Review by Ben Waldron

Prisoner by Petrol Heads: A Hardcore Assault on Your Eardrums Alright, let’s cut to the chase. Prisoner by Petrol Heads isn’t just another album; it’s a relentless slap in the face for anyone who thinks electronic music is all chill vibes and coffee shop beats. Released back in 2005 under Dusk Till Dawn (a label that knows its hardcore roots), this sucker hits hard with Happy Hardcore, Breakbeat, and straight-up Hardcore styles. And yeah, if you’re from the UK scene, you already know what I’m talkin’ about. Let’s dive into two tracks that’ll stick in your brain like gum on a hot day: First up, "Prisoner (Cube::Hard Remix)"—this thing rips. It’s got that classic Cube flavor where every beat feels like it’s punching through a wall. The kick drum? Brutal. The synths? Insane. You can tell Cube didn’t hold back here—he went full throttle, throwing layers of distorted madness over an already killer track. This remix doesn’t just grab your attention; it kidnaps it, ties it up, and demands ransom in sweat and adrenaline. If you’ve ever been at a rave when this drops, you know exactly what I mean—it turns the crowd into one giant mosh pit of euphoria. Then there’s the "Prisoner (Original Mix)", which serves as the blueprint for chaos. While the remix goes off the rails, the original lays down the law. It’s raw, unfiltered, and dripping with attitude. Those breakbeats hit harder than a drunk bouncer, while the melody twists around like it’s mocking you. What makes this version unforgettable is how stripped-down yet intense it feels—it’s not trying to impress anyone; it is impressive. Like, I still catch myself humming parts of it randomly, even years later. So why does this album matter? Because it doesn’t mess around. In a world full of polished EDM crap designed to sell TikTok trends, Prisoner reminds us what real energy sounds like. It’s messy, loud, and proud—and honestly, we need more of that. Oh, and here’s the kicker: listening to this album somehow made me miss my bus stop twice last week. Coincidence? Maybe. Or maybe Petrol Heads just programmed their beats to screw with public transport schedules. Either way, respect.
