 Classic. June 26, 2001

This is a new Prodigy release but it is by NO means new material. The nerve of some people to write such lengthy evaluations of something they are obviously clueless about. Anyway, this is a re-release of Prodigy's first album, which is actually my favorite. It's an excellent representation of British 'ardkore rave in the early nineties, in particular the chart-topping crossover stuff that still managed to live up to the 'hardcore' tag. It's a classic sound, far superior to all the overhyped trance/progressive drivel that's currently in vogue, and also represents the Prodigy at their most hedonistic and euphoric. This was what they were best at, and Experience is one of the *only* full-length collections, not to mention artist albums, of this stuff that's totally worth listening to. All good reasons to purchase this album, but for existing Prodigy fans, the real treat is the second cd of b-sides and remixes, almost all of which have only been available on full-priced import singles. Also, the whole album's been remastered. Go for it. Knowing Liam, the new album won't be out for a good while.

I was late getting onto The Prodigy. While I got hooked onto their later work, I went back and grabbed their older works, starting with Music for the Jilted Generation, and now The Prodigy Experience. I'd have to say they've actually gotten worse over time. This is one of my favorite albums ever, of any genre. There's just too much to like - great beats, high energy, and bonus content thanks to the Expanded version. I wish Prodigy made music today like they did back then.
Wow. I'm amazed November 3, 2003

I've had "Fat of the Land" since about 1998 and always thought it was a good album but it never held my attention that much. Just on a whim the other day I saw this CD, and thought it might be a good purchase. I was so right. The album is absolutely incredible - so different to Fat of the Land it's untrue. It's so much more drum'n'bass/breakbeat oriented - the band sounded so much different in the early 90's to the way they did later on. I've not heard Music for the Jilted Generation, but I can assure it's going to be on the list for trial now I've heard this. If you like your D'n'B and you don't get this album, you want your head testing.

It amazes me how many people are so out of the loop, thinking that this is a "new release" and comparing it to "Fat of the Land" (Prodigy's lamest effort). The Prodigy Experience is one of the greatest and most forward looking albums in the genre, considering that its songs were released in 1991 (making this release, boys and girls, a remastered "re-release"). It is a true classic and a must have for anyone into banging beats who love to get down and dance! If you've been a Prodigy fan for a while, you'll definitely apprecite the 2nd CD which includes some fine remixes!
Very entertaining and creative rave music - it's not like "Fat Of The Land" but that won't matter! January 22, 2006

I'll admit that I got "Experience" expecting something along the lines of "The Fat Of The Land", and although it's completely different it's still very good. This is the kind of album that will grow on you - I didn't like it at all at first (because I was expecting another "Firestarter" or "Breathe"), but after a while you it grows on you. You start to appreciate the complexity and energy of the music, and it definitely has much of both. It's a rave album first and foremost, but they add so many other interesting elements to the mix that make the songs worthy of both analyzation and of your club or party mix. Rave music that's both fun and creative is indeed a rarity. Every song here is great, but none of them are necessarily memorable or strike you as instantly great like most of the songs on "The Fat Of The Land", but patient listeners won't mind. As is usual with these kinds of albums the electronic blips and bleeps defy description and thus one must simply hear it to get the picture. Overall I think it's a fascinating album that most won't like at first, but if they give it time then it will probably become one of their favorites! Absolutely recommended!
Highlights include:
the entire album!
