starts, “recorded few songs”.

Well, I’m curious what about XL? I assume they’re gonna wait for another Liam ‘impatient’ Howlett. Maybe I could resend them Liam’s demo tape to get a record deal, whacha think? Basically, I think XL’s gonna down. They’re too much conservative, they’re conservative so much I could call them lazy. If they weren’t lazy they could find a dozen of Liam Howlett’s around. They could become something more than just the Prodigy music store.

Generally long-awaited and well-predicted news.. But I’m not happy, the news sounds too damn cheap again..

Give me a fucking break

PRODIGY star KEITH FLINT is marrying MAYUMI KAI on Saturday — and I hear he’s invited some unlikely people.

I’m A Celeb weirdo DAVID GEST is due to show up with jungle king MATT WILLIS.

It was always set to be an odd day with a wildman like Keith getting hitched. But now David’s coming, it will be a freakfest.

The music mogul tells me he met Keith through his bandmate LIAM HOWLETT. And Liam is a good pal of David’s new bosom buddy LIAM GALLAGHER.

Hey, Sun, you’ve forgotten to include “the guy who saw … PARIS HILTON … blow job …and … BRITNEY SPEARS … ugly pussy” to improve the search ranking.
