Ladies and gentlemen, The almighty KASABIAN is back. More insane and much more impressing with “The West Rider Pauper Lunatic Asylum”.
This is quite an album for a band of such talent, the title reminds me of the legendary “Sergeant Pepper’s ..” but the content is far more powerful, exquisite and, in many times, weird. But not that bad-weird (like Jonas Suck-My-Dick Brothers), great-weird like Marc Bolan and his T.REX.
In many tracks along the album, you can actually feel the solid influence by T.REX in Pizzorno’s riff on the guitar and in Tom Meighan’s slow and sometimes husky vocals.
“Fast Fuse”, “Fire and “Vlad: The Impaler” are three classic KASABIAN tunes, but this album has much more to offer like “Ladies And Gentlemen (Roll The Dice)” a very melodic and smooth tune, showing how deep OASIS inspire these guys.
Go buy it! Don’t wait for anything else! And please, do NOT download it. It’s worth the investment. This album is 100% pure British rock’n'roll.
