from http://members.aol.com/blissout/sr1.htm: Both mashing up hip hop and techno and turning it into something like punk rock. 'Firestarter' has got to be the most radical UK number one hit this decade--reminds me of the Young Gods! And is that a sample of T.Rex's "Solid Gold Easy Action" in there? ------ do i really need to say anything? Most radical uk number one in ten years? what? the best thing to come out of the uk in ten years is firestarter? My god. Prodigy punk? evidently he has never listened to the dead kennedys or black flag or even the sex pistols. Hell the closest thing to punk rock in the electronic genre is ATR. Even, if this guy has good arguments later on he completely discredits himself by saying this kinda garbage. did this guy get a free promo of firestarter or something? perhaps he had to pay for dead cities and because of that hated it. This guy is not about music. And that crap about laswell not being a great artist.... geesh cohesive my ass...
