| | Customer Reviews: Best band of the last decade. (13 August 2010)To put it honestly Kasabian are a good band as they are, but compared to the tripe that has existed in the last decade, they are in a different league. They have vision and ambition to try different things which is quite refreshing in the modern day and age where pointless indie bands, who take no shame in trying to sound exactly like eachother, rule the roost. To be blunt, Kasabian have sealed their status as the best band of the last decade, which is probably one of, if not the worst, music has ever seen, with this album being the best of the last ten years. Why 10"? (26 July 2010)Bought this as a gift and it was well received. Its a great album, but confused at the need for it to be on 10" not 12", but otherwise looked great There is HOPE for modern MUSIC (22 July 2010)As a 41 year old I would like to think i'm quite open to what I listen to, whether it be; Reggae, Pop, Rock, Soul, Dance, Dubstep the list of genre's is endless..... lol. But over the last ten years or so, i've been quite disappointed in the decline of much of today's modern music. Why? well! most of today's music has lost something, can't exactly put my finger on it, it could be because it's lost it's soul, it's irony, it's power to provoke whatever it is I find myself drifting to the classics, The Beatles, The Rolling Stones, The Who, Jimi Hendrix etc, etc... The last group that really spoke to me was Radiohead which had passion, intrigue, soul and most of all it was music that you couldn't ignore. GOOD MUSIC to me, whatever genre it is, is suppose to move you, either emotionally, physically, or intellectually. This ALBUM is one of those albums, I can happily say. If you are after an album which makes your feet tap, brain think, heartpound and most of all put a smile on your face, BUY THIS MAJESTIC ROCK ALBUM. THANKS BOYS. buy it ... (29 June 2010)What can I say about this record that hasnt been said before? nothing...just buy it. Some people have referred to this as a theme album but the only theme I can hear is the theme of good music. This record cannot be recommended highly enough! A huge step forward (16 May 2010)One thing I've never understood is the common need people seem to have to compare Kasabian and Oasis. Okay, there's a swagger and arrogance about both groups, but whereas the latter more or less recycled the same (limited) ideas for a decade, Kasabian, with this, their third album, have made something very ambitious. The singles have been the booming, obvious, commercial tracks, but there's much more to the record than that. It's a big - no, huge - step forward. The songs on the first Kasabian album were all quite samey, the second album had more variety but was flawed to say the least. 'West Ryder Pauper Lunatic Asylum' has disparate influences, all the way from the sixties through to the modern day, all incorporated fluently. This is a group not afraid to try new things, and for that I can only applaud them. This is a collection of twelve great songs. |
