The name “Prodigy” has become almost synonymous with impressive electronica. In fact, this band has taken their popularity further than the standard “cult followings” of other electronic acts. Their high-energy songs, made up of driving synthetic beats and strangely forceful melodies, bring huge crowds into the club scene. After selling out arenas, The Prodigy was solidified in the industry as the most credible electronic group in the mainstream.
This group’s new album, Invaders Must Die, just came out this week, and it is already gaining critical acclaim. The band describes it as their “most complete” project to date, and they have plenty of reason to brag. The album’s current single, “Omen”, is nothing short of what a single should be: a well-rounded song with memorable hooks and danceable rhythms. “Run with the Wolves” is the most intense song, with a harsh, driving beat and some almost sinister qualities. The punch from this song is provided by drum samples that were recorded by Dave Grohl who is the lead singer/guitarist for Foo Fighters and formerly the drummer for Nirvana. The tour favorite (as well as the most downloaded song), “World’s on Fire”, gives the album it’s needed “thump” and repetitive vocal samples, encompassing all the elements of a great CD.
There are plenty of great Electronic artists on OurStage that you’ll definitely want to take a look at after enjoying Invaders Must Die. Made up almost exclusively of songs from our Electronic genre, this playlist even includes a couple of previous Grand Prize winners. Clearly, the electronic genre is making its mark on all listeners in the industry.

We have new media launching with our new website on the 20th of april!
“On April 20th, 2009, a new electro-rock band from Minneapolis, “modernsextrash”, will be launching their new website: modernsextrash.com -but this is not your standard band website. The band created their own “neo-label,” Panacea3 to rid the ails of the dead music industry and this website will be the flagship demonstration of the new music industry model every band will soon be scrambling to imitate.
The website’s “Access” portal (granting their fans free entry to shows and personal interaction with the band) will be launching along with 4 new songs available for free download, as well as a their new music video, “chYna.” The lead singer, Andrew Linde has advice for fellow musicians: “Log online, visit our site and take notes.”
Outstanding writing. Hope to visit soon.
