I know the classics from them (Firestarter, Smack My Bitch Up) but that's about it, unfortunately. I will remedy this in the coming days (hooray Spotify)!

Bloodporne Posted March 4, 2019 Share Posted March 4, 2019 I can't say I'm a fan but the continuing string of musician suicides is always really sad to hear. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SoberChef Posted March 4, 2019 Share Posted March 4, 2019 Having my teens in the 90's, this is one band that helped form a large swath of musical taste I have today and this is awful news. Suicide period is fucking bull shit but how it robs the masses of so much creative talent is tragic. RIP Flint! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bloodporne Posted March 4, 2019 Share Posted March 4, 2019 I did love that Firestarter video itself back in the day though, thought it was creepy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IdeaOfEvil Posted March 4, 2019 Share Posted March 4, 2019 Oh man =( I don't think there was one album of theirs that didn't have at least two to three solid tracks on them. And even though they haven't done anything lately, The Prodigy has always been on my playlist rotation since back in '95 =/ Sucky day already... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fuckle85 Posted March 5, 2019 Share Posted March 5, 2019 Kieth had some serious presence in the band, which will be missed. Some of their subject matter was...not the most forward thinking (The SMBU video was a stunning piece of filmaking...until the dumb twist at the end), but their music and live performances always had an energy that can't be denied. I was a huge fan of them in the 90's and stopped listening after TFOTL but discovered a couple years ago they were still playing to MASSIVE crowds in various places worldwide and still had a very energetic live show which kinda made me want to see them live.
