Just a week away from the release of the latest LP by electronic music group The Prodigy, 'The Day is my Enemy', the British have once again managed to place another of their works at the top of the UK sales charts, already exceeding 45.000 copies sold. A noteworthy fact is the fact that, with the exception of their first LP 'Experience' (1992), the rest have all managed to reach number 1: 'Music for the Jilted Generation' (1994), 'Fat of the Land '(1997),' Always Outnumbered, Never Outgunned '(2004),' Invaders Must Die '(2009) and' The Day is my Enemy '(2015).
Another point to highlight -although not so positive from the fan's point of view- is the terrible waiting we have had to endure between album and album, especially after the highly successful and controversial 'Fat of the Land' (1997). After having to endure the stick of censorship with the video for the single 'Smack My Bitch Up' and after large supermarket chains threatened to remove the LP from their shelves for all the mess that was organized with the happy video clip, no there were few voices that spoke of a breakup of the group. But it was on their comeback, 'Always Outnumbered, Never Outgunned' (2004), that the British proved to be more alive than ever.
With 'The Day is my Enemy' it happens to us exactly the same. Six years six, like the bulls, which is said soon. The wait was not exactly short, but once you devour the album for the first time you discover that it was worth it. The Prodigy they continue with their samplers, their strident melodies and catchy bases to the maximum, managing once again to offer one of those works that, especially those who can enjoy them live this summer, will not easily forget.
