The Prodigy honours late frontman Keith Flint at Coachella
The Prodigy have honoured late frontman Keith Flint during their Coachella 2025 set.
The band's MC, Maxim, led the group through a 14-song set at the Mojave Tent.
During the show, their third at the festival, the band beamed a laser outline of the late singer on stage that moved in time to their 1996 hit single Firestarter, with snippets of his vocals. They did a similar thing at last year's Reading and Leeds Festival.
Elsewhere in their set they smashed through hits from their back catalogue including Breathe, Omen and Smack My Bitch Up.
Flint died by suicide on 4 March 2019. The frontman was found dead at his home in Essex. He was 49 years old.
"It is with deepest shock and sadness that we can confirm the death of our brother and best friend Keith Flint," wrote Prodigy members Liam Howlett and Maxim Reality in a statement at the time.
In an Instagram post, Howlett added: "The news is true. I can't believe I'm saying this but our brother Keith took his own life over the weekend.
"I'm shell shocked, f**kin angry, confused and heartbroken."
Elsewhere at Coachella, fans were treated to performances by Missy Elliott, Lady Gaga and AG Cook.
Travis Scott, Green Day, Charli XCX, Jimmy Eat World, Clairo, Japanese Breakfast, Sam Fender and Weezer are also set to perform this weekend.

Meet Leighton Meester's New Character In ‘The Buccaneers' Season 2 Trailer As Nan Tries To 'Let Go' Of Guy
The full trailer for Season 2 of Apple TV+'s period drama The Buccaneers has arrived, and it teases more sisterhood, romance, love affairs, bold declarations, bright gowns, breathtaking landscapes and a plot twist or two. The second season welcomes series newcomer Leighton Meester, whose character Nell can be seen at the end of the clip asking Christina Hendricks' Patricia St. George to introduce her to Kristine Frøseth's Nan St. George. More from Deadline 'The Buccaneers' Season 2 Casts Greg Wise, Maria Almeida, Grace Ambrose & Jacob Ifan 'The Buccaneers' Season 2 Sets Apple TV+ Release Date; Reveals First Look At Leighton Meester, Photos & Teaser Clip Zoë Kravitz On Playing A "More Psychotic" Version Of Herself In 'The Studio': "If You Can't Make Fun Of Yourself, I Think There's Something Wrong" 'Theo and I are happy,' Nan says at the beginning of the clip. 'I'm in this for life.' This declaration comes after Nan had to make a difficult decision and marry Theo (Guy Remmers), Duke of Tintagel, so that her flame Guy Thwarte (Matthew Broome) could help Nan's sister Ginny (Imogen Waterhouse) escape from her abusive husband Lord James Seadown (Barney Fishwick). 'Everything before 'I do' is now irrelevant,' Theo's mother, the Dowager Duchess of Tintagel (Amelia Bullmore) tells Nan in the woods, sternly advising Nan to be faithful to her husband. 'All Theo needs to know is that he has a dutiful and loving wife, but Annabel, anyone can be a wife. You are…' 'A Duchess,' Nan completes. 'I really want to make this version of my life work. I have to let Guy go.' The clip features Chappell Roan's 'Good Luck Babe,' continuing the tradition established in Season 1 with a modern soundtrack of mostly women artists. Cue Guy's voiceover perspective as he and Jinny escape somewhere bright and sunny with Jinny's baby. 'Everything has changed except the way I feel,' he says as he looks at the newspaper headlines, which tell him what is happening in Nan's world, advertising her honeymoon with Theo. 'Theo thinks this is real,' Nan tells her mother. 'He thinks I chose to marry him.' 'You did the bravest thing I have ever known,' Patty tells Nan. 'And saved your sister.' Nan fiercely stands up to Lord Seadown both one on one and at a dining table full of guests. 'No man should be allowed to own his wife,' she asserts. Cut to a triumphant walk by Nan in a bright red dress with a bold hairstyle as guests turn heads. 'Happily Ever After' flashes in bright neon blue across the long train of her dress. More musical moments and needle drops in Season 2 will include Taylor Swift, as well as songs from Lady Gaga, Sabrina Carpenter, Gracie Abrams, Clairo, Sharon Van Etten, St. Vincent, Bleachers and The Last Dinner Party. The original soundtrack for season two celebrates the return of executive music producer Stella Mozgawa and features Empress Of's new single 'Little Secret' out today with the trailer along with new music from Suki Waterhouse, Madi Diaz, Holly Humberstone, Kacy Hill, Jade Bird, Emily Kokal of Warpaint and more. The second installment of the show, inspired by Edith Wharton's unfinished novel, also reunites returning stars Alisha Boe, Aubri Ibrag, Josie Totah, Mia Threapleton and more. The Buccaneers returns to Apple TV+ Wednesday, June 18, 2025 with one episode followed by one new episode every Wednesday through August 6, 2025.

‘The Buccaneers' Season 2 Soundtrack: From Griff To Sabrina Carpenter
With its first season Apple TV+'s The Buccaneers made a name for itself with its focus on all women musicians featured in the show's soundtrack, with needle drops like Taylor Swift's 'Nothing New,' Japanese Breakfast's 'Be Sweet,' Brandi Carlile's 'Broken Horses' and Bikini Kill's 'Rebel Girl' featured in the first season, to name a few. Swift's 'Nothing New' was used in the scene where Nan St. George (Kristine Frøseth) and her friends made their society debut, similar to the procession of Netflix's Bridgerton in white dresses and feathers. Later on in the first season, songs like 'Kissing Lessons' by Lucy Dacus, 'Cedar' by Gracie Abrams,' 'Bite the Hand' by boygenius, 'Want Want' by Maggie Rogers' and another Taylor Swift anthem, 'Long Live' highlighted the high stakes of Nan's decisions. Season 2 continues in the vein of mostly women artsits featured on the soundtrack. It also features Chloé Caillet's remix of 'North American Scum' by the Emily Kokal featuring Miya Folick. Jennifer Smuckler and Christina Azarian serve as music leads on the show, and Stella Mozgawa worked as executive music producer, collaborating with artists for certain songs featured in later episodes.
