The Natural born player's reaction to the sweeping legislation and crackdown on raves included in 1994's i9000 Criminal Rights Bill is an efficient statement of objective. Pure sonic terrorism, Songs for the Jilted Generation uses the same rave energy that billed their debut, Experience, up the charts in Britain, but yokés it to á trigger additional than substantial drug consumption. Compared to their previous work, the sound is certainly grubbier and less reliant on samples; the impact relocated the Natural born player away from the Américan-influenced rave ánd acid house of the past and toward a distinctively British eyesight of breakbeat techno that has been increasingly allied to the limey creation of drum'in'bass. As on Experience, there are usually so numerous great music right here that first-time listeners would become forgiven for thinking about of a greatest-hits collection instead of a correct studio record. After a short intro, the shattering of panes of cup on 'Break up amp; Enter' catapults the recording ahead with a propulsive flair. Each of thé four singles - 'Vóodoo People,' 'Poison,' 'No Great (Start the Dance),' and 'One Love' - are fantastic, though recording tracks like 'Speedway' and 'Their Law' (with assist from Crop up Will Eat Itself) wear't slip up either. If Experience appeared like an excellent fluke, Songs for the Jilted Era is the project that introduced the Prodigy were on the graphs to stay.
