Woah, it was hard to endure this long ass sequence of minimalistic noises. I'm sorry but that's not even music for me, might be a pretty lame base for some uninspired song at best

Listening to this I felt like I was part of some stressful retro-futuristic adventure. Not very enjoyable.

If Jez from peep show knuckled down I reckon this is the album he would produce. Make of that what you will. It’s alright, maybe a 1.5 but I wouldn't round it up to a 2. Nothing special to me especially since I never even experienced the 90s!

Sounds like video game music for a PlayStation game. Kinda boring to me. One of these electronic albums that were probably interesting at the time but didn’t age well.

Horrible. I’d rather listen to kollaps.

Electronic music is hard for me. So repetitive.

Not my taste, too much aggressiveness and no good music

Man, I am just not there yet.

mehhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

Interesting to see what electronic music started out as but nah

Men neme een drumlijntje, zet er een aantal verschillende baslijntjes overheen, voegt een hoop vaag gejengel en geklingel er aan toe, et voila: je hebt een album! Het zal vast ooit vernieuwend en/of invloedrijk geweest zijn, maar ik vind er echt helemaal niks aan. De eerste 1 ster.

This is weird and I didn’t enjoy it. Hope it was influential for the genre at the time but goddamn I did not get anything from this lol

Nah 1/5

Too much electronic stuff on this list...

The best thing about this album was laughing at it with my husband while we cooked brunch and felt so far removed from the target audience for this “music”.

This is not good. I could stomach "Firestarter," but that's not on this record which you know what that means? We are for sure getting at least one more record from The Prodigy on this list. Hell, maybe we already reviewed that one. Nobody knows. My favorite part was the one "song" that had like a car alarm or police siren just going off in the background for a solid minute plus. Because people just LOVE listening to that when they're high. Lol.

Wow this is just a terrible album. Only two songs of twelve are under 5 minutes and 7 over 6 and a half minutes. All of them too long. My ears were hurting after the first three songs and it never stopped. I don't get how anybody can listen to Techno. I really cannot believe this band has a second album on this list either. Just a really bad album, I will never understand Dimery's affection for electronic based music, there is just way too much of it on the list for the to all be musts.

Bang bang bang boop bip boop bip bang bang bang. Yawn. Rating: 1/5 Playlist track: No Good (Start the Dance) Date listened: 02/09/22

Not my jam.

Not my jam

Not hugely listenable.

That drum and bass and those vocal are annoying as hell.

A pretty gritty electronic album. I found some of the songs not that bad but overall it still get pretty boring like most electronic albums. 2.6/10

So now that raves are done, shouldn’t we be one with such as this? The songs get to a place but no further, though these sound (very) slightly less dated that others in The P’s dreadful oeuvre. At best, this is a soundtrack for a movie I’m glad not to be watching or a video game I don’t want to play.

More EDM. So boring. Why would anybody buy a whole album.

No idea behind this. Simply unnecessary.

WIth no rave drugs on hand, this sounds like music for a bad video game. Or a dodgy party you realize, upon arrival, you should have skipped. Has not aged well so far and unlikely to improve -- sounds like random noise now that audio and synth tech has moved on and the referents are too long in the past. Don't get the critical hype but follow what Christgau said -- "cheap music" -- though maybe a tattoo you wish you'd never gotten is better analogy. We all have a right to be ashamed of our youthful indiscretions; one hopes fans of this act are appropriately so.

Electronic, bad

no me parece!

I'm not really sure why this particular Prodigy album is on the list. They've had more popular albums (with vocals). This one is generic 90's rave music.

trashy techno

Not a fan of prodigy

Boring, listening made me feel completely empty. Lacking anything interesting, and why in the world is this so long? The ideas it has are enough for 20 mimutes.

Nää va? Det här är alldeles för techno för min smak. Väldigt högt tempo utan att något intressant händer i låtarna, det gör mig bara stressad och får mig att känna mig instängd. Det är också väldigt repetetivt vilket också är min generella åsikt om techno, det blir ofta bara samma sak på rundgång i öronen och då lyssnar jag utan undantag hellre på något annat.

I'm sure that in the right setting, that this album would work: just not sure what that setting would be. This was like if Enigma and Mannheim Steamroller were dropped into a garbage disposal.

It's safe to say that I disliked this album and I have nothing else to say about it. 1/5 stars.

hate it cant stand it

Muziek voor als ge aan de bollen zit. één ster weggehaald voor elk nummer dat ik uit irritatie heb overgeslagen. We zijn niet ver geraakt voor we aan 1 zaten.

Feels like Chemical Brothers. Not that interesting to me

Awful, grating, didn't even get past the first song

Balanced as all things should be

Thanks, I hate it.

Uh yeah nope

old weird metal techno album that hasnt aged well

1 song in and I hate this. Can't listen

Acid house pioneer Prodigy. Makes me feel like I'm in a 90s rave
