Keith Flint dies at 49: Larger-than-life frontman was arguably The Prodigy's most instantly identifiable element
FirstpostOn Monday afternoon, news began trickling in that Keith Flint had breathed his last at the age of 49. The Guardian reported that the Prodigy vocalist was found dead at his Essex home and that “he death is not being treated as suspicious” A little over a decade ago, Zak Biddu, founder and managing director of music agency UKNY Music, was in India to lay the foundation for what would be British act The Prodigy’s first foray into Indian territory — a tour aptly titled ‘Invasion’. While most segments featured individual band members in the limelight with the others lurking around in the background, the onscreen dynamic, however, seemed to have evolved from The Prodigy’s last video offering. Legend The 10th edition of the Download Festival would see Metallica and Black Sabbath headline the second and third days of what is arguably Britain’s premier rock festival. If you go back to when that Firestarter video first came out, and when we all first saw it, the character that Keith plays in that, I think elevated The Prodigy from what they were to this iconic and original band.” Flint leaves behind the legacy of a man who arrived on the rave scene, saw it, took from it what he liked, threw out what he didn’t and along with his cohorts, ended up changing the face of electronic music forever.
