Keith Flint

I still remember the first time the Firestarter video hit me — that snarling figure in the tunnel felt genuinely dangerous, and pop music rarely manages that. What fascinates me most about Keith Flint is the gap between persona and man: the demon onstage was, by most accounts, a warm, motorbike-obsessed bloke who loved his local pub. He started as a dancer and willed himself into one of the most iconic frontmen of the rave era, which tells me his stage fury was craft, not accident. His death in 2019 still stings; few performers have ever embodied pure kinetic energy so completely.
