MUSIC FOR THE JILTED GENERATION - RRP £12.99 - Bargains to be found all over the place

Music For the Jilted Generation was released in July 1994 and was The Prodigy's much anticpated follow-up to the classic debut album "Experience", released orginally in September 1992, including the Rave classics "Charly" and "Everybody In The Place".

Firstly, a little background on my muscial tastes ... They are extremely varied ... from Hardcore Gabba Techno, Drum & Bass, Rave, Funnky House, Garage, and Trance ... to ... Hip Hop, R&B, Soul ... to ... 60's, 70's, 80's...to.... Rock, Indie, Pop ..... to .... Motown, Reggae, Urban ... to ... Classical and Instrumental ... I like some element of it all. Therefore, to try and pick a favourite ever song from this quite eclectic taste can prove difficult, as you would need to narrow it down to one genre and then elect a favourite ... Ben E King - "Stand My Me" ... There I did it!

Anyway, the same could be said for the best live act you have ever seen, but - I must admit - The Prodigy have provided the most raw, charged up live performance I have ever witnessed from a band, and the gig was electric from start to finish. That will never really be recaptured when listening to a studio recorded album, and I suppose the disappointment of witnessing The Prodigy live, is that when I listen to their studio tracks now, they seem to lack something! Some may say that could be said for many bands, but I can truly say that The Prodigy was on a different level entirely ... and that includes The Beastie Boys and Oasis (When I first saw them in 1995 - they weren't a patch when I saw them last year), who are also (or where also) renowned for very high energy performances.

The above said, this is a terrific album, and was - in a sense - the album that defined The Prodigy as a band and really as a new wave of music, or at least, a splinter genre of music, which sought to bridge gaps between 3 main genres, each with their own sub-divisions .. that being Dance, Rock and Indie... "Prodigy Music" as it was often referred to, was born.

Jilted Generation was a very experimental album in many senses, which proved to be a huge success, keeping relatively true to the roots of the bands early success as a breakbeat rave act, with classics such as Full Throttle, No Good [Start The Dance], and One Love, yet breaking new ground with an entirely new audience of grungy indie kids, through colloborations with popular indie band Pop Will Eat Itself, in the production of the fabulous Their Law, to the dark depths of Voodoo People and Poison.

Liam Howlett, the man behind The Prodigy, has brought his own brand and style into music, with the band maturing as a musical animal throughout the 90's and into the new dawn of the Millennium. Each successive album has evolved from it's sibling and added something new, whilst always remaining true to it's orgins.

Jilted Generation is arguably the bands best album (I can't split Experience and Jilted Generation personally), but has to go down in British Musical Culture as the album of a Generation, certainly the most defining and longest impacting. Like Human League before them, The Prodigy can rightly claim a place in music history, with this album influencing the shape and direction of the music industry for years to come.

1. Intro - Liam is busily typing a tune on his type writer, when a telephone rings in the distance .. band member Keith walks in to announce - to Mr Howlett's annoyance - that someone is on the phone for him .... Cue ...

2. Break & Enter - Smashing windows, electonica & breakbeats galore ... a pretty mixed up track with mixed up vocal ... Awesome, intense start to the album ..

3. Their Law feat. Pop will eat itself - A Gem ... the blend of guitar riffs, electronica, keyboard, bass, breakbeat, & beat box just works a treat on this track ... a favoruite amongst the new wave of Prodigy followers and old ravers alike. I love it and it's one of those definite go mental on the dance floor tracks, no matter what style you choose to dance in - headbanging or jogging on the spot !

4. Full Throttle - Definite track for the rave culture and one of my all time favourite Prodigy tracks ... builds and builds and builds until finally unleashing a crescendo of noise (but good noise), exploding into an array of keyboard orginiated tunes speeding like an express train towards it conclusion ....

5. Voodoo People - Another classic and the first single release off the album, post release of Jilted Generation (One Love and No Good where both released preceeding) ... a classic, starting with a slow guitar rif, and building into a mix of beats, breaks, and solo keyboard tunes, before building and blending into one big fusion of sound, along with the classic lyrics "The Voodoo-Hoodoo .. What You Don't Dare Do People!" (Okay, it didn't take long to think them up, particulalry when you compare it to the majesty of Eva Cassidy and Songbird, but for this type of music, this is good stuff!)

6. Speedway - Not one of my favourites ... Samples from the racetrack, or more appropriately the Speedway, with the sound of cars and bikes racing by, with electronic plays on these sounds and themes throughout the track ... Not bad, but just not my favourite.

7. The Heat [The Energy] - A well and truly ... erm ... how do I put this without using choice language ... fecked up track (Rely on the Irish pronunication that's how!). The track is all about raw energy, with all kinds of experimental samples and breakbeats going on. I like it, so won't.

8. Poison - The 2nd post album release, single release, which was hugely popular and has since been remixed and sampled on numerous occasions. "I've got the Poison, I've got the Remedy!". Similar in style to Voodoo People, with a slow build to the central timing of the song, when literally all hell breaks loose ... Guitars, keyboards, breakbeats, vocals ... awesome .. total mayhem.

9. No Good [Start The Dance] - What I would describe as the only typical 'dance' track on the album, appealing to the orginal ravers, but also fans of house music. It is and remains a Prodigy classic, which always sends gig goers into an absolute frenzy when this comes one, particulalry if it is followed up by...

10. One Love - An absolute rave classics ... nailed on Hardcore tune, favourite of DJ Carl Cox at one time, particualrly if taken up a notch or two on the turntable.

The final 3 tracks are collectively known on the album as the Narcotic suite, and are quite simlpy a come down after the madness and delirium of the previous 10 tracks.

11. 3 Kilos - What this evidently refers to is the average weight of party goers after an evening of brain hameoraging dancing to the preceeding tracks ... clearly?!?!?!? A muh more mellow, softer, experimental track, which took a good 20 or so listens to actually grow on me, but grow on me it did.

12. Skylined - Raises the stakes a little higher again, almost looking for a second wind ... very electronic, yet still experimental track.

13. Claustophic Sting - This track has a slightly darker side, and is the only really techno sounding track on the album, mixing techno with breakbeat to great effect to finish the album on a real high.

It's a while since I listened to this album, but reviewing it has given me fresh impetous to do so... Thanks Ciao!

Essex Boys finest hour.
Review of Music For The Jilted Generation - Prodigy (The) by tuppence_boy

Advantages: A peak in dance music.
Disadvantages: Not for those who like smiley faces and glow sticks.

...Anthems and Garage Nation, dance music was fresh, new and vibrant. The beginnings of rave employed the same rebellious nature that punk had done 15 years before. To rebel against your parents, the system, the mundanity of everday life, was to go to a rave and dance . By 1994 however dance music was becoming more and more mainstream, and the authorities, feeling threatened by this mass explosion of youthful expression were clamping down. The 1994 ...
...gatherings of people listening to music that contained "repetitive beats" was outlawed. At a stroke the long summer of love that started in 88 was over. And against this background of domestic upheaval, the first sons of rave, the Prodigy, recorded perhaps dance music's finest hour, Music for the Jilted Generation. The Prodigy's first album, "the Prodigy Experience", can be said to very much a product of its time i.e. the first outpourings of rave. ... Read review

So good (start the dance)
Review of Music For The Jilted Generation - Prodigy (The) by tonguelessghostofsin

Advantages: Best and most groundbreaking dance album ever
Disadvantages: Absolutely none

This was Liam Howlett's career apex. The magical maestro of dancefloor electronica and beats, and his band, dancers Keith Flint and Leeroy Thornhill, along with MC Maxim, announced themselves upon the wider public with their underground hit album 'The Prodigy Experience', which was blamed for single-handedly killing rave. Not a bad way to start! Many critics felt Liam's brand of tongue-in-cheek rave satire would see them sink without trace were it ...
...record-buying public, it wasn't. Howlett embraced and straddled various dance sub-genres within this LP. Elements of house, techno, hip-hop, jungle and trance all rear their heads, with the result being a near-flawless album to dance, bang your head, and get off your head to. 1. 'Intro.' A dark-sounding sample guides us in, with a tongue-in-cheek sample from a movie i don't know the name of; "I'm taking my work back underground, to prevent it ... Read review

A Celebration of Underground Dance Culture
Review of Music For The Jilted Generation - Prodigy (The) by anotherwiseguy

Advantages: astounding emotional range and flexibility
Disadvantages: none, a pure, polished gem

...settled down and had kids. Music nowadays has either gone the commercial route (a la trance, garage, club) or followed the manufactured anti-establishmentism of either teeny-angst metal (think Limp Bizkit) or the 'cult of the dispossessed' that is hip hop (think Eminem). 'Music For a Jilted Generation' marks the final point before this split. It has the fast, furiousness of dance music, a spillover from the Prodigy's rave days, and also the hatred ...
...and recorded, the track order reads like a journey around the insides of a Generation Xer's mind and the album is the epitome of the 'underground' scene that it claims as it's own in the Track 1 introduction. Jilted is far better than either the earlier rave album 'Experience' and the subsequent 'Fat of the Land' which seemed to mark the point at which the Prodigy decided to capitalise on their 'angry' image. Jilted has tribal beats mixed with Roland ... Read review

Disadvantages: None

As always many tracks have samples from films, lyrics or music from other bands, which always seems to be a main ingredient into the track that the prodigy make. The singles released from this album were, ‘Voodoo People’, ‘Poison’, ‘No Good ...

Music for the masses.
Review of Music For The Jilted Generation - Prodigy (The) by leanne1084

Advantages: The 'perfect' electronic dance album.
Disadvantages: Only 13 tracks long...

...well worthy of its mercury music prize nomination (although how it did not win is beyond my comprehension), Music for the jilted generation was the follow up to debut album Experience and not only marked a positive step forward from its predecessor but also cemented a winning formula which Howlett would utilise for his next album, the world conquering The Fat of the Land. 'So, ive decided to take my work back underground, to stop it falling into ...
...welcome angles for the prodigys music before Howlett expresses his frustration at being interrupted by a phonecall on the intro to album defining track Poison, a monster of a track in which Maxim belts out his lyrics with such agression you'd think his life depended on it. Another single, No Good (start the dance) marks the albums most 'club friendly' moment and arguably its most recognisable. This is followed by One Love, the albums first single, ... Read review

Review of Music For The Jilted Generation - Prodigy (The) by  dieselpower

Advantages: A mindblowing album for its time and still sounds very fresh today.
Disadvantages: Playing this album at load volumes may blow your speakers!!!

.... Poison, if you haven't heard this one you don't know The Prodigy as well as you thought. This track sounds incredibly fresh everytime you hear it. Poison will always be a Prodigy classic and will never grow old. Truly legendary. Even if you have never heard this track you will instantly recognize it. No Good (Start the Dance), this is a huge rave track, banging beats that you just have to move to. One Love, on the album it is actually and edited version to fit it on. This track also featured in the flim hackers, it was also the first single from Music for the Jilted Generation and it was an instant hit. Now we move into the final three tracks titled "The Narcotic Suite", I'll let you work out why. These 3 tracks a little more down beat than the rest of the album. 3 Kilos showing a more melodic side to The Prodigy, blended into... Read review

Still sounds brilliant
Review of Music For The Jilted Generation - Prodigy (The) by  Nicko25

Advantages: Still sounds bloody brilliant 12 years on
Disadvantages: Old fogeys might complain about the noise

...I first heard this album when it came out nearly 12 years ago. I was only 14 at the time. It still sounds amazing. When it came out, the tracks sounded way ahead of their time. They still sound fresh, havent dated one bit. I would recommend this to anyone who likes dance music, no sorry I mean LOVES dance music. I bought it 3 years ago for £5.99 in a sale. My only regret is that I didn't buy it much sooner. I never get tired of listening to it. I try not to put it on too loud though in case other people complain. I just tell them "If it's too loud, then you are too old". The best track on the album for me is track number 4 called Full throttle, which has an almost hypnotic beat to it, I think no good start the dance is as brilliant as ever, voodoo people is fab too and poison is one of the best tracks on the album. All of the tracks... Read review

Their Law (The Singles)
Review of Their Law (The Singles 1990-2005) - Prodigy (The) by  kh777

Advantages: Great mix of The Prodigy's greatest hits.
Disadvantages: Shame they didnt put more tracks on it.

...The Prodigy are a British electronica (or big beat) band whose style has been heavily influenced by the Acid House Movement. The Prodigy's varying style can best be described as rave or hardcore techno. The band's permanent members are Liam Howlett (composer/keyboard), Keith Flint (vocalist) and Maxim (vocalist). The Prodigy formed in the early 1990s and in 1991 their demo was released by XL Recordings. They have released five albums, including the demo "What Evil Lurks" in 1991, which was followed by "The Prodigy Experience" in 1992 (reached number 12 in the UK charts), "Music for the Jilted Generation" in 1994 (reached number 1 in the UK charts), "The Fat of the Land" in 1994 (reached number 1 in both the UK and the US charts) and finally "Always Outnumbered, Never Outgunned" in 2004 (reached number 1 in the UK charts).

The band who stand to give the much maligned English county of Essex a 'good' reputation, Prodigy succeed where Ian Dury and Brian Poole And The Tremeloes failed, i.e., achieving worldwide acceptance and success. Their aggressive, original and extraordinarily exciting style of dance music has created a thousand imitators. Although this record has since been overshadowed by the international success of The Fat Of The Land, it is still a vital record for students of 90s techno/dance. Prodigy lead their pack by a mile.

NME (12/24/94, p.22) - Ranked #9 in NME's list of the `Top 50 Albums Of 1994.'
Rolling Stone (4/20/95, p.80) - 3.5 Stars - Very Good - "...A soundtrack for those British rave hordes who dodge Tory truncheons, MUSIC FOR THE JILTED GENERATION thrills initiates with a political buzz Americans might miss. But the Prodigy's hard-core techno generates universal dance fever....Truly trippy..."
Option (7-8/95, pp.129-131) - "...the Prodigy jolts an industrial sensibility with techno drive and then rides the seemingly endless grooves until we're numb...for intensely pumping dance music, this album has more life than most..."
Alternative Press (4/95, p.84) - "...JILTED GENERATION throws much darker shapes than its predecessor. Moreover, it slams harder and rawer and covers more ground--21st century hip hop, Latin funk, horror trance, Vapourspace-like ambient--in addition to their usual crowd-pleasing, hi-NRG tekno. Thumbs up for the use of guitar and flute, too..."
