L. Brilliant Posted October 14, 2021 Share Posted October 14, 2021 Always seemed like the emptiest, most vacant pish to me, and that unlikeable singer had nothing between the ears. @Bert Raccoon usually seems like a kenner though, what have I missed? I did think that Underdog (?) tune that lifts the drums from Scenario seemed fine other than the vox Fair play for distancing themselves from domestic abuser though and setting a bit of an example 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was Rob Harvey apparently, who was rumoured to be joining.

Was never a fan until a few years ago as I just saw them as a bit of a "footy lad" band but actually started listening to their albums and they're just a good fun band and one of the best live acts going. Nothing groundbreaking but they're excellent at what they do which is big sing along anthems. I think people will always derided bands like Kasabian much like Oasis and The Stone Roses before them more for what they represent rather than their actual music 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A genuinely cool band. Kasabian and Oasis are cheap knock offs in comparison. "Good fun" perhaps, cool, never. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I totally agree with you in regards to The Stone Roses but I also feel bands like Oasis and Kasabian have their place. Oasis more so have songs that defined an era in a way I don't even think The Stone Roses managed 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The highest chart placing for "The Stone Roses" was number 19. Bands like The Happy Mondays and The Stone Roses only peeked round the corner of the door in terms of commercial success. Oasis were right place, right time and kicked the door down. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Saw them in Glasgow at the tail end of last year and he absolutely smashed it leading the band but you got the feeling that was what he's always wanted and as much as what Tom has done is inplorable, I think he was ousted a tad too easily 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Staggie_93 Posted May 7, 2022 Share Posted May 7, 2022 That’s not for me either. Should’ve called it a day as Kasabian and released both these new songs under his solo project. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Busta Nut Posted April 20, 2023 Share Posted April 20, 2023 I'm digging deep today. I heard a Kasabian song today. one of the new ones. I thought it was ok so I was gonna give the last Album another spin. Will do it the mora maybe but I couldn't stand it. You lads are spot on with the Serge vanity stuff etc. I saw them live at Hampden and they smashed it live too, maybe that was due to everyone enjoying a good jump about. I also saw Tom Meighan in the Garage a few months ago and he was fucking great. His new stuff is far better than Kasabian's. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
