Going back a few decades...The Prodigy...

My musical tastes are all over the place. Lately I’ve been down the neotrad/outlaw country wormhole. But tonight I ran across a few from my days as a wannabe club kid...figured I’d share. Man what a long time ago.

Prodigy has a solid 2 albums. Nothing similar to them in the mainstream in the 90s
Jilted and Fat of the Land are solid efforts

Fat of the Land was a terrific album. The Prodigy were a solid act.
Too bad you veered off into a redneck wormhole. :smh:

I am happy where I'm at as far as my musical preferences. I can still listen to this stuff with appreciation but also appreciate the musicianship of the newer neotrad stuff coming out of Country.
It's kind of ironic in that I love artists like BT and guys like this from my past. BT set a Guinness World Record-literally-for the number of edits in a single radio track on an album I dearly love. Yet the past few years I've come to revere any artist Dave Cobb produces or puts his fingers on a recording of as I find him a master of simplistic, get-the-hell-out-of-the-way-and-let-the-artist-and-the-song-do-the-work way of working.
Being able to appreciate both ends of the musical spectrum like that for me is definitely something that isn't lost on me.
There's a plethora of stuff between those two extremes on my musical metronome that I really dig as well. That I can embrace or find enjoyable a great deal of it to me ensures I'm never bored musically.

I was in that prime high school age when they started to get popular in the states. I fricking HATED them. I remember always hearing their music back then and just getting pissed off.

I just noticed I have 4 different versions of Baby's Got A Temper. I'm laughing at the a cappella version.

Remember when they were supposed to be the next big thing and revolutionize modern music?

Not really. I do remember listening to the whole album 3-4 times in a weekend while driving back and forth from home in Denham to La Tech up in Ruston. Definitely got me pumped up for a 4 hour drive on a lot of backroads.
I must apologize but back then-at the age of 18 and being 90 days out of high school, away from home from the first time-my thoughts weren’t drifting towards the potential tectonic shift that an electronic music act from England may have on the ripe-for-disruption music industry.
If I had to answer what I was thinking back then...gun to my head...it was how to get blown in my car by the girl from my Sociology class since my roommate who had Social Anxiety Disorder and wouldn’t leave my dorm room was completely fricking my game up that Summer Quarter.
Or something like that.
ETA: Sociology Sally got familiar with more than my ‘91 Corolla that Summer. Mission Accomplished. The End.

Yep. They absolutely were on track, then the weird lead singer drooled (literally) all over himself in front of the entire world performing at the mtv music awards and everyone said nevermind
Posted on 12/31/18 at 12:29 am to GFunk
MTV, Rolling Stone, Spin, and pretty much every other major music outlet were saying they would be the next big thing. Fat of the Land debuted at number 1 due to all the hype then they never really went anywhere, in America at least. They had a decent career in England. They're doing some of the US rock festivals in the spring.

Chemical Brothers had a five star album two years later.
The Prodigy were wonderful, however.

About the 3:10 mark. They were playing at a festival and they showed this (not sure if it was actually live or not considering the time difference). Anyways basically all everyone talked about the next day was how disgusting that was and that was it

That still delivers.
I was watching an old episode of New York Undercover and this tune was used in a climatic scene. So Awesome.

I don't remember that. But it seems mild compared to Johnny Rotten blowing snot rockets on people.

Oh definitely not, but you knew what you were getting with the sex pistols. Prodigy was hand picked to be the next big mainstream thing and, well they were a bit too eccentric for the masses.
