Following the tragic death of Keith Flint in March this year, legendary rave act The Prodigy cancelled all of their upcoming performances and stopped working on music together.
Now, more than five months on, the British act have revealed that they’re back in the studio making new music, for the first time since Keith’s passing.

The Prodigy released their latest album No Tourists in November 2018, but their time on the road in support of the album was cut short after Keith Flint’s untimely passing. At his inquest, the coroner ruled that suicide had been considered as the cause of his death, but an open verdict eventually ruled a lack of evidence to support this.
A few months ago, his bandmates sent a message to fans encouraging anyone struggling with mental health issues to seek help. “It has been a tough time for everyone over the last few weeks since Keef’s passing,” the band wrote on Instagram. “If you are struggling with depression, addiction or the impact of suicide, please do not suffer in silence… The Prodigy fully support the campaign to improve mental health for all and give it the respect it deserves.”
