    Lead singer of the Prodigy has been found dead

    No not in a house fire before anyone says it!

    RIP fella - not my cup of tea musically but inspired a lot of people in that era - only 49 year old too

    Absolutely gutted. Seen them twice, hoped to see them many more times, based my GCSE art course work on him, even play our entrance music. I had a close affinity with that man.

    Proper wounded. RIP [emoji852]️

    If there was a soundtrack to my life the Prodigy would feature massively on it so was shocked and gutted to hear this.

    RIP fella.

    Not my cup of tea as a whole but recognise a few of their more well known songs.

    Band member tweeted saying he took his own life - RIP.

    Their first 3 albums were simply brilliant, went a bit downhill after that but their latest album was a throwback to their early stuff.
    Fantastic band, one of my all time favourites.
    Saw them live a few times back in 91-94
    Gutted about this news.

    That's insane. Like having not heard Hey Jude or Stairway to Heaven.

    Not sure I’d put firestarter in that category mind!

    I dont believe for one second that you have never heard of them. Even my 81 year old dad has heard of them.

    I'd say it got the play and the subsequent airtime in film and tv that they have. Not talking about musical quality. Just exposure. It was and is ****ing everywhere.

    Mad really, cos for me it’s not even one of their top 20.

    I was never a fan of that track, iconic as it became.
