‘Break & Enter’ opens on the sound of smashing glass, then lets loose an eight-minute run of hardcore breakbeats. ‘Their Law’ crunches in on a heavy, distorted guitar riff. ‘Voodoo People’ races on a wiry, live-played guitar line and frantic breaks. ‘Poison’ drops the tempo into a slow, menacing stomp, the drums landing like hammer blows. ‘No Good (Start the Dance)’ loops a pitched-up vocal over a relentless rave pulse. The Narcotic Suite takes the comedown, from the funk-sampled groove of ‘3 Kilos’ to the eerie, film-dialogue-haunted ‘Claustrophobic Sting’.

About the album.

Music for the Jilted Generation is the second studio album by The Prodigy, a harder, darker blast of rave and breakbeat techno released on XL Recordings in July 1994. Liam Howlett produced most of it at his Earthbound studio in Essex, with Neil McLellan co-producing five tracks at London’s Strongroom, and Maxim the only other band member contributing.

It arrived as the UK’s Criminal Justice Bill moved to clamp down on raves, and the record became a response to that crackdown and to rave culture going mainstream, though Howlett later insisted it was never meant to be political. ‘Their Law’, recorded with Pop Will Eat Itself, takes direct aim, and the inner artwork famously pits ravers against the police. Howlett also pushed the sound into heavier territory, bringing in rock guitars and darker samples.

The album went straight to number one in the UK, was nominated for the Mercury Music Prize, and was later ranked by Spin among the best albums of the 1990s. Singles included ‘One Love’, ‘No Good (Start the Dance)’, ‘Voodoo People’ and ‘Poison’. This edition spreads its thirteen tracks across two black vinyl LPs.

If Music for the Jilted Generation is your thing, the next step is The Fat of the Land, where The Prodigy went global.
