Product Description
From Amazon.com
Before music journalists were throwing around terms like "drum & bass" or jungle, the Prodigy's Liam Howlett was creating high-energy dance music by marrying sampled, pitch-shifted beats to all manner of electronic timbres. This album has it all: complicated break beats, housey piano riffs, lush analog pads, frenetic and computeresque melodies, and subsonic bass. In fact, the mélange is so dense that the material demands full attention and repeated listenings to gain a complete understanding of the rhythmic interplay. --Michael A. Massa

The diamond of the old skool rave scene. The best Prodigy album in my opinion (although I'm a big fan of fast paced dance music like happy hardcore) with some of their best tracks, and at the same time it is an absolute disaster. Why Liam and the gang decided to leave out the released single versions of Fire and Wind it up used to be a mystery to me, I now know why, to earn more money. Charly is a bit different aswell, though some would argue better on the album, aswell as a couple of others being a little different. The brilliant versions of Fire and Wind it up (rewound) were left out and replaced with terrible remixes in comparrison. You used to have to fork out another £10 just to get the two singles, worth every penny (especially Wind it Up which has "We are the Ruffest", a brilliant tune). The albums great but don't buy it. Go back, type in Eperience expanded and pay the extra couple of quid to get the cd with the b-sides, because on it are 2 of the best Prodigy tracks ever, the proper version of charly with full cat influenced safety messages aswell as We are the Ruffest. Compare the tracks on the 2 cd's and you will c what I mean then appreciate being able to buy this reworked version of Experience, because I had 2 do it the hard way and spend a lot more than you'll have to. The extra money spent is worth it ten fold, trust me.

A slice of music history wrapped in a plain white cover. This album is arguably the best dance album ever made and testament to the writing genius of Liam Howlett. When I first bought 'Experience' I listened to in virtually non-stop for 3 months and still find it interesting today. It's consistent song quality throughout is rarely seen in albums of any genre.

The Prodigy's first album. They might not release albums as often as we wish, but each time they do the music has evolved and owning this album allows you to 'experience' how The Prodigy have changed. This first album features songs that go back to the good old days of rave music, with songs featuring many sound samples including the classics Charly (a must for anyone that can remember the 'Charly says' adverts) and Fire, which leaves its lyrics in you head long after you have stopped listening to the song, which in this case is not a bad thing. All of the songs on the album are original and have their own very distictive sounds, helped by the great use of the sound samples. Don't be put off by the age of the album it still sounds fresh.

The Prodigal Album
This album is fantastic - easily their best. The songs are catchy and their incorporation of the piano in some of them is brilliant. You must buy this.

It's an 'experience'
There are no surprises here. This is a great album by a great band. The Hordes of Jericho has not dated at all and would happily sit alongside the tunes on their latest album. Read more

Prodigy 1st Album
Incredible CD with enough extra unheard tracks to keep even the die-hard fan happy. The quality of sound is now superb due to the remastering.
