Leftism is the debut studio album by English electronic music duo (now solo project) Leftfield,
originally released in 1995 on Columbia Records. It contained a mixture of new tracks along with
reworked versions of previous Leftfield singles. The album contains guest spots from musicians not
associated with dance music at the time such as John Lydon from Public Image Ltd. (and formerly of
Sex Pistols) and Toni Halliday from Curve. The album was described as progressive house, although
some journalists found that label too limiting, suggesting the album incorporated many genres.
On its release, the album was well received from the British press with positive reviews from the NME
and Q. The album was nominated for the Mercury Prize in. Critics have praised the album as one of
the major album-length works of dance music, with Q referring to it as "the first truly complete album
experience to be created by house musicians and the first quintessentially British one".
