back again . been workin our arses off in the studio having fun . we have a gig in romania next sat. we have bought our friend in the rev to play gitar 4 us while rob is doin manson .there has beeen a number of speculations on who we will be collaborating with on the new record, although we may may use rev to play some parts we aint got any plans to work with TOL. we have got another couple of trax bubbling around with some other vocalists but until they are done they wont be confirmed. coming together.we r thinking the album is march.people may hear small things bleed into the set later this summer.MR H

22/10/2005

we r still buzzin about the radio 1 sessions. all the bands that do it record the day before in the radio 1 maida vail studio.its the room where john peel used to do his live band sessions from. u get time to reherse then 2 takes of each tune,then mix the whole 5 songs that day. it usually takes me 2 days to mix 1 song.what fun we had
17/09/2005
i 4 got to say what the radio 1 sessions is all about. the idea is u go in and record live 5 trax and mix them all in 12 hours.we also did hotride which they will air later when the album is released.
17/09/2005
yo peoples, we had a fukin laugh doin the radio 1 thing. we were locked in thier basement for 12 hours sweating . ableton and the analogue keyboards ,gitars and drums were in full effect. thanks to shahin who did a magical job live 4 us and to nathan the flute player– u r a player son! hope u enjoyed it like we did. we will post up some pictures of that day soon.
23/08/2005
who the fuck is this prick mallorca–never erd of him.obviously didnt leave any impression with me and i certainly wouldnt party with any dude that calls himself that! he wouldnt last 5 mins in a room with me and flinty. sounds like some balleric nonsence.
23/08/2005
let me explain to the dicks out there who r apparently confused about what i do live. i got two apple mac laptops running ableton bak to bak. with ableton u can trigger audio in any way at any time.the carcuss of the tunes run from the laptops with maybe some of the keyboard parts -samples missing that i play live.most guitars r taken off and rob plays them.ableton is basically about triggering parts of the songs and thats why the set is different everytime. there is no bakup but the chance of both computers goin down is slim.whoever that tit was who said it was a cd with shouting over is a prick and i find that insulting. bye bye
28/07/2005
there seems to be alot of moaning people out there .alot of the same people seem to whinge all the time.im talking about the best of selection. this is the way i want it.the final list of tunes arnt chosen by the fans. i hoped originally i would put on more newer traks but when it came down to it this record is more about the past .the next prodigy album is what im interested in now this is finished .tunes like ded ken beats r too good just to appear on a bonus disc and they will develop into future rockers for the next album .what i wil say though is traks like we eat rhythm, demo trigger and other relics will become available in the near future through a new website we are constructing–
21/06/2005
will everybody just chil the fuk out with this no souvenirs shit! the trak may mutate into something else but it wont come out as a demo or any other form until me and rob say so.(never say never).this is the feeling we had when we finished it.it wasnt right yet. we speak about doin stuff again so it may get mutated into something new.

hey peoples–.NITEBREED hav just done a badass mix of spitfire.if u heard that pack of wolves track they did last year it will give u an idea of the sound– drum and bass punk rock .its of the wall. so 3 versions will be on the release. mine, ffs and this bomb.
07/02/2005
we r gathering our ideas on what we r gonna call our best of-retrospect album. post any ideas on the site or neko site and if it gets used the winner gets a ‘wonderfull prize’ which i dont know what it is yet.thought it may be fun to hear some of ur thoughts. peace.
04/02/2005
we r deciding how we r to release spitfire single. it may b a download first with 12″. and then 2-3 weeks after that fans will be able to get the a cd with an extra trak possibly. we r not concerned about makin this record chart eligable .to me it is always important to have something u can actually hold–fuk the internet! fly spitfires LH
16/01/2005
we hav finished the spitfire video now and its 1 of my favourite videos. it totally captures what happens on stage.it was filmed at the last 2 gigs in dublin in december.the director is the same dude that did muse’s butterflys and huricanes. it is mad
15/01/2005
i hav just seen a ruff cut of the spitfire video and i can tell u it is nothing short of full on! it is in my top 4 videos we have done.it is basically a live video ,well us on stage, well kind of. it is fukin mad. it is very dark and FAST ,it doesnt look like anything else out there im telling u — keep tuned in 4 more LH
02/01/2005
happy new year to everybody–ive only just woke up from new years eve party.heavy. back in studio 2morrw with new head.lets go
17/12/2004
spitfire is nxt single,iit will be the faster version we play live.it will be edited coz it feels better shorter.i have new traks like wake up full vocal version ,warning and ded ken but they r all potential singles after spitfire so they wont be on b-side. way it is remixes and spitfire mixes will b! im feelin wake up full rap –kool keith /maxim yeah out
16/12/2004
thanks people for makin this tour soo good.we totally vibed all the way. my personal fav gigs were brixton glasgow and last nite dublin.it was the best we have played since 98 in my opinion ,it felt fukinn REAL! spitfire is the next single we are doin the video today— its out in feb we r also gonna be goin to australia in march i think ,they are the next shows peace L
05/12/2004
yeah yeah,had a great time at brixton both nights ,i couldnt tell u which night was better–both rocked the spot. we played firestarter remix in birmingham but it wasnt right so i did some emergency reprogramming 4 brixton and it rocked.its a hard trak to make any better in my mind so i changed some of the chord structures in the chorus. it really felt like the best we’ve been as a band on stage since 5 years ago.highlights 4 me were—-> fukin all of it! c u in manc LH
28/11/2004
at the moment supports for uk tour will be — youth of britain vatican dc clor ——— on various dates.
28/11/2004
we just got bak from japan,2 amazing gigs –tokyo 16000 osaka 6000. darren emerson ,too many djs and lcd sound system played aswell. thanks to all the japaneese fans who made it something to remember.we jamed anaother new song gettin things ready for england–lets go! firestarter remix will be played first time birmingham.its firestarter but its twisted up more and kiks harder! the next single hasnt been decided yet but people will be told fom this site when ive made up my mind.we will ALL be in the video. some of u might have seen a hotride video ‘floating around’ on the net.this video was rejected coz i thought the song deserved a more intelligent video and not one that was shocking 4 the sake of it.we allready made the best ever video like that with smbu .nothin wrong with violence as long as there is a point. actually it didnt do anything 4 the song so i would rather not have a video at all. see up in birmingham Mr L
09/11/2004
yo peoples, we had a fukin good time doin the spanish dates .thanks to everybody who supported us ,it rocked 4 sure.we tryed out new tunes and different versions of a couple of songs –more as the gigs go on!! 4 all u teckheads im now running ableton live on stage and its an amazing program,v easy to fuck with stuff as u go along. looking 4ward to next gigs -switzerland ,shame its too early 2 bring the board. peace L 2 the H
07/10/2004
i would like to set the record straight about this ‘beastie boys nonsense’ it seems that some journalists are enjoying sensationalising some things i am supposed to have said.i have no wish to carry on any dissagreements i may have had about the smbu issue from reading.people know my stance and it is still the same as it was then. i recently was asked about their new album in an american interview and as with most of my interviews they are in my usual humour.i said that i had respect for their rhymes but i thought they needed me to make their beats doper as i didnt think they were as dope as they should be!! really i dont give a shit- so there u go. long live smbu! LH

Just come back from our first two shows. Respect to everyone who came to Athens and Istanbul. The new set flowed really well and the new track “Warning” dropped! Hope you guys liked it. Keith was on fire. Did anyone get pushed into the pool after the show in Istanbul? Looking forward to seeing more of you at our future shows. Peace Maxim
24/09/2004

05/09/2004

04/09/2004
