Except that they sound a whole lot like the Verve on a lot of songs (like the last 6 or so), exactly like BRMC (thus JAMC) on another and with some pretty strong Primal Scream and Stone Roses flourishes.  Nothing wrong with it - at least the learned from the right sources. I'm looking forward to the show.

that's the best way to sum it up, they're completely derivative, but they've picked great influences ... fun band, great knack for writing pop hooks [/b]

Hoya, you frustrate me.

When youre 50 and listening to an oldies station with your kids one of them ask you if you were around to remember Kasabian, you can tell them, "No, it wasnt worth $10 to me."
 
 If you like the album, youll be blown away by them live. [/b]

Seriously!! what a tit this chap is..not paying $10 to see a band play their record?? so you only go to shows with bands with 2+ records?? weird approach...A good 40 minute set is more than enough from most bands for me...
 
 Kasabian may not be the most original export..but the Stone Roses aren't around anymore, Primal Scream doesn't tour much...neither do the Charlatans, Blur or Oasis..this is pretty much what we get..and I'm happy as hale for it!

I also find it effective while discussing British bands, to actually speak as though youre British as well. I kid, I kid...
 
 Dont know why Im spending time defending them (bored at work) but they do add a couple tracks that arent on the album as well.
 
 '55' was one of their strongest songs of the set and its not on the album.

That and they blew my friends and I completely away and we had barely heard of them before the show.
 
 Everyone has influences.  I certainly dont think theyre rip off artists by any stretch.

It's all the NMEs "fault"...did anyone get this month's "Q" with Coldplay on the cover? it has a Shaun Ryder chronology..he's aged pretty badly..looks like Darth Vader when they removed his mask...
 
 also, the new Mojo with Oasis on the cover is a classic...and it seems Kele Okereke is gay...ah the tabloid gossip...
 
 I'll be handing cds outside the show so say hi..and it's pronounced Fee-ko..not Fi-Co  :p

Completely unrelated....And I mean completely.  
 
 Is Morrissey gay?  Read somewhere that he was but Ive seen so many articles that contradict each other.  
 
 Dude, I need to go home.

for a while i think he claimed he was "asexual", like he had no sexual feelings at all for any gender or animal, but i think he now admits he's gay ... but i could be wrong on that ...

aha. thanks.
 
 Back on topic. I'm definitely coming to check out Kasabian because I only hear good things about them from people who've gone before me. What about Rock 'n' Roll Soldiers and Mad Action? Are they local? Should I scarf down my dinner and make it to the club by 8 to see them?

Whatever you do, don't miss The OC.
