Keith Flint

“When you have had the high of being on stage, especially in a band like ourselves, I can't help but search for that buzz.”

“There is something about being on stage that's a release for me. It gets my mental energy out.”

“When we were on XL, they wanted to be dangerous and they wanted to be exciting because we were dangerous and exciting!”

“We don't feel like we changed from rave, because we were never rave, to punk, because we're not punk.”

“I was quite disruptive and out there. Then I found myself in a load of remedial classes being told how to use a ruler. But when they tested my IQ, they found out I was quite intelligent.”

“We're all taught to blend in and behave.”

“I think anyone who's willing to be brutally honest with who they are and express themselves is always going to get the oddball label, the pyscho label, the twisted label. That's what happens.”

“It's a bit of a bold statement, but the Prodigy should be seen as an important cultural band.”

“I'm not here to change the world, but I do think while you're here you should have a bit of passion about life.”

“We played an old U-Boat factory in East Germany once and that was massive - 35,000 people.”

“I'm incredibly self-destructive.”

“America is really happy to be sold something.”

“When we walk onto that stage I'm not feeling like I'm ruled by any other band.”

“The TT is a very precious thing to the riders. These guys that do the roads are very unique people. On the first hand you've got the bravery, the knowledge of the circuit, the guys live this - this is what they are about. I am very aware of that.”

“Don't you think it's kind-of cool to have a band that offends MTV, that puts out a video that real fans have to dig around for, or stay up late to see?”

“Trouble is, I'm definitely on the spectrum somewhere - there's a dysfunctional side.”

“The point is to be true to yourself - otherwise you may as well give up.”

“You know, it's very easy to have a few beers with people in the music industry and suddenly be friends for life - 'Let's work together!' All of a sudden, you're trying to form a super group with a few people you've met in a club. I'm not into that, myself. Those aren't your mates.”

“To be a part of TT history is a massive achievement. It is one of, if not the greatest races on two wheels, if not on four.”

“Our buzz is from the crowd.”
