PRODIGY SPLIT? Exclusive: Band over and record shelved, apparently... 07.nov.01
The Prodigy have split, PlayLouder is all sniffly and teary eyed to report.
The split occurred when the band returned from their recent Scandinavian tour. Subsequent dates were shelved after in-band bickering led to Liam Howlett kicking out Keith and Maxim, according to a source close to the band.
"Basically, the Prodigy are no more," said our source. "It all kicked off during the tour. By the end of it they just weren't speaking to each other and when they got home Liam booted the other two out of the band."
Apparently relations between the remaining members (Dancer Leeroy quit back in April 2000) have been strained for a while. Keith and Liam have had "huge arguments" about Keith's solo material, which he wanted to include on the new album. Liam was having none of it, we're told, as it is "very rubbish".
PlayLouder can also reveal that the follow up to 97's 'The Fat Of The Land' is in the can, but is likely to remain there.
"The album's finished, and has been for a while," said our source. "Liam is just refusing to release it. Which is obviously not going down very well with the record company."
A spokesperson for the band's label XL Recordings could neither confirm or deny the split, but did say that the band have a tour booked for early next year which they are contractually bound to go ahead with, whatever has, or might happen.

That's not news to me, i thought they'd broken up ages ago sometimes around the first time i heard the dirtchamber sessions or whatever it's called. I loved the prodigy but i'm not exactly going to be crying myself to sleep tonight.
