Firestarter was released by British electronic group The Prodigy in 1996 as the lead single from their album The Fat of the Land. With Keith Flint stepping forward as frontman, the track topped the UK Singles Chart and became a defining big beat anthem of the late 1990s. Its shouted chorus entered pop culture through radio, music television and later internet edits, where the short twisted firestarter line is isolated as a recognisable sting. Decades later it remains a shorthand for wild, rebellious energy online.
