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 doesn't have quite enough depth or variety to qualify as a flat-out masterpiece, but what it does have to offer is damn good.

Fat is an album of jock jams in JNCOs. Breathe rides a synth line like a surf guitar, with Maxim squealing and groaning lyrics like psychosomatic, addict, insane, over a beat that swings like a Red Hot Chili Pepper’s tube sock. Climbatize has the nerve to further inflate the Who’s Won’t Get Fooled Again adding a thrilling Incredible Bongo Band beat and cinematic atmospherics sourced from Egyptian Empire’s breakbeat classic The Horn Track. It’s like I’m in the biology club and they’re in the football team, you know? With The Fat Of the Land, they packed the stadiums.

The album was released in 1997 on a wave of hype created by the two singles that preceded it; & and &.The Prodigy& first two albums had been more straight-ahead rave records; although even then, Music For The Jilted Generation in particular is a remarkable creative effort. On The Fat Of The Land however, Howlett combined the dancefloor sensibility of someone who had come through the British rave scene, with an instinctive grasp of hip-hop style sample manipulation that was honed during his younger years as a break-dancer and DJ.
