You are a big loser if you don't like Kasabian.

MTV bio:
"Finding the pop music around them dull and mannered, Kasabian mixed a bit of the Stones, Happy Mondays, and Primal Scream with DJ Shadow-influenced electronics to take the British press by storm... "

Whose video "Club Foot" you can view here:

And whose album you can hear here:

This was really a "What are you listening to?" thread, but I got super snotty about it.

So do share if you're listening to someone cooler.

Which I doubt.



:silly:

1. Kasabian?

She was cool.


But she's no Leslie Van Houten.


Rrrrrowwwwrrrr! Leslie's mudereriffic!

2. I am forbidden to look at both pictures.

How upsetting.

I do find their choice of name questionable, but their music rocks.

What *is* it today with musicians and their extra-music proclivities?

3. Yeah, I'm actually listening right now,

and they ain't half bad. Beats Interpol with a stick, that's for sure.

I wonder if maybe the name has a non-Manson Family source?

[tjdee]

5. No..it's from the Manson family.

Way I heard it on...MTV2 (I think) was that their manager/someone in the band (?) was reading a book on the Manson family, saw the name and went hey that's cool.

Sigh.

4. I can't fuckin' believe someone actually beat me to this!

Great (and dangerous) minds...:)

And Lulu was a one sexylittlehippiegirl. Too bad about that whole knifing thing.
