Re: prodigy - who the fuck is eddy cochran?
Well, i haven't completely given up on the Prodigy, but joethelion, i do agree with you completely that Liam tends to recycle to a noticeable and almost pathetic extent.
I still enjoy "Always Outnumbered Never Outgunned", some cool tracks on it, but without Keith Flint or Maxim on vocals, it seems a little bit like someone else. And compared with the previous records, it seems rather basic.
Prodigy have evolved a lot from their candy-rave days, but MFTJG and FOTL had that characteristic snarl and excitement that much of AONO and latter output lacks.
Maybe im's still remembering 1997 when "Firestarter" and "Breathe" and "SMBU" seemed so edgy, but i still go "whoa" when listening to FOTL. It's just a relentless, well-produced monster. Here's hoping the next album is a return to form.
