4.5 superb

The Prodigy Invaders Must Die
After the underwhelming album of 2004, the Prodigy return to their roots with Invaders must die. Or so they say. Still, the album is reasonably accomplished, with most highs but one very low.

Invaders must die: 8/10
A good start, a thumping beat and guitar work perfectly, while the robotized lyrics and the very high pichted synths round off to make one hell of a song.

Omen: 9/10
An excellent song, desrved to be at the top of the charts for a while. Guitar, synthy space sounds and a creepy gl;ockenspiel make an excellent package, but Maxim's vocals, coupled with flint's, add the magical touch.

Thunder: 9/10
Returning to the old days starts with this song, a half way station between 'poison' and 'outta space'. The Jamaican vocals coupled with light but aggresive guitar add a nice effect, while the bits between the chorus have a very cathcy beat and hip hop vocals. One problem is that this song only has 4 lines of lyrics, repeated over and over again, so can get quite tiring.

Colours: 8/10
No problemwith the song itself, but it doesnt seem to be sure as to if it's a rock song or a hark back to 'Experience'. Th vocals and guitar sound ok at the beggining, but nothing special. The real magic comes in with the synth, adds a mood to the song.

Take me to the Hospital: 7.5/10
A good song, with all the punk vocals and bells, but there is the real sense of the Prodigy in the olden days with this song's chorus. However, it seems totally unrelated to the song, sounds quite annoying and therefore feels a little forced.

Warriors Dance: 8.5/10
A straight rave song, starting with an exotic sound, backed with light guitar and then a punchy female vocalist adds a goo touch. It then moves onto a slightly underwhelming beat, but then plays an unusual sound, followed by the looping vocals.

Run With the wolves: 3/10
An accuired taste- a punk song? Despite some help with the catchy drums and guitar riff, the vocals do nothing to help the song. The final nail in the coffin for this song is the fact L.Howlett seems to be twisting and turning every knob on his synth and recording it as if its a refined piece of music.

Omen Reprise: 8/10
A very short song, but good while it lasts. A more mellow mood than Omen itself, but the sampled vocals from the original song make it a whole new song altogether. Shame its so short.

Worlds on Fire: 7/10
The first part of this song is very exciting- the slightly dated but catchy chanting, the shouting lyrics, the robotized vocal and the guitar make it a good package. It falls down at the chorus, where it sounds far too similar to 'colours'.

Pirhana: 6.5/10
Doesnt seem to be a very serious song, but fun to listen to altogether in a rebellios fashion. Some exotic sounds give it some refinement.

Stand Up: 9/10
Easily one of the best songs on the album, with a wonderful jazzy element to it. followed by high pitched synths and an exciting middle eight.

3.0 good
