Review of Rhythm And Stealth - Leftfield by
anotherwiseguy
Advantages: unusual, interesting sounds
Disadvantages: not all astounding 'songs'
I bought this album purely on the strength of 'phat planet' and 'afrika shox', two astoundingly brilliant songs that are still by far my favourites on the album. Initially I have to admit that I found the album a little disappointing. I think this was just because it wasn't anything like what I was expecting. Normally into groups like the Prodigy, I was expecting an album full of tracks in the standard format. Yet what 'Rhythm and Stealth' presents ...

LEFT WHAT???????
Review of Rhythm And Stealth - Leftfield by
mowat
Advantages: it's leftfield
Disadvantages: none
Before reviewing this album, anyone will automatically look towards the first album, Leftism, before listening.
This has mixed blessings.
First, Leftism is a classic. It's slow building poularity, to current multi-platinum status, was due to a mix of basslines, songs and a real progression across the album from chilled to big, bouncy stormers.
So Rythm and Stealth was always going to be compared.
Should it be Leftism part 2? With about 5 ...

Well it could never match leftism could it?
Review of Rhythm And Stealth - Leftfield by
froze
Advantages: some good stuff
Disadvantages: a bit of a mixed bag
this cd was slated by some people for not being as good as leftism but that is a bit unfair, this is not bad at all. it is hard to describe the style, most of the tracks have a hard techno beat and baseline but are much slower than real techno. you will know the start of 'phat planet' from that guinness advert with the waves and the horses and the single 'afrika shox' is an interesting track (feat. afrika bambaataa). but for me the bast tracks are ...

Review of Rhythm And Stealth - Leftfield by
neilskim
Advantages: i have a very loud stereo
Disadvantages: not one to sleep to
this album i'm sure will go down in histroy and be remembered for a long time in one way or another. many may have only heard a few tracks from leftfield without even knowing it. eg the guiness advert with white horses trampling through the waves of the sea 'phat planet', one of the best known songs on the album.
this album is definitely much heavier than their earlier album 'leftism', its a great album to dance to but may not be everyones cup of ...

Excellent follow up
Review of Rhythm And Stealth - Leftfield by
gches
Advantages: As with the 1st, not one bad song
Disadvantages: None
This is Leftfields second album, and with such an amazing debut album (Leftism), they certainly had a lot to follow. Clearly the second was never going to out class the original, as it has become 'the' album to own in the 90's, and it's still the best album of that time.
This one however has a natural follow on from the original, adding more flavour to the original Big Beat styles, and dancey rhythms. From the second you start playing Dusted you ...
