About this album

Rhythm and Stealth is an album by Leftfield released on 20 September 1999. It was the follow up to 1995’s Leftism. The album reached #1 in the UK album chart. It was nominated for the Mercury Music Prize in 2000 but lost out to Badly Drawn Boy’s The Hour of Bewilderbeast.

Rhythm and Stealth had a notably harsher underlying beat than its predecessor with songs such as “Phat Planet” and “Afrika Shox” being much darker than those on the previous album. The album is best known amongst the British public for the song “Phat Planet” which featured on Guinness’ 1999 advert Surfer, yet the song was never released as a single.
