For the last 25 years or so, The Prodigy has cut a solitary path through the noise-scapes of electronic dance music. Liam Howlett, Keef Flint and Maxim have dropped five epoch-defining studio albums, including 2009’s world dominating Invaders Must Die, and delivered unforgettable live performances that have taken electronic beats into unchartered territories. Throughout this time they’ve remained resolutely focused on their own vision, inspiring legions of artists along the way. No one would blame them then if they cashed in on their legend and produced an album of USA-friendly EDM mainstream beats like a well-earned pension plan. Isn’t that what bands are supposed to do by this stage in their careers? Anyone expecting an EDM sell-out for album number six obviously doesn’t understand The Prodigy’s oppositional ideology. The Day Is My Enemy finds the band pushing at the edges of expectation with the unbridled fervour of a bunch of teenage car thieves hot wiring the fastest motor they can find. The Day Is My Enemy is no mainstream-sucking joyride.  It’s The Prodigy turned up to 11, lights tuned low and ram-raiding the back doors of popular culture.
