The Prodigy

Electronic Punks The Prodigy

Classic reissue of the very first biography of the world's biggest hard dance/rock act. With a new introduction by Liam Howlett putting this classic early phase in the context of their historically important career, this book is a must-buy for the millions of Prodigy fans eager to learn about the band s formative days. THE PRODIGY have sold 25 million records and single-handedly reinvented the crossover between dance and rock music, with legendary songs such as Firestarter, Omen and Breathe. However, long before they became a stadium-filling rock monster, The Prodigy were prowling the underground of the UK rave scene, first as a blistering demo of tunes by the prodigious teenage Liam Howlett, then latterly with their breakthrough masterpiece, Music For The Jilted Generation. Martin Roach was present throughout the band's early years and documented their rise from the underground into the bright lights of music superstardom. Containing hours and hours of exclusive interviews, the book chronicles the band's early years in minute detail, speaking to each band member and all the key players along the way.
