In the '90s, MTV banished them. Now, they're setting Coachella ablaze.
Briefly

The article reflects on the enduring impact of The Prodigy, a British electronic music group known for their dynamic performances and hits like 'Firestarter' and 'Smack My Bitch Up'. Their frontman, Keith Flint, who died in 2019, played a crucial role in building the band's iconic image and sound, merging punk rock with electronic music. Despite his absence, The Prodigy remains relevant, maintaining a significant following with their recent performances in major festivals like Coachella, illustrating the lasting influence of their music on fans across generations.
Flint's devious stage presence brought a punk rock edge to eastern England's underground rave circuit, eventually launching the group into the mainstream with 'The Fat of the Land' album.
Over 35 years later, the British group still has over 4 million monthly Spotify listeners, and just this month, they were greeted by screaming fans at Coachella.
