Why are they not touring North America?

They came out here at the end of August into September when they played Riot Fest in Denver, Chicago, and Toronto.Originally Posted by Deepvoid
Rumors are going around that they will come back in 2016 to play some shows... but nothing confirmed sadly.
I actually asked Liam on his Instagram account what was up and he said "We come when we're asked" or some BS.
Apparently all of the fans bugging them on their Facebook page to come to the States isn't enough.
We never really get a full on tour over here.
The last tour was back in 2009 for Invaders Must Die, which I believe was split up.
First they came and played the east coast and then came back to play the west coast a little bit later.
But yeah, I want a damn US tour!

Always loved this rework they did of "Break And Enter" for the live shows...
Luckily got to experience this live when they played NYC for the Their Law Tour in 2005

Here's another rarity that never got a proper release...
WE EAT RHYTHM
This track was written around/just after the Music For The Jilted Generation era, featured on the home video/behind the scenes/live/music video collection called "Electronic Punks" released only on VHS.

Here's the original version of "We Eat Rhythm" that was going to be featured on Jilted, but had to be cut due to CD's time constraints...
I was nobody. Nothing.
Wow @neorev .
Thanks for turning me on to all those old demos.
As far as Liam's comments, i have a dear friend who goes by Mass Destruction who books shows in dallas. He was trying to book prodigy a few years ago.
They wanted $5000, PLUS hotel, flights, food, etc.
Maybe THAT's what Liam was referring to-they come to work if they are gonna get paid, you know what i mean?
MD wound up booking all kinds of great shows and continues to do so-just recently he booked Dara and DJ SS on the same night!
The few venues to which he has access just wouldn't fit enuff people to cover a prodigy show that would probably wind up costing a promoter 10 g's

The Prodigy just uploaded a video for The Day Is My Enemy (LH Edit)
This is a studio mix of the version they perform live with a faster BPM, extra little chops/cuts, and FX.
I prefer it over the album version, the faster BPM gives it more energy.
This will be included on the expanded edition digital release tomorrow.

Absolutely loving this...

Seeing Prodigy live is still on my bucket list and I wasn't going to cross it off with a shitty Riotfest lineup.
They get treated like Gods across the sea, so I'm wondering if they just aren't into stepping down in terms of venue size and general fan interest.

Always good to hear some of The Prodigy's music in trailers...

Nothing like shutting down Moscow's Red Square for a Prodigy concert...

So neorev, are you aware of any non-album/remix material from the FOTL era besides the obvious b-sides (Trick, Molotov Bitch, No/One Man Army)? Like remixes or stuff he did back then that carried the same style of the album...?
Active Member
You mean remixes Liam did of himself? Not other people remixing them?
Ghost Town, a cover of The Specials is a leftover FOTL era track, there's actually two versions of this track with slightly different structures, one featured on NME Warchild Presents 1 Love comp & Independents Day comp. It was actually played once live at Reading 1998 with Maxim and Keith provided vocals. The released version is mainly instrumental, except for a vocoder voice.
No Man Army (Edit) is a faster version of the Smack My Bitch Up single's b-side track of the same name, which is an instrumental version of One Man Army with additional synths/sounds and featured on the Their Law: The Singles 1990-2005 bonus disc
Back 2 Skool is another leftover track featured on the same Their Law bonus disc. It was first premiered live in 2002 at Leeds Festival as an intro and elements were featured as background loops on their official site.
Voodoo Beats is Liam's remix of The Chemical Brothers' remix of Voodoo People also on the Their Law bonus disc, written and performed live during FOTL era
Diesel Power (Dirtchamber Mix) is Liam's own remix of the track featured on XL Recordings' Against The Grain compilation
Also during this time Liam provided a track to a porno movie called The Uranus Experiment, which featured the first zero gravity ejaculation shot. This is NOT a joke. 3D from Massive Attack also provided music and that's how Liam got involved. The song was called Titan, but only a rip from the actual porno exists. This actually lead to Liam and 3D collaborating on what was suppose to be a new Prodigy track called No Souvenirs. It was meant to be included on the soundtrack to the movie The Beach, but was pulled last minute because they thought it was "too good to be wasted on a film soundtrack." There are two versions of this track, both described in the official autobiography by Martin James. It was being worked on more and was suppose to be included on Always Outnumbered, Never Outgunned, only to never surface. This song has still never been released nor heard, except for when UNKLE put up their remix of the track. No Souvenirs was meant to be a single, with UNKLE and another artists unnamed providing remixes. The UNKLE remix is out there, but Liam got pretty pissed off about it and has no plans to release the original track.
Those are pretty much the only Liam produced tracks from that era. He didn't do much remix work.
XL re-released The Fat Of The Land on its 15th anniversary with a bonus disc, sadly that disc featured newly commissioned remixes from Noisia, Baauer, Major Lazer, Zeds Dead, The Glitch Mob, and Alvin Risk
I am sadly VERY, very, very knowledgeable about The Prodigy as they are my favorite band of all time and I have been closely following them since the 4th grade. So if you got any questions or want to know about other unreleased or rare tracks from other album era, all you gotta do is ask. I can never get enough of talking about The Prodigy

And in case you may not know, during their down period once FOTL tour had ended around '99 and the first phase of AONO in 2001...
Maxim came out with his own solo album called Hell's Kitchen, which Liam did some production on his tracks Scheming and My Web. Hell's Kitchen features Maxim working with many guests, especially with hip hop artists. He would later release another solo album called Fallen Angel.
Maxim recently started releasing trap music as We Are Noize
Leeroy, the dancer, left the band due to non-stop touring destroying his knees. He went on to release his own music as Flightcrank. He later would hook up with DJ Hyper for a couple of albums. Recently he has released music under his own name and part of the duo Smash Hi-fi.
Keith Flint started his own alternative punk band called FLINT, featuring The Prodigy's live guitarist/Pitchshifter guitarist Jim Davies, and live drummer Keiron Pepper, current-Prodigy live bassist Rob Holiday, and additional drummer Tony Howlett. Their album Device 1 was produced with Youth and was promo'd but never officially released on a label. They even released a single called Aim 4 with a music video directed by Jonas Akerlund, the same guy who directed the infamous Smack My Bitch Up video. They also remixed and were featured on Marilyn Manson's Mobscene single.
FLINT's album would never actually get a official release, but their song NNNN (No Name No Number) would be turned into The Prodigy's single Baby's Got A Temper. Baby's Got A Temper was meant to be the first single for theiralbum Always Outnumbered, Never Outgunned.When the single was released in 2002 and got bashed by critics, Liam scrapped the several tracks he had at that point and started completely over. Another one of FLINT's tracks was Prodigized but scrapped, this was called Razor and was finally released to fans on the Their Law: The Singles 1990-2005 compilation's bonus disc.Some of these scrapped Prodigy tracks were played live during 2001 and 2002 and videos of them can be found online, such as the tracks Trigger and Nuclear. Trigger was reworked with the Gallagher brothers and turned into Shoot Down and was eventually released on 2004's[B] Always Outnumbered, Never Outgunned.
Fans have begged for them to release the scrapped tracks with no luck.

You know the track Serial Thrilla?
Well it was last track written for the album... but before it was Serial Thrilla, it was a live jam known as Lyrical Terrorist...
You'll hear elements of Serial Thrilla in this live jam played in 1996.

Here's another track called Rock N' Roll that first debuted around the Music From The Jilted Generation era.
Over the years it evolved and resurfaced in 1998 during FOTL tour.
It would never get an official release, but Liam re-used the Kool Keith lyric sample that Maxim sings over on the track You'll Be Under My Wheels off Always Outnumbered, Never Outgunned

A little live jam for Maxim to freestyle over called Prepare For The Rush...

During FOTL tour, they used to do this jam with the beats from Narayan for Maxim to freestyle over...
Sadly, Maxim doesn't freestyle and do his thing like he used to live... miss the old days.

Towards the end of FOTL era tours, they played this track a few times while over in Greece...

If you wanted to hear what Voodoo People would sound like if Liam wrote it during FOTL era.
Fucking love this version, he went and used parts of the Chemical Brothers' remix to create his own new version.
This is the closest you'll ever get to The Prodigy & The Chemical Brothers collaborating on a song.

Here's a fun and useless fact...
As I mentioned on the last page, The Prodigy collaborated with Massive Attack on a track called No Souvenirs that was suppose to be featured in the Danny Boyle film The Beach based on Alex Garland's novel. Alex Garland also wrote the screenplay for 28 Days Later as well as direct and write Ex Machina. Alex is actually a close friend of the band. Go back to your Experience CD/vinyl and look again at the person credited for the cartoon drawings of the band members on the inner sleeve. Yup, it's the very same Alex Garland behind those dated silly looking cartoon drawings.
Hope you enjoyed that useless fun fact.

Looks like The Prodigy are coming to the States to play Ultra Music Festival in Miami taking place on March 18th, 19th, & 20th...
http://ultramusicfestival.com/lineup/
Hopefully that means the US will get some solo dates. The last time they played Ultra, it was during Invaders Must Die tour and they played solo shows up along the east coast.
