roblJan 17, 2005first two tracks are good - after that it tails off into confused mediocrity. Christ, the chemical brothers did the oasis/dance crossover ides ages ago. I wonder what all the discarded stuff sounded like - sorry but baby's got a temper was better than most of this!

ScientiztDMay 11, 2005This is the worst Prodigy album ever, i am a hardcore prodigy fan from the first beginning and not commercially minded. This is only a collection of samples glued together like i heard one of the local wizzkids could do better, only spitfire had a bit of edge, the rest is crappy. It just lackes the typical prodigy attitude. It scares me, whats going on?

MacMOct 2, 2004This is nothing short of a woeful Hardknox tribute. Girls is one of the best singles of the year but the rest of this is embarrassingly bad.

FudoMSep 13, 2004Not as bad as the press it's getting. Fans will not be disappointed, and this is aimed at them anyway. There's some real stormers, there's a lot that's new, and it's still better than 99% of the drivel being produced right now. It's not Fat of the Land, but it still satisfies in a way that only Prodigy can.

diablomSep 28, 2004Garbage. Half-baked and half-arsed.

JamesWSep 30, 2004I believe this is one of the greatest Prodigy albums available, second only to Gilted Generation. How anyone can rate this album bad is beyond me. Put your headphones in, turn up the volume and appreciate it for what it is. Don't judge form the comments on this page, look further and you will find it has many great reviews!!

RicoSep 14, 2004This is an outdated mess. It's The Prodigy in name only. The spirit is gone. Ignore this and instead revisit the first 3 albums.

FlorianGSep 20, 2004It's good that they are back! It's the worst album but the Girls single it's fantastic and that's about it...

KazJan 29, 2005I wish people who rated this album were prodigy fans from the start, not a fan of fat of the land. I can put the cd in my car and listen to it from start to end without skipping songs, which you can't do with about 99% of the other crap out there.

franbMar 14, 2005I just fucking like the album, most people seem 50/50, or worse, cant understand it

BenkApr 23, 2005This is a great album, i love it. Some of the songs i had to repeat over and over again constantly like Action Radar. There is 1 diapointment though Medusa's Path, what happened there!?

MoysesNSep 14, 2004Too much "more of the same".

TristanLSep 17, 2004Though not a classic this is eminently a grower and much better than the 40 given. Very good tracks abound, though a few are duff. Some classic hooks ARE present, despite what the critics say

GrahamDNov 26, 2005Definitely takes a few listens but a thoroughly enjoyable album. Give Liam Howlett some credit for this, its not easy creating an album with half a band! The beats are thick and fast and just because its not FOTL doesnt mean it should be dismissed. Its crazy how many crap reviews this has got...

paulFeb 11, 2005Solid tunes, with two exceptions. Pure Prodigy material- could be made by no other. :)

gdubyaMay 15, 2005Though grating and abrasive most of the time, at least one can't say Liam hasn't reinvented the Prodge's sound here on AONO. The "band" can only take a step backwards from perfection; after the first 2 brilliant albums, the better-than-average 3rd, and this puncher, hope still exists that Liam and crew will shine again.

EdRMJun 11, 2005An excellent record, fun and playful. Just becasue it is not as good and groundbreaking as "Fat of The Land" was, it is not bad. Why should Prodigy just make classics? Anyway, the basis of any pop culture is just make more of the same..

May 25, 2012A truly weak record from a group that has an otherwise great catalogue of work. Two or three decent songs can't save an album full of questionable choices (Juliette Lewis on vocals) and melodies that just weren't appealing to me.
-
Aug 22, 2013Not their best. but still goddamn great. It contains good tracks like "Spitfire", "Girls" or "You Will Be Under My Wheels", but not every song here is as great as these I mentioned.

Apr 26, 2019Последний удачный и самобытный альбом в истории группы. Затем эксперименты закончились.
