Kasabian‘s guitarist and primary songwriter Serge Pizzorno has confirmed the band hope to have their new album released in time for the outdoor gig in Leicester which has been arranged for June 21st 2014.
“We’ll have a new record, so we’ll be playing tunes from that and we’ll be playing the massive anthems that we have,” Pizzorno revealed on Kasabian’s official website. “It will just be a huge celebration, you know. The important thing will be, what’s going to happen next. It won’t be like, ‘This is great, let’s just reminisce’, it will be like, ‘Fuck, this is just half the story, what’s going to happen next’.”
Kasabian have been locked away for the majority of this year working on the successor to ‘Velociraptor!‘, and are set to celebrate the 10th anniversary of their debut album during the gig at Leicester’s Victoria Park.
“It feels like it was just meant to be,” Pizzorno told the Leicester Mercury when the concert was announced earlier this week. “It’s going to be the 10-year anniversary of the first album, so it feels right. It feels like we’ve been building up to this since the start. We’re so excited. Hopefully the whole city will come alive.”
