New album due out on the 8th of June. Few tracks on youtube, fire , underdog and fast fuse all sound good. Anyone else looking forward to it?

I'm also gonna see them in Belfast for the first time, how do people rate them live?

Seeing them in July. Should be good I reckon.

Vlad the Impaler is my favourite of their new stuff. The three new tracks I've heard already make the new album better than the second one, which was shite.

Seen them twice. The first time they were clearly stoned off their tits, and seemed to have great trouble in remembering they were on stage, never mind the words/how to play the songs.

The second time they were amazing, and played about a 5 song encore.

Underdog and Fire are great songs. Fast Fuse is good though I heard that ages ago, sure it's on the new album?

Yeah, bar a few tunes, second album was fairly shite.

Saw them last year (or was it the year before, can't remember) at the MEN Arena, they were really good considering it was in there.

Going to see them in June in Liverpool Uni, looking forward to seeing them in a nice intimate venue this time, should be good.

Er...sorry...near Southampton.
Saw them at Glastonbury a couple of years ago and will be again in a couple of weeks. They took a while to warm the crowd who didn't know their music but the Kasabian fans seemed pretty happy and I thought they settled into a good set.

Just aquired this album and four songs in it's already better than their last album.

Particularly liked 'Where did all the love go?'

Promising.

It's fecking great franco.

Don't want to get too ahead of myself here as I've only listened twice, but this has the potential to be their finest work to date.

Can't wait to see them now.

Don't rate it as highly as their first, but I definitely like it a lot better than their second effort.

Nearly every song has the potential to be fecking amazing live though. Can't wait to see them.

I think it's a more mature album than the first, with lots of variation to it, reckon it's gonna be a real grower tbh.

Second album was largely shite imo.

Top song, a real grower that one. I've given the new album a few listens now and it's very consistent, great band

Another listen in, and I love it.

Where did all the love go, Thick as Thieves and Secret Alphabet are my stand outs so far.
