Few albums were as eagerly anticipated as The Fat of the Land, the Prodigy’s long-awaited follow-up to Music for the Jilted Generation. The Fat of the Land was touted as the album that would bring electronica/techno to a wide American audience; and indeed it went on to sell 2.8 million copies in the US. The Fat of the Land delivers exactly what anyone would expect: intense hip-hop-derived rhythms, imaginatively reconstructed samples, and meaningless shouted lyrics from Keith Flint and Maxim. D1 published by EMI Virgin Music Ltd/MCA Music/Perfect Songs/Zomba Music. ℗ 1996 XL Recordings Ltd. The Fat of the Land has received critical acclaim. The album debuted at number one on the U.S. Billboard 200 chart and the UK Albums Chart. The album has since gone double platinum, selling over 2 million copies in the U.S. In 1999, the album entered the Guinness World Records as the fastest-selling UK dance album and was also nominated for a Grammy Award. It follows XL’s release of The Smile’s A Light For Attracting Attention — one of our favourite albums of 2022 so far.A1 contains portions of " Give The Drummer Some" by Ultramagnetic M.C.'s from their album entitled " Critical Beatdown" used courtesy of Next Plateau Records.

My copy has identical matrix runouts but the lables are a little different. On the right side of the lable there is more text like adress, phone and fax number of xl-recordings. Everything else looks identical.

Just great release. The sound is very open, soooo wide, deep and punchy. Great separation of instruments and samples. The Prodigy are reissuing The Fat of the Land in a 25th anniversary edition via XL Recordings this November. C1 " Selling Jesus" by Skunk Anansie used courtesy of One Little Indian except USA courtesy of Sony Music Entertainment Inc. All those guest vocalists mean something, Howlett is at his best when he’s writing for himself or others. “Firestarter” and all of its rewrites capture the fire of the Prodigy at their peak, and the remaining songs have imagination that give the album weight. The Fat of the Land is damn good! Double vinyl reissue from XL Recordings.B2 excerpts from " Root Down" used under license from Capitol Records. A division of Capitol Records Inc.
