Kasabian

Kicking off with the warmongering blast of ‘Club Foot’, the Leicestershire mob seem intent on making a record that will soundtrack every drug-fuelled rampage for the remainder of the decade. The magnificent ‘Processed Beats’, forceful ‘Reason Is Treason’ and baggy-aping ‘L.S.F.’ are already familiar and are joined by a host of other equally thrilling new tunes. ‘I.D.’ is bass heavy indie-dance, ‘Test Transmission’ all backward guitar and space rock and closer ‘U.Boat’ effective, moody and quite brilliant.

Kasabian are as cocky as Oasis, as party-inducing as the Mondays and as inventive as Primal Scream, in short they are set to be huge. Stay out of their line of fire though, ‘cause these boys have a deadly arsenal.

“Edgy, euphoric and electrifying” NME (UK)

“Kasabian are more concerned with beating you around the brain with a bewildering array of bass and beats than they are with making you dance” The Fly (UK)
