What Evil Lurks is an EP by English band The Prodigy. The 12" vinyl record was released in a limited number in February 1991, selling around 7000 copies.
Contents
The four songs were part of the 10-track demo Howlett sent to XL Recordings when he was attempting to obtain a record deal. Before "What Evil Lurks" had released, "Android" got an early release in November 1990 and it was released on the expanded version of Experience. The original version of "Everybody in the Place" is featured on the record and is different from the eventual Fairground Version on the single with the same name.
The EP was re-issued in a limited edition on 27 September 2004, to celebrate the 15th anniversary of XL Recordings.
In the Netherlands "Android" was at that time the floorfiller, so local version had it as an a-side with "Everybody In The Place" while "What Evil Lurks" and "We Gonna Rock" were both b-side.
