Kasabian are the subject of a new Vevo documentary entitled Off The Record on the eve of the release of their For Crying Out Loud album.
In it, Serge and Tom reflect on a career trajectory which has seen them outstay most of their mid-noughties contemporaries to reach the heights of Glastonbury headlines and multiple UK number one albums – something they’ll be hoping to add to in just over a week’s time.
“I decided to give myself six weeks to write an album like they used to do back in the day and that became really inspiring” Serge Pizzorno has said of the band’s latest record.
“I made sure there was no fat on anything, it was going to be classic songs, no self-indulgence, nothing was going on there that shouldn’t. I’d heard Berry Gordy had said if you’ve not got them in the first four bars then you’re finished, so I went in with this old school attitude of songwriting.”
“We wanted to make a very positive album full of hope with guitars to remind people that it’s still relevant.”
