And the live shows keep getting better. One of the best live acts touring today.
If their abilities as a live act proves anything, it's that the Prodigy are still capable musicians. It's just that they would prefer not to put their talents to use in the recording studio. Don't you think that they have been stuck producing the same old dated beats and sounds in fear of losing their core fanbase and mainstream audiences?

Didn't he once accidentally sneer his face off?
