Amazon.co.uk Review
Invaders Must Die finds the Prodigy line-up of Liam Howlett, Keith Flint, and Maxim Reality back together on record for the first time since 2002’s ill-fated, subsequently disowned “Baby’s Got A Temper”. This doesn’t mark a return to the bad old days of punk-rave cabaret, though. No, in fact, Invaders Must Die finds The Prodigy delving even further back into their history, an attempt to recapture the heady rave vibes, one-finger keyboard riffs, and concussive breakbeats of 1992’s Experience and its epochal follow-up, 1994’s Music For A Jilted Generation. True, sometimes it feels a little too transparent in its eagerness to recapture past glories: “Thunder”, with its loping reggae vocal, is undeniably Howlett on form, but it apes the formula of 1992’s “Out Of Space” a little too closely for comfort. Still, the likes of “Omen” and “Take Me To The Hospital” are agreeably back-to-basics cuts that merge nagging melodies and fairground waltzer queasiness with a weighty production job that renders them muscular enough to compete on a level playing field with Justice, Pendulum, et al. “Run With The Wolves” is the one track that harks strongly back to Fat Of The Land, a gnarled, rocky number with Dave Grohl on live drums that finds Keith Flint claiming to be “hung like a hound”. The closing “Stand Up” is a late surprise, meanwhile, a euphoric set-closer with hints of Screamadelica-era Primal Scream. --Louis Pattison

 SUPERB!, 2009-12-07
I don't often write reviews here but am so excited by this, I had to throw my two pennies worth in. OH MY GOD! Best since "The Fat of the Land". There is simply not a duff track on it. Hard to single out particular tracks to praise, as the CD is much greater than the sum of it's parts. So I'd advise listening to the whole album in it's entirety and without interruption until you make your verdict. It's not background music and has to be cranked up LOUD. I'm listening to it on repeat through headphones to spare my neighbours... It's hard to express in words the sheer excitement and exhilaration that this album elicits. Suffice it to say it demands your full attention and pays you back in bucketloads. If you've liked any Prodigy, buy this, you won't be dissappointed. And if you get the chance to see them live - GO! The best band live bar none. Well done boys, money well spent!
Great album, 2009-11-18
Great album for all fans of the Prodigy's electronic music. DVD shows video clip and videos taken from concerts. A little bit deceived by carton box (I had preferd a plastic one)
fantastic T Shirt, 2009-11-23
Great T Shirt
Great Service

 Good, but not Fat or Jilted, 2010-02-08
Right, let's settle this once and for all. You cannot give this album 5 stars, nor can you give it only 1, and here's why.
Anyone who has listened to or owns Music For The Jilted Generation (or The Fat Of The Land for that matter) will have quickly surmised that The Prodigy's latest offering is neither as musically accomplished as these two albums, nor offers the same levels of diversity and experimentation across its tracks. It lacks the maturity of these records and seems more like a playful successor to their very enjoyable debut.
At the same time, to give it 1 star is just being churlish. It would have to have no redeeming features whatsoever to earn such a score, and two or three of this album's tracks are pretty damn good. `Classic Prodigy' is no bad thing, albeit in moderation.
So what to give this slightly underwhelming effort? Were we all just expecting too much, desperately wanting to be transported back to those golden years? I believe 3 stars is fair, reflecting the quality of some of the tracks and solid production, whilst not reaching the frantic heights of those great 90s crowd-pleasers and `banned' videos.
I don't do reviews on Amazon, or anywhere else, life is too short....., 2009-12-27
.....other people who have too much time on their hands do reviews on amazon, and I read them, and then think "ooh, this is just the preserve of a few nerds who do reviews on amazon, probably mates of the artist, let me check a few other independent reviews - and then if everything checks out and I've heard a few tracks on "Last FM" and like 'em then I'll go out on a limb and buy it. I buy a lot of music, but you've got to be selective, there's so much cack out there, and the last album from the prodigy missed the mark by a mile for me.
So this is the first time I've been tempted to leave a review on Amazon, that's how impressed I am with this album. I've just driven down from the Midlands to Kent on the day after Christmas day with it on full blast all the way. It's aggressive music, so I wound my evo turbo up and drove in the Essex style that the Prodigy demand. Only reason I haven't heard this album before is because I was waiting for my sis to buy it for me, didn't happen on my birthday so had to wait until Chrimbo.
I can't even leave anything too constructive or analytical or well worded because I'm not a seasoned record reviewer. Think back to the golden 90's days of Experience. Now remember how confused you were when Jilted Generation came out because it was such a rocked up departure from what we were all expecting. Then after a few listens it all made sense. Then the "progidy" (sic) went even further down the same route with Fat of the land. It all made sense in terms of progression and those albums were great, however I remember wishing they'd made another album in the same vein as Experience. That wretched "outnumbered, outgunned" effort was a mess.
They've made that Experience/Jilted transition album now. They sample a lot as they always did (the Breeders are in there) but this really is a return to Liam Howlett's glory days. Buy buy buy buy buy buy buy buy buy buy buy.
