Music For The Jilted Generation - Prodigy (The) > Reviews

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 ... Read review

Advantages: Will appeal to people who are into different types of music
Disadvantages: None

...into different areas. The prodigy’s music was revolutionary and very original at the time which is something that the prodigy always seem to be able to do and keep on doing. 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 ... Read review

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 the ... Read review

Advantages: Great dance albumn
Disadvantages: None

...albumns I have decided that Music for the Jilted Generation is definately the best one. It starts of well going into hits such as Voodoo people, Poison, No Good and One Love. It then finishes off with the different but quality Narcotic Suite. There are no weak tracks on the albumn with some of my favourites unreleased tracks such as Full Throttle and The Heat (The Energy). The albumn moves on from their debut albumns rave style as the Prodigy develop ... Read review

Advantages: sounds wicked

The album cover looks intigueng and once you open up the case and put the cd in your hi-fi or ... Read review

Advantages: Memories
Disadvantages: 0

...Or to be more precise, Music for the jilted generation and the Experience. (another of their early albums). Yeah, i hear Poison, and think of Frinton-on-sea, the local skating haunt. i hear No Good and visualise the antics at many a house party, drinking woodpecker cider, and generally having a wicked time. So, the fact that the music might be good or bad really isnt my point. its a memory jogger. I love it because my memories are all great, so ... Read review

Advantages: catchy, classic, good to dance to
Disadvantages: can get repetitive

...and everyone who appreciates electronic music MUST own this. Every single song is a classic, and sounds best whether you have it in the background in a car (especially when driving at night, it's almost perfect) or thumping in a club. Awesome! The lyrics (when applicable) are also great, and another good thing about this album is that if you want to take a break from thinking, you can lose yourself in the music and clear your mind, or listen into ...

Advantages: overall quality
Disadvantages: No big hits

Music for the jilted generation, eh. Well I am not a big fan of dace music but the prodigy are great. So I guess that I must be a member of the jilted generation then. The prodigy are one of the most original groups of the '90s. And although very different from the rest of the charts they still managed to become popular. This album is not as good as 'Fat of the land' but not much dance music is, is it? I would only recommend 'Music for the jilted ... Read review
