THE Prodigy has announced that they will be embarking on a UK tour as well as the release of their new album ‘The Day is My Enemy’.

They will be coming to the Motorpoint Arena, Cardiff on May 8 following the release of their album on March 30.

The band will be releasing their album via their own label Take Me To The Hospital through Cooking Vinyl.

It’s an album that takes you on a journey through the unchartered underbelly of urban nightlife where anger is an ever-present energy lurking just beneath the surface of an edgy calm.

Uncompromising first single ‘Nasty’ fires out of the cannons like a ferocious statement of intent and finds Keith Flint at his snarling best. Premiering as Zane Lowe’s Hottest Record in the World tonight on BBC Radio 1, it sets the tone perfectly for the new album.

By rights Liam Howlett, Keith Flint and Maxim shouldn’t be angry at all. The Prodigy has always cut a solitary path through the noise-scapes of electronic dance music. They’ve 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.

Tickets for the show are on sale now and are available from www.gigsandtours.com/tour/the-prodigy.
