10. give me a signal: 2. what the ? How come people like this?.


I personally dig the combination of those cool rock-oriented vocals with the acid beats. It is an unusual combo but it worked for me from the first moment.
The sound design is also cool (and i mean things like the "kbd-cv" mod. of "VCF" that pushes specific harmonics for specific notes into the distortion unit, the "ring modulation" effects ect)... It's not super advanced stuff but it's always fun to listen.
It gives to the track a unique colour and helps with its progression.

Give Me A Signal is much funnier if you pretend it's someone trying to get phone signal -- and their phone keeps defaulting to the EDGE network.

The punk beats are fukin great in Signal, but I don't like the acid in it. It ruins the track. It's still a great track but could be much better.

If you pretend the acid freakout is aforementioned person frantically pressing all the numbers, trying to get a signal, much better this way, yes?

I like the acid sounds except when it is pitched up every few bars.

Are we talking about the second half of the track? Those 303 synths sound horribly cheesy.
But I guess most people on here seem to like that kind of stuff.

Yes, the second half. The first half is perfect. It's a shame not the full track is like the first half. It would be a perfect punk track.

Seems like an appropriate time to list my final Prodigy album ranking.

Note that as I am quite old-skool, the single releases during a particular era heavily influence my ratings. Girls, for example, excited me so much that AONO got in my top 3 :D In my opinion the Girls/Memphis Bells 12" promo release was the last GREAT single.

Without further ado:

1) Music For The Jilted Generation
2) The Fat Of The Land
3) Always Outnumbered, Never Outgunned
4) Invaders Must Die
5) Experience
6) The Day Is My Enemy
7) No Tourists

Finally had my album order delivered today 11 days after the release date. They might not be getting a positive review on Ebay from me.
