I became a lifelong Underworld fan because of this soundtrack, but more for Dark Train, the song that plays when Renton is detoxing and sees the dead baby crawling on the ceiling. (But Born Slippy is a great song too.)

Same. This album brought me to Underworld and Hackers brought me to Orbital.

Just ordered my own vinyl copy, had NO idea it was even on vinyl so thanks!
Side note, which AT turntable is that, LP60?

That’s rad you ordered it!
It’s a AT-LP60X from what the redditor that took the photo said. I found the photo on r/trainspotting.

I never even heard of audiotechnica until literally yesterday when I decided to look at turntables on ebay. I have a Crosley in the basement but I don't know if I trust it to not tear up my vinyl. is AT any good or should I stick with vintage everything?

I've had an LP120 for years with no issues.
They have changed the design/build a bit over the years, but from what I can tell it's all the same internals. One of the best features is the pre-amp, so if you don't have a phono jack on your receiver you can use any other input with it enabled.
Just take the time to read the instructions / do proper setup (especially the tracking force) and you'll be happy.

It was 1996 and I had just graduated HS. This was the soundtrack for my first year of college. Iggy Pop's Lust for Life was playing everywhere. And Underworld's Born Slippy is the classic that still brings back the memories any time that I hear it.
Loved it when I saw Underworld's recent Coachella set and next weekend, I'm going to see Iggy Pop perform. Blasts from the past.
Here's the soundtrack on Spotify.

Introduced me to the stranglers for which i was ever grateful.
