I dunno why but this album didn’t excite me at all. It kind of sounded like a parody of their back catalogue... not bad, but nothing special?

Oops was about to ask if the rest of the album was as good as "Are You Here?" then realised that's by The Presets not The Prodigy :lol
Listened to this today again and I find it quite upbeat and good 7/10!
Brilliant choice - 'Timebomb Zone' is probably my favourite song from the album now *.* got round to listening to it last weekend.
Yeh it's be a good choice - thought they'd go for Champions of London!

^ this being released has just become sadly ironic today, especially as Keith had vocals on this song... :(

 

I guess this is likely to be the last album they ever release now, I hope I'm wrong but I don't see them being able to carry on without one of their core members.

Probably wouldn’t have revisited this album if it wasn’t for the tragic news. Sounds much better a few months on, having familiarised myself with some of the tracks in their own right.

 

"We Live Forever" has stood out in particular today - hadn’t realised it was the new single either. Haunting.

I saw them live a few years back and they were great

They did a sorta greates hits live but was very entertaining

 

Not sure about the band future but they could still go on

(dance albums is download sales only which is why TFOTL is ahead of TL)

Under awful circumstances but it's great to see 'Firestarter' returning so high, I really didn't think it'd even be able to go top 100 under the current chart rules let alone as high as #58 (would have been top 40 if it weren't on ACR quite possibly? although it would have been more download-based than most other songs around it so maybe not). Their first appearance in the singles chart since 'Nasty' scraped in at #98 in 2015, and before that 'Invaders Must Die' scraping a re-entry at #99 in mid 2010. 'Breathe' can't have been too far off getting a top 100 re-entry as well, not that we'll ever know that for sure. And of course fantastic for them to have 3 entries in the albums top 40 too and two more sneaking in the low top 100.

 

Positions on the singles sales chart:

#8 Firestarter

#18 Breathe

#37 Out Of Space

#44 Smack My Bitch Up

#50 No Good (Start The Dance)

#56 Voodoo People

#69 Omen

#86 Warrior's Dance

Judging by the songs around them in the dance chart, 'Firestarter' would've been top 40 and 'Breathe' top 65 (possibly top 60) if they weren't on ACR.
No Tourists sounding amazing for me again, Timebomb Zone is the song I'm currently listening to most(their last single) but I shall add We Live Forever soon!

I would be expecting some final release to come from the Prodigy at some point of this year end.

There is likely to be many unreleased tracks lying in the vaults somewhere.
