Product Description
Amazon.co.uk Review
Crawling out of the end of the rave scene, the Prodigy's second album went straight in at number one in the charts. All the tracks have the unique stamp of Liam Howlett and the boys, from the hypnotic atmosphere of aggression and attitude on "Poison" and "Voodoo People" to the guitar-driven "Their Law" (featuring the now defunct Pop Will Eat Itself) and the breakbeat tech-house of "No Good (Start the Dance)". One of the few dance acts to retain underground credibility and huge mainstream popularity, Music For The Jilted Generation shows The Prodigy at their best. Any modern music collection seems barren without its presence. --Ed Potton

When I first listened to Music for the Jilted Generation in 1994 it was unlike any album I had ever heard. 14 years later there is still nothing which comes close to the intensity, aggression and dark cinematic vision which is contained in every second of this record.
This edition has been remastered and and comes with a second CD of exclusive remixes and live tracks. For me the second CD is a bonus the real excitement came from realising the remastering was far from a gimmick. The album has a new polish which takes it to an even higher intensity of listening. Minor details now leap out with incredible clarity and sparkle with the overall sounds capes feeling even richer and more vibrant than before.
Additionally in the 1994 version of the album the intro to the song "The Heat the Energy" was tagged onto the back of the preceding song "speedway". This was an interesting idea but thankfully the track start point has been edited for this edition and the intro is now part of the main song.
This version of the album only compounds my love for it and seals it as the most original and compelling record I have ever heard.

More brilliant than ever after four years. I came late to this album, unaware of its commercial success. It's now more than six years old, and easily outshines any dance album of today in its variety and depth. Unlike Experience and The Fat of the Land, every piece is a soundtrack to a distinct and moving theme. Aggressive and heavy, chill and spaced-out, and funky all at the same time and with catchy yet subtle samples to entertain further. I am frequently hooked on a particular track for the umpteenth time as a rhythm or melody leaps out to present a new angle to listening.
After so much exposure to 'Jilted', I now find virtually all club music dull, simplistic and repetitive. If it was all put together with such style and finesse, the world would be a more inspired and intelligent place.
If you only ever buy one 'dance' album , buy this one. It's probably all you'll ever need.

Music for the Jilted genoration is argueably the greatest of all the Prodigy's albums. Evey tune is of the highest quality and there is so much diversity in this album from full on break beat tunes like "Break and Enter" and "Their Law" to classic rave tunes like "No Good (Start The Dance)" and "One Love" and even elements of hip-hop for who could forget the fantastic song "Poison"? But the best thing about this great album is that it's timeless. Not one of the tunes sounds dated even after 8 years. If you like the music of the Prodigy then this album is essential and if you have no Prodigy albums then I strongly sugest that you make this your first.

It's hard to beieve how old this album is nowadays. If you appreciate revolution, buy it immediately. A journey that needs to be taken.

Best Metal Album of the nineties. Still beats the hell out of most of...
This where the nineties began. Liam Howletts vision of beats and guitars seemed a little contrived. After all, crossover meant Run DMC & Aerosmith didn't it? Could he pull it off? Read more

Very Good!
Brilliant example of pre-Fat Prodigy, some great tunes (Their Law is awesome live too) plus others than werent singles and thus have unjustly gone under the radar. Read more

Acid Dance at it's best.
The first couple of tracks are average but the album soon picks up and it takes you back in the early 90's again rocking to these. Read more

Prodigy 2nd 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.
