Music for the Jilted Generation

While I definitely prefer Fat of the Land, I can't deny that there's a ton of bangers here. I think this one works better as a club album but FotL works better as a home listening experience.

1 star as this list doesn't need two Prodigy albums. Pick one m8.

Yllättävän kämäinen levy megahittiien ympärillä. Tai ei vaan kauheen kiinnostavaa elektronista musiikkia. 3/5

This was great! I can only imagine it being crazy in '94.

This is outrageous, this is contagious

I was a little young for the rave scene, as this came out when I was 14. This album certainly makes me nostalgic for something I never got to participate in.

I wasn't listening to this type of music in 1994, but these days, I'm always looking for a high electronic music without unnecessary lyrics. For that reason, this is a far better album than Fat of the Land for me.

This is definitely going into my personal collection

this goes hard.

I figured I might need to crank this one to fully appreciate it. I turned it down.

I quite enjoy the first few tracks. Then…it keeps going…

2/5

I'm definitely not an electonica guy by any stretch of the imagination. I don't hate this, though. It's just fine.

My initial reaction was shock that there are two Prodigy albums in the 1001. The first few tracks had me even more irritated - here's that same Prodigy beat in every song. I started thinking maybe they're great when you're at a rave stoned out of your mind but listening on a Sunday morning? Not so much. Well, then I found myself listening over the course of much of the day and it grew on me every time I listened. I was listening while working, and before I knew it I was grooving with the whole album. And THIS is why I think it's so essential to give albums on the 1001 more than one or two listens. Who would think this one was a grower? Favorite tracks: Their Law, Voodoo People, Poison (really great groove), The Narcotic Suite: 3 Kilos & Skylined.

Largely boring and overly pleased with itself, but "No Good" is an absolute classic.

I used to listen to music like this almost to a fault. The highlights are pretty high (Voodoo People is a killer jam) but a lot of it gets to long and too repetitive. 3.5/5

I remember when these guys debuted. I thought they were so avant garde. Now the music feels somewhat primitive...still, it is a wild album and I enjoyed almost every single track.

I thought we were done with electronica.

An album full of very repetitive boring songs, that I feel go on for way too long. I felt bored of this album half way through but managed to listen to all of it.

Standout track: Voodoo People

I didn't feel like I really connected to anything until the narcotics trilogy at the end. If just those songs were in an EP format, I would give that EP a 5

No bitches we’re smacked up in the making of this album

Samen met Bad van Michael Jackson is dit album denk ik door mij het meest beluisterd. Liam maakt een kunst van het hergebruik van muziek van anderen. Met het gebruik van een Nirvana riff voor Voodoo People als hoogtepunt. Niet alles heeft zo'n metamorfose. 3 Kilos is wellicht juist weer zo fijn omdat het zo dicht bij het origineel blijft.

Naast deze nummers biedt het album ook nog de klassieker Poison met één van de beste manieren om de beat te droppen. Het is bijna alsof de tijd vertraagt. En het bevat de alleen op vol volume en bij voorkeur live te beluisteren energie-rammer Their Law.

Als we dat op een rijtje zetten, zit er nogal wat verschil tussen de nummers. Their Law en 3 Kilo's zijn zo ongeveer uitersten in het breakbeat-genre. Ook opvallend voor mij. Als ik zo de top 4 eruit licht, zit de andere klassieker No Good daar niet eens bij. Wow, dan is de rest vet.

10 sterren!

Sounds very much of its era. I prefer other electronic acts from that time (e.g. Chemical Brothers, Underworld). This is Ok, but not amazing.
