The Prodigy say new album will "wipe the floor" with dance DJs
The Prodigy's Liam Howlett has no worries about how the band's new album will fare
Earlier this year The Prodigy announced that their forthcoming album would be "violent sounding". Well, now they're spitting even more fire about the new LP.
Speaking after the band had been announced as headliners of the 2015 Isle Of Wight Festival, Liam Howlett clearly expressed he has no worries about how the Prodigy's latest record will fare.
The last album from the dance music behemoths came out in 2009, and Howlett has said work on their sixth studio album is now complete and it will be released in early 2015.
When asked about the current dance music scene, Liam Howlett responded:
"We've always been like a big broom that's just cleaning up - wiping the floor. They don't bother us. It's mainly DJs. If the dance scene is made up of DJs, that don't bother us."
"We're in different zones to them. We don't make music like those kind of acts. We view ourselves as in our own kind of area. We're fans of some people out there, but when you've got a scene built on DJs, that's not healthy. We need more bands that make this kind of music."
Fans of The Prodigy have been patiently waiting for new material, and if what Liam Howlett is saying is anything to go by, it will be worth the wait.
