prodigy readying album

The Prodigy, touted as the top-selling band of the e-music era, is readying a new album for release in March. Invaders Must Die features contributions from Nirvana/Foo Fighters/Queens of the Stone Age drummer Dave Grohl as well as from Does It Offend You, Yeah? vocalist James Rushent. "The songs are raw and really in-your-face," Prodigy MC Maxim tells a New Zealand publication.

(Geezerly Danceblogga name-drop of the day: I hung out with the Prodigy back stage at a show in Philadelphia in 1992 as they prepped with a spliff. I believe the event was at the Trocadero, with Josh Wink, as was the norm for most such events of the time, opening).
