the Prodigy

[dubman]

i dont feel like throwing AONO under the bus just yet. there was quite a bit of dross on that album, but there were some bright spots that felt like a left-turn, maybe had a small probablility of developing into something interesting later on. of course it didnt, but there was something resembling potential in there.

yet this album feels like end-game prodigy: the best album they could make after 20 years of existing. howlett's throwing everything he's got, and there's nothing to sneer at here, but nothing standing out that i'm getting hooked on either.
i'm fond of it because a flurry of beats like this is like watching a fun action movie that knows what it needs to do, but i'm going to try and find it used.
