THE PRODIGY
“THEIR LAW - THE SINGLES 1990-2005”
2xCD, PLUS DVD RELEASE
XL RECORDS
RELEASE DATE: FEBRUARY 28, 2006

“Their Law- The Singles 1990-2005” deluxe double-disc set includes a
colorful 50 page booklet and the numerous singles that changed the face
of British music. Recently landing the #1 Spot on the UK album charts,
'Their Law' features all The Prodigy's Top 20 singles, plus new, previously unreleased tracks - “Razor”, “Back 2 Skool”, “Voodoo Beats” and a remix of “Under my Wheels”. That same day, XL will be releasing a spectacular DVD set of the same name, highlighting the controversial “Smack My Bitch Up” video, the groundbreaking clip for “Firestarter” and footage from various Prodigy live performances. Look forward to jaw-dropping scenes from Brixton Academy (1997), Red Square in Russia (1997), and Glastonbury (1995). They've always done it in their own formidable way - as highlighted on 'Their Law'.

The Prodigy crossed over to shock the mainstream with an incendiary live
experience that approximated the original atmosphere of the British rave scene even while leaning close to arena-rock showmanship and punk theatrics. It was musician / producer Liam Howlett whose studio wizardry launched The Prodigy to the top of the charts, spinning a web of hard-hitting breakbeat techno with king-sized hooks and unmissable samples. Despite electronic music's diversity and quick progression during the 1990s, Liam modified the Prodigy's sound sparingly; swapping the rave-whistle effects and ragga samples for metal chords and chanted vocals, which proved the only major difference in the band's evolution from their debut to their worldwide breakthrough with their third
album The Fat of the Land.

The Prodigy are: Liam Howlett, Maxim, Keith Flint

"Their Law" will be available in standard deluxe (CD1 and CD2) formats.

we're going to see them at the nokia theatre! :)

every single song off of experience is amazing

Fuck Them
And Their Law

i want to go.


music for the jilted generation!!!

People still care about The Prodigy?

I'm stunned. Fucking stunned.

Then again, I thought they were shit to begin with.

Those are mah dawgs!!!!!

Love them...seeing them at Nokia and then at Ultra.....so stoked....

unless anyone else has discovered this the tickets for the show in NYC are $140 EACH. seriously why does this country see it necessary to FK every living fan of anything in the Back... I love the prodigy but FKin christ 140 BUCKS they must be out of there minds...go to Ultra spend half that and see a million Djs who kick ass.

hi devo

tickets are 35 bucks each. check ticketmaster. maybe you tried to buy 4 and saw the total instead of the individual price?

I was skeptical about them as well until I saw them in Argentina. Those guys KNOW live shows.

The Prodigy are one of the most important groups in music of the last 20 years. Any band that can get the reaction that Fat of the Land did, or that can make 2 albums as good as the first 2 deserves a GC, imo.

You're the first person I've ever heard say they think the Prodigy are shit. I'm actually in shock.

Linds, myself, and loads (like 20) friends went to the gig at the beginning of September, and it was absolutely superb. All about the massive mosh pit :beer: :beer: :beer:

Definitely the best gig I've been to since Orbital in Summer 2004.

I went to the site for nokia theatre and it gave me the price of 140 soo bizzare anywho...bought 2 tix for the show off of ticketmaster thanks Jp for tellin me that info I dunno what I was thinkin.

Im ready to smack my bitch up.

adam freeland is going to be there on the 22nd @ nokia as well :)

rly? cool

rly! ;)

Just heard about this and went on to ticketmaster and it says there are no more tickets
:(

last night's show was fun! i've been to the nokia theater a couple times before and have always been impressed--comfortable, great sound system, professional...last night they opened up the seating area which was perfect :D place was packed, prodigy performed their hits as promised--highlights for me...firestarter, poison, smack my bitch up, out of space :)

don't forget voodoo people, breathe, the law. Man what a great show.

I assumed seats where always open, they where for Jamiroquai when i saw them perform there.

i love the Nokia venue.

So hear goes my comments for the evening. as a Dj watching adam freeland i was pretty bored i love breakbeats and house and techno and i was about to fall asleep with his musical selection. I fkin love prodigy but i thought that the show looked alil to scripted just got the live dvd and watched the older shows from like 97 and it doesnt look like onstage antics and the flow of the show actually changed that much. I have to admit i was a bit dissapointed with the flow of the show. it was more like a Metal band with synths than a electronic performance...having the show practically stop after everysong was a bit annoying , at the end liam went on like a 4 song mix and I was lovin it...i mean the reason i dont go to Band concerts anymore is cause I dontl like the waiting inbetween songs...just keep PLAYING...besides that the quality was amazing but was alil dissapointed in the "LIVE" aspects not to many remixs in which i hadnt heard and didnt really seam like they were straying at all from the originals..which is a dissapointment. I have to agree tho highlights for me were all their old songs..the newer ones werent doin it for me. thats my take..any other thoughts?

Ohh did anyone else notice that when adam freeland was at the end of his run they started turning the volume way down just as his led zeplin remix was kickin into full effect he noticed the volume change stopped the music and threw the turntable to the ground and walked off stage all pissed...

Many, many, many of the top billed edm "live" stuff is not very live. Fucking up might mean a difference in cd sales. Quite a few live acts are presequenced and simply embellish effects or maybe have a singer or guitar or bass to give the idiots something to look at. There are very few live acts that really work their shit live to the nth details due to how big and complex a touring rig that is or what kind of random sound might allienate a crowd that is largely only seeking ot hear their favorite album versions.

As lovely as it is, most of hte dance music industry is a sham and racket.

I dont care for any of the prodigys works, but respect what it did for global rave culture.

Bothered.

It was still one of the best nights out of my life.

Prodigy was on and off. Almost seemed like a novelty act at times. Other times, the show rocked...Spitfire, Smack My Bitch Up, Poison made the walls shake. My fave part was when they closed with Out of Space, great song...worth seeing, but only if you are/were a fan.
