    No details how he died

    But I dont think this one is going to be an OD

    Looking up their tour schedule 2018 « The Prodigy On Tour pretty damn hectic for a 49 yr old, 50 concerts last year


    Last concert seems to be Auckland 5th of feb this year

    Yeah, didnt think it would be druga, he was really into endurance bike racing and stuff.

    But suicide, jeez

    I believe in the book Generation Ecstasy there were a few pages dedicated to Prodigy and iirc one page featured a magazine cover at the time, where Flint had a gun to his head, representing how they saw the death of the rave movement as it escalated into stadium venues and they felt largely responsible for it.

    Yeah, this one bites

    Because it was a real rags to riches story.

    Apparently he had recently seperated or divorced from his wife, home was up for sale couple days before he died.

    Despite any theories anyone else comes up with, still think that tour schedule would have added to tbe stress

    He admitted to taking drugs back in 2014 so it could have been an OD.

    Then again his wife was Japanese so perhaps he committed Seppuku?
