{"product_id":"prodigy-music-for-the-jilted-generation","title":"Prodigy - Music for the Jilted Generation [2LP]","description":"\u003cp\u003eMusic for the Jilted Generation is The Prodigy turning genuine political anger into one of rave culture's most enduring records, Liam Howlett throwing rock, breakbeat, and techno at a single canvas until the boundaries between them stopped mattering.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eBy 1994, the UK's Criminal Justice Act was actively criminalising the rave scene that had built The Prodigy's whole audience, and this album is partly a direct response to that, a record made explicitly for and about the community the government was trying to legislate out of existence. Howlett widened the sonic palette considerably from the band's earlier straight rave sound, pulling in rock guitar and darker, more aggressive breakbeats, and the result became a genuine blueprint, nearly every electronic act that emerged in the decade after owes something to what happens across these thirteen tracks.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eTheir Law, featuring Pop Will Eat Itself, is the album's angriest and most explicit statement, a direct shot at the legislation the whole record was reacting against. Voodoo People remains the song most people know first, that central riff turning into one of the era's defining rave anthems. Speedway barrels forward with pure breakbeat velocity, and The Heat closes the album's front half on something darker and more atmospheric than the tracks around it.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003ePolitical anger turned into a genuine dancefloor weapon. Thirty years on, it still hits exactly that hard.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Alliance Entertainment","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45297089085745,"sku":"634904011413","price":33.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0704\/2026\/7313\/files\/Prodigy_-_Music_for_the_Jilted_Generation_2LP.jpg?v=1790256244","url":"https:\/\/vinyl.com\/products\/prodigy-music-for-the-jilted-generation","provider":"Vinyl.com","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
