    Great album, I slightly prefer invaders must die over it but i’d put it on par with music for the jilted generation for different reasons though (like both complement each other I’d say)

    I still listen to this at least weekly, the album is in my regular gym rotation because

    A) it’s hard for me to listen to lyric heavy music and count reps correctly (brain no work good during ugga dugga) and

    B) It’s amazing.

    Great music and a innovative piece of history that set us on the course to crab rave.

    I think a lot of people don’t realise just how much this utterly shifted the British music scene

    Ok there was electronic music before it and after it, but this was Sex Pistols level of ground-breaking at the time

      It was the first prodigy album I heard as a kid and it changed my perception of electronic music

    It makes me nostalgic because it was one of the first CDs I owned.

    The first was Jock Jams Volume 2, if you were wondering

      This might have been my first CD that was bought just for me. 311 would have been another one. I’m very nostalgic because I loved it as a young teenager. It still holds up, too.

      Ha! Very funny that you mention Jock Jams Volume 2.

      When my wife was in labor with our first daughter, and it came time to push, the album she wanted to listen to was Jock Jams Volume 1.

      We just had our second daughter yesterday, we are still in the Maternity ward. Guess what album we listened to during the pushing part of labor? That’s right…

      Jock Jams Volume 2.

      If you continued to follow that trajectory you probably have the best album ever made by now.

    Certified iridium banger for a reason, without question. My favorite track, voodoo people (pendulum mix) isn’t on this, but I still sing the chant from Narayan. Just as influential as most of the early works of Fatboy Slim, the Chemical Brothers, the Bassbin Twins, the Crystal Method, Fluke, and so many others. The remix album of this is still just as devastating.

    Once you heard pretty much any one of these tracks, you knew this was, and probably always would be, the sound for you.
