1 | * DiedDuringProduction: Keith Flint committed suicide on March 4, 2019. ''No Tourists'' was the final album to have any contributions from him. |
2 | * OneHitWonder: Not as much internationally, but in the US; "Firestarter" was the only track of theirs to hit the Top 40. |
3 | * ThePeteBest: The Prodigy used to have a female dancer named "Sharky". She left before their first album was released. You can see her make a cameo in the video for the Music/{{Pendulum|Band}} remix of "Voodoo People." |
4 | * TroubledProduction: The tunnel/sewer from the "Firestarter" video (actually the abandoned Aldwych tube station on the London Underground) was indeed as dank and dirty as it looks - the production crew were forced to wear masks during the shoot, while Keith Flint had to breathe all that dust in for a full day of shooting. Poetically, this was also the case with Music/WeirdAlYankovic's parody of the song for ''Series/TheWeirdAlShow'', which was filmed in ''an actual sewer.'' Al referred to it as "the foulest-smelling place [he'd] ever been." |
5 | * ReferencedBy: |
6 | ** ''Videogame/AssassinsCreedValhalla'' has an event called The Prodigy, featuring a bard named Keith introduced arguing with a cleric... that once struck by the player, leads to Keith singing "Smack my bishop! Smack my bishop!" (or in case a torch is pulled, "You are a firestarter!") |
7 | ** Hot Pants from ''Manga/JojosBizarreAdventureSteelBallRun'' possesses a [[FightingSpirit Stand]] known as Cream Starter, which is meant to be a partial reference to "Firestarter". |
8 | ** ''Westernanimation/TheAmazingWorldofGumball'' [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BzZfONg8t0Q once]] had a first-person GluttonyMontage scored by techno music in a clear homage of the "Smack My Bitch Up" video. |
9 | * WhatCouldHaveBeen: |
10 | ** Their 2002 single "Baby's Got a Temper" was going to be featured on the album ''Always Outnumbered, Never Outgunned,'' but Liam Howlett quickly got disillusioned with the song. |
11 | ** The famous "Firestarter" was recorded as an instrumental, until Howlett showed the song to Keith Flint, and, well, the rest is history. |
