Things haven’t changed there.Their Law Featuring, Written-By – Pop Will Eat Itself There was a bit of concern about the drug culture, but in a lot of instances, the police were so heavy handed. Rave culture was going on, and people just disapproved. “I don’t remember the 1990s as being a particularly repressive time, but if you were Liam and Keith’s age, perhaps you felt differently. “I’m something of an old hippy, but it seems to me to be the same message you’d heard in the 1960s, people criticising governments for being tyrannical,” he explained. But it’s not at all – it’s just what we wanted on the cover.”Īs for the artist himself, Les Edwards, who had previously prepared artwork for artists as diverse as Metallica, Uriah Heep and Monty Python?Īs he explained in a 2014 interview with Dazed, the message portrayed by the artwork wasn’t of a particular time or place, it was more a timeless study of youth in rebellion. “But people read into it, that it was connected to that protest. But it’s funny, because the inside cover art, that’s just a coincidence. “There was that whole ‘fight the party’ thing at the time,” he explained, “you know, that bill.

Music For The Jilted Generation is full of nods to the rebellious spirit of the time as well, from the spoken word phrase before opener Break & Enter ( “So, I’ve decided to take my work back underground … to stop it falling into the wrong hands”) to the crushing apolitical sentiment of Their Law.Īs for the ‘Jilted Generation’ of the album’s title… well, it’s obvious, innit?īut as The Prodigy’s musical maestro Liam Howlett told Clash in 2014, the artwork chosen for the album was mere coincidence, having been chosen long before the Criminal Justice Bill reared its ugly head. “All of it was exciting: the wait to hear where the party was mass congregations in a service station dropping a pill before joining a convoy of cars tail lights glittering into the distance arriving to lines of parked cars and beats in the distance, stumbling – butterflies in stomach – towards the lights and into dancing mayhem.” “This might sound like the kind of clichéd hyperbole you’d hear in a Happy Mondays documentary, but the joy and unity the clause aimed to destroy was something rare,” the article puts it. Indeed, less than two weeks after the album’s release, some 50,000 ravers marched from Hyde Park to Trafalgar Square to protest the Bill, captured here in this article by Vice. The iconic image, by artist Les Edwards, was seen by many as an artistic nod to the UK’s Criminal Justice Bill of the same year, which famously banned the hosting of events featuring music “characterised by the emission of a succession of repetitive beats”. The Prodigy’s Music for the Jilted Generation was released on 4 July 1994, and while the album itself would go on to make rave history, the album’s artwork, in particular the inner sleeve, would prove to be a major talking point…
