When Liam Howlett came to the cutting room for the final phase in the album production, he realised that all the tracks he had originally planned for wouldn't fit onto a CD, so "One Love" had to be edited which resulted in a cut of approximately 3 minutes and 53 seconds, "The Heat (The Energy)" was slightly cut, and the track called "We Eat Rhythm" was left out. ![]() "Full Throttle" contains a reverse sample from the original Star Wars movie, "Skylined" uses a sample of a sound effect from the 2nd episode of the first season of " The X-Files" and "The Heat (The Energy)" features a sample from Poltergeist III. Many of the samples featured on the album are sound clips from, or inspired by, movies. Many years later, after the controversy died down, Liam Howlett derided the title of the album, which he referred to as "stupid", and maintained that the album was never meant to be political in the first place. This is exemplified in the song "Their Law" with the spoken word intro and the predominant lyric, the "Fuck 'em and their law" sample. ![]() The album is largely a response to the corruption of the rave scene in Britain by its mainstream status as well as Great Britain's Criminal Justice and Public Order Act 1994, which criminalised raves and parts of rave culture. Music for the Jilted Generation uses elements of rave, breakbeat techno, techno, and hardcore techno. Just as on the group's debut album Experience (1992), Maxim Reality was the only member of the band's lineup-besides Liam Howlett-to contribute to the album.Ī remastered and expanded edition of the album titled More Music for the Jilted Generation was released in 2008. ![]() It was first released in July 1994 by XL Recordings in the United Kingdom and by Mute Records in the United States. Music for the Jilted Generation is the second studio album by English electronic music group the Prodigy.
