https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=m35UfKfDTTw The compilation album Their Law: The Singles 1990-1995 featured the groups most successful work along with a little known gem located on its second disc, the scrapped remnants of Flint's side-project, the confrontational 'Razor'. Composer and Prodigy linchpin Liam Howlett used his wizardry to 'prodigize' it, making the track seem like it could have been an original piece by the group with steampunk infused drumming and electrifying guitar struts. 'Razor' feels like more of a straightforward and conventional composition compared to some of the groups other work with clear distinction and flow between verse and chorus but the song also benefits from this more focused ethos. Most certainly an overlooked song in the groups bag of goodies, 'Razor' zeroes in like a homing missile, hitting the mark with incredible precision.
