“Music enriches your mind”
Music whether it is the new age music by Yanni, or something hard mental and meditative music like Enigma or some nice soft pop by these boy bands or some nice techno numbers by the Vengaboyz all are music to ears for some one or the other.
Metallica and Nirvana are kind of heavy metal rock band who know, how to scream from their lungs but its my idea others may find their music to be out of the world and would give them a heavy kick without having booze.
Prodigy’s only album I have ever like is the fat of the land. The first time when I heard the song Firestarter must have thought this group must be crazy and nerdy kind. I was not surprised when I saw the video.
Though, there are some of the good dance numbers but you can hardly dance because as soon as the song starts your head starts rolling and you are in a different galaxy. The enjoyment, which you get when you had a nice 4 pegs of strong vodka or whisky. The music is such that you don’t need alcohol to get high, the fast and hard banging itself makes it roll you out. No doubt when ever I play this, my mom used to show me the door out.
The complete album is fantastic with good mix of instruments but its really hard banging techno and electronic hard rock.
Tracks
- Smack my bitch up
You must have listened to the track in the movie Charlie’s Angel. The song starts slowly…moving up and then becomes really hard, your leg will really start rolling but after watching charlie’s angel with this track my hands and legs starts rolling together to beat some one. Kidding. But it is the surprise package of this album. The voice of the lady is really synchronised with the song, which reminds you of enigma. A stunningly beautiful Indian vocal weaves in and out of Smack My Bitch Up.
- Breathe
This is more of the conventional rock type. This song became very popular with Firestarter when this album released. Though this song takes you to the second level of getting high. The able to sound menacing even as it lurches into acoustic guitar breaks, and back into bass and drum explosions
- Diesel Power
My fav. By the time you finish listening to Breathe, you are already in a mould that your body starts shaking hard and your legs moving to the fast rhythm. Though the track is a bit slow but that’s what makes you feel to listen to more and more.
4. Funky Shit
Most vulgar song of this album and FTV’s all time favourite track.
5. Mindfields
The most downloaded Prodigy song, but I don’t like this song that much because it is just banging the drums like some one is banging the clothes and trying to wash it.
- Narayan
This is a kulashaker vocal mixed with prodigy and one of the good songs in this album. I really like the way English and Western guys pronounce Narayaana!!!
- Firestarter
This is the all time-hit song by prodigy played in all the parties, discs and pubs. Nice hard-hitting number. Firestarter is simply a true classic. It sounds like it was recorded in some frightening otherworld.
People who like hard-hitting, crashing, banging techno-electric rock may find this album and excellent bet. They are in similar lines with Chemical Brothers, this is one my all time favourite album.
GO ahead and enjoy this FAT of Hard Hitting Song!!!
