Well we all have the same old favs - Firestarter, Smack My Bitch Up etc... But I actually really like the title track of the new album, Invaders Must Die. It's bonkers huge... in fact the whole album is off the hook. Nobody does big beat like these guys.

Only seen them once, at a BDO and would LOVE to see them again!

smack my bitch up (chant version)

Seeing them play at my first BDO as the closing act, rain pouring down and as they started playing firestarter looking up to see all of the raindrops lit up as the strobes started and the sound kicked in. Normally I hate strobes but that was fucking dope!

Prodigy at 1997 BDO was my first gig ever and the gig that got me into dance music. I'll never forget the SEA of people going apeshit to Voodoo People.

Firestarter probably my fave..

smack my bitch up

definitely voodoo people

:musicman:

Probaby Smack my bitch up or voodoo people. I've never seen them live before so would be awesome!!!11

Fav would be a toss up of Voodoo People, Mindfields and Poison

Memory of them is from BDO 2002 seeing the whole entire crowd at the main stage moshing to smack my bitch up.

When I first got my hands on Music For The Jilted Generation in '94.... being slightly jilted myself, I chucked it on the CD player and BAM..... First the Intro then straight into "Break & Enter". I didnt know what had hit me....... think it was a turning point in my musical tastes!!

No Good or this one that goes "yeeeeeowwww tish... badoom tish... boom tish... badoom tish... yeoooow tish... badoom tish... boom tish... badoom tish..." Canny remember what tis called or what album, will go fishing...

I like one of their more recent songs 'Girls'.
Older stuff like Firestarter and Exhale take me back.

Jilted generation is the best album but Narayan is the best song by far.

I played Smack My Bitch up at Revolver in Melbourne last Friday night and it went offffffffffffffffffffffffffffffff.

There last BDO set where everyone rocked in and sercurity had no show of stopping people. Very electric vibe that couldnt put talked about in words.

Prodigy brings back a memory of being at a friends parents house for a cocktail party one night - about 10 of us. Would have been 14 years ago (when I was 1.

Myself and another girl accidently locked ourselves in the bathroom and had to climb out a 2 story window (sh*t-faced I might add).

I remember not wanting to let go of the windowsill before falling to my imminent death however my friend decided to bash my hands so I let go and landed in some shrubs. Didn't hurt myself (and neither did she).

I crawled around to the front yard and lay down in the grass and remember a prodigy song playing.

So many!

But probably Smack my bitch up for me

I don't want to be a sheep but probably Smack my bitch up too!

No good (Start to Dance)

My mate and I even had a special dance for every time it came on...

Fave track would have to be Spitfire, but they're all awesome!
Too many memories of dj flatmates back in the late 90s cranking them, and I'll never forget seeing them @ BDO 97, and the crowd going absolutely insane! <3 The Prodigy

Smack my bitch up - my memory is of nights out, picking up my girlfriend, she would put a mixed cd on in my car and we would sing to it on the way to the city, so much fun.

Firestarter - reminds me of my older brother he loved this song and the video that went with it, he played it quite a lot when we shared a house.

POISON is probably my fav song - they didnt play it at BDO this year (guttered bout that but it was awesome seeing them for my first time) nevertheless if i happen to win a ticket... i may however hear it at that

Fave memory - after months and months of searching (this was when the net was in its infancy) managing to find a copy of their mega-rare debut 12", the "What Evil Lurks" EP, when I was 14 and getting serious about collecting all of their releases.

Fave memory would have to be seeing them at the 2002 BDO when I was 15. This was the last year before the D barrier was introduced. Just in time for their set the rain started, which turned out to be awesome because when there are 25,000 people waiting to watch them it was getting damn hot. It's still one of my favourite performances from the BDO in the last 8 years.. the mosh was incredible. Not a messy one but everyone seemed to be in perfect harmony and it makes me question why the D barrier was implemented. I guess for some of the heavier rock/metal acts the mosh does devolve into a bunch of people smacking the crap out of each other though.

When they dropped Smack My Bitch Up and Firestarter. My god that was awesome.

Memory: I was about 14 or 15 and my parents had given me some money only to be used for supplies (which were needed) whilst they went away for a day. Wandering through the mall to pick up said supplies I see the Fat of Land advertisement in the record store, quickly changing tac I ventured in, put some headphones on and after a couple minutes deliberation a decision was made to purchase the album with supplied cash.

Not to long after that Prodigy of course came to play at the Super Top. Seeing the concert for free was pretty awesome, but the highlight was seeing my other mate superman tackled from a side of frame point of view after jumping the fence and of course diverting attention away from us.

My first BDO in 2002. I was 15, lost all my mates and had no battery on my phone. Decided to go watch The Prodigy by myself. Was mindblowing, well worth it!!

Favourite Song: Breathe.

Favourite Vid: Smack my Bitch Up.

Memory: Fun times dancing and discovering phat beats.

Best memory of the Prodigy is from 98ish when they played in the supertop, regurgitator supported them (when they were good) and the Bass was the biggest I have ever heard from any soundsystem during prodigys set.

But what really sticks in my mind is being close to the front and seeing Keith Flint with drool over a foot long hanging from his mouth during the whole performance, man must have been on some serious drugs, and he was doing that firestarter crazy eyes thing. Seen em a couple of other times but this one was unforgettable...

Out of Space

Fave video: Everybody in the place. Dancing and outfits rock balls
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nBYVD1T9gFQ

Fave song: Death of the Prodigy dancer. Utterly ravetastic
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=J0wRXY6Us5c

Fave memory: Seeing them at the Supertop at some point. Solidified my plan of becoming a dancer for Prodigy which, although it has yet to come to fruition, is still very much on target :>

id have to say smack my bitch up!

FIRESTARTER - THE PRODIGY!

i remember being really young and cranking Pridgy really loud and head banging with my brother lol....

I remember the 3 singles from the fat of the land album coming out, before the album itself and just getting more and more hyped about the release, going down and buying it on the first day and pretty much thrashing it to death for the next few weeks.

They also played Glastonbury this year and proved they still had it... I specifically remember they rolled out Breathe and the first half was awesome, but then they really took t to 11...slowed it down by about half with some filthy bass rocking across the crowd.

No Good (Start to Dance) is my favourite track of theres. Plus i really like there album before last... with spitfire etc on it.

i remember watching The Prodigy from the banks at one of the first BDO's.

My favourite memory would have to be when I listened to Music For The Jilted Generation for the first time in high school. I was competely blown away and my love for electronic music was born!

I love the video for Smack my Bitch up! very cool that they showed the character as being a woman.

Also I remember being something like 17 years old and seeing Keith Flint at a hairdressers in town getting his hair died and fancied up for the BDO!

I got his autograph :>

Voodoo People.

i was actually front row for their proformance at BDO nothing beats getting their sweat flicked on you. amazing!
favourite song would have to be spitfire. ha

What if one of them took a leak on you?
Surely that would be considered more of a trophy if you're into that sort of thing?

A few years ago at the St james, and I can't remember the event, me and my girlfriend met Leroy who is the prodigy's DJ.

He was doing a DJ set there in one of the smaller rooms.

We got chatting with him before he played and it turned out me and him grew up about 15 miles apart in Essex!

Needless to say we got on like a house on fire chatting away and getting photos taken.

He played an amazing set just absolutely storming.

My girlfriend danced non stop in front of him for over 2 hours and was texting him with requests to play some prodigy songs.

He dropped the Prodigy tracks at the end of his set and it was fucking fantastic... loud, sweaty, big fat bass and the dance floor just going mental... the essence of dance music for me.

If you ever get a chance to see The Prodigy or Leroy live just DO IT they are amazing live.

Dean

Jericho Have always loved this track

Z_blaze

<-- Yaksha btw

The Prodigy - Breathe

Remember seeing them play at the BDO over 10 years ago. They rocked the BDO soooo hard, what I love about the stage show is the sheer Energy. So much excitement going on stage!!

Yet to see these guys live so I reckon I'll be going free ticket or not. Big fan of poison but love the heavy baseline in Diesel Power the most.

Listening to them as a 10 year old kid on cassette tape, the live version of Poison... and then the Remedy.. (or something very similar to that... it was a long time ago) 2 tracks either side... I thought I was awesome... My fav memory of prodigy/fav tracks

Favourite time was when they were doing the FAT OF THE LAND tour..

We sorta heard they were staying at the Carlton hotel, and we decided to check and wait for some time. Reception would'n't have a bar of us, as due to confidentiality clauses etc.. we waited for 30mins, and we were about to give up. We just said.. fark it! lets join those peeps going into the Elevator ..and hit the top floor.
We managed to get to the Top Floor, and walked down the foyer..and heard the loudest noise coming from the Room. We knocked, and one of the event managers answered and in our late teens asked if prodigy were there, he said nah! But Maxim came out..and said..BRO!!! we'll be down in a sec! and yeah.. we saw the whole lot briefly in the room.
Went downstairs and waited 10mins.
Got photos with Liam, Leeroy maxim. Fuck yeah!!!!
Got our T-shirts signed and pix.
Had the best night at the Boiler room!!!
How do i get one of the pix uploaded for here?
lol ...coz i aint lying!

Damn, gotta find it first.
Anyways, this is one of my best memories with Prodigy. Still got the Autographed shirt.. MINT!!!

Definitely out of space

Remember when i was younger the i used to be scared of em!

I liked Fire, Jericho, Music Reach etc from their old stuff and I'm absolutely loving their new album. Especially Take me to the hospital and Thunder.

Not the first I heard, But my favourite.

I missed them at BDO last time so I was so gutted I didn't see them, I like their older stuff, but they would be awesome live as I've never been to a concert before

Voodoo People of course!

Definately would have to be Firestarter and Smack my bitch up! When i saw them live it was literally insane and have never forgotten the experince....love to see them live again!

Big tings I recall was their standalone "Starbait" gig, the year the BDO didn't happen. Helped by the fact we were tripping balls, but it was still an awesome show.

I don't have many Prodigy memories cos I missed the boat and found them late, but I want to make some by going to the concert, hence why I want to win the ticket. Hope that counts as an entry

Their law. loved it since i was young always will, really need to see these guys live!!

Seen Prodigy three times now.. fucking epic. Saw them in concert in Brisvegas last January.... *swoon*

Their Law! That's it...

Some great posts in here. We will draw these next week.

BREATHE!!!

Charly.

Weather Experience was was kinda nice in certain moments too.

Got to be Charly
The first album experiance is just amazing

Voodoo people!!

they used the pendulum remix for Bodyjam classes a couple of years ago and it went off!!!

waiting waiting

Gotta be Thunder, amazing song, vocals sound like Dubfx!

I used to play Smack my Bitch Up and proceed to take the advice the song had offered when we lost all blacks games.

That picture in the gatefold of music for a jilted generation gets me everytime-started my dirty little spiral in the life of deviant electronics! Picture still holds true today for certain situations!

Music for a jilted generation-deft worth keeping!

Fav memory would have to be big day out 2002(ish ;P), me and a few mates were in the stands waiting for them to come on ready to make a move for the stage when they started, alas we realized they were about to start and it was too late we only managed to get about half way down the stadium stairs when BOOM... music starts and the ocean of people started to bounce! I've never seen waves of ravers rolling like they did that day, you could grab a surf board and have one narly time.

Fortunatly we manage to join the exstatic mass of partiers by the second song and the mayhem began

This has to be not only my favourite prodigy memory but my favourite rave momory to boot!

I really like their latest album! My favorite tune (from their older album) is definitely Smack my bitch up and Omen from the new album

Favourite Prodigy memory would be listening to Breathe super-loud while dancing around my best friend's bedroom when we were 14, we went totally nuts and were as excited as if we were seeing them live!

My fave was that same performance when everyone fucked off stage expect Liam and he played The Narcotic Suite.. Skylined & The Claustrophobic Sting.. HELL. YEAH. AAACCCCEEEEDDD!!



Still hold him as my yardstick for true live electronica performance..

Oh.. and..



I still have most their albums and 12's on vinyl..

When I had to get someone else to buy The fat of the land CD for me when I was like 13 'cause it had one of those explicit lyrics stickers on the front and my mum would have lost the plot.

Weather Experience is massive, always been a fan.

Probably Voodoo People, I even have their album on vinyl and still love the High Dosage remix.

Fav performance was BDO 2002 I think.

BDO last year was EPIC. First time they played some of the new tracks and it was dope.

Really like the new album and Invaders Must Die is HUGE ...

Fav tracks from each of their albums ==

Experience: Out Of Space
Music for the Jilted Generation: Voodoo People
The Fat of The Land: Smack My Bitch Up
Always Outnumbered, Never Outgunned: Hotride

Fav memory - At a huge house party, with everyone there dancing their heart out and having the song firestarter come on, and everyone going wild. <3
