Legendary dance act The Prodigy have annouced a gig at Birmingham's NIA along with special guest Dizzee Rascal.
It will follow on from their sold-out show at Birmingham Carling Academy on December 9.
The Prodigy's fifth studio album, Invaders Must Die, will be released on March 2, 2009. Next year will also see the trio play the NIA on Thursday, April 9.
Tickets are priced £28.50 plus booking and transaction fee and go on sale at 9.30am on Friday, November 7.
Not only have the Prodigy given us some of the greatest hits of the rave era and beyond with Outer Space, Everybody In the Place, Charley Says, Firestarter and Smack My Bitch Up, they also gave a face to rave.
To the rest of us, they donated the whole idea of selling a credible, uncompromising dance music album with the personality and punk panache of a rock artist – and sold 16 million albums in the process.
Now, on Invaders Must Die, Liam Howlett, Keith Flint and Maxim all feature on the album, which is the first time since the release of Fat Of The Land in 1997.
The result is a collision of old skool rave noise with the stratospheric limits of new technology.
