![]() Named as a middle-finger towards the also-rans clogging up the 2010s dance scene, at ten tracks and less than 38 minutes in length, it gets in, smashes the shit out of everything around it and disappears again before you've had a chance to take a breath. Where The Day Is My Enemy suffered from being a little on the bloated side, No Tourists had no such issues: this is the tightest, most concise album of The Prodigy's career. Here are all seven Prodigy albums ranked from worst to best. With The Prodigy set to continue after some time off following the shocking death of Keith Flint in 2019, we thought we'd dissect their excellent discography so far. Their incendiary live shows, led primarily by dancers/vocalists Keith and Maxim Reality, soon become the stuff of legend, putting many 'proper' rock and metal bands to shame as they tore stages apart at the likes of Glastonbury, Phoenix, Reading and, eventually, Download. They were as iconic visually as they were musically, Keith Flint's terrifying form shuddering around a disused London tube station in the Firestarter video producing one of the enduring images of the 90s. Their early albums were era-defining, making history by breaking big both in the UK and the US ( The Fat Of The Land hit number 1 on the Billboard 200 over a decade before dance music truly took over the States), and influencing generations of DJs, bands and artists right across the music spectrum.
