Wow!

I'm from Leicester and I promise that I'm not being biased but I love all their music!!!
Maybe, just maybe there should be a ballad/anthem named 'Coalville' with an Wave crashing bass and drum beat, uplifting melody but depressing lyrics.

One of my favourite albums!!

This album is amazing! I can't stop listening to it! My personal favourites are Acid Turkish Bath, Re-wired, Days are forgotten and of course, the song Velociraptor! I also think La Fee Verte is good- a bit different to the usual Kasabian song!! I definitely recommend it!!😊😊

The Coolest Band Around

Great record. All good songs with 4 brilliant stand outs -Days Are Forgotten, Rewired, I Hear Voices and the unbelievably superb Goodbye Kiss. Buy it and enjoy!!

If the whole album was like la fee verge and let's roll like we used to it would be a classic

The reason they haven't had a classic yet isn't because they can't its becouse there are too many songs which sound the same and there are 2 or 3 songs usually on each album which are really commercial and cheesy

Different.... but great!!

I love Kasabian and I've been a fan for quite some time, this album is definitely different, just as West Pauper was different from the self titled first album and Empire.
Good on them for trying something different - it worked!
I must admit, I didn't love the album at first, but I gave it the benefit of the doubt and now I've added to my 'ultimate' playlist. 5 stars from me!!!

Superb!

Their music is so good that you think that you've heard somewhere else, and then you realise it's just brilliance of Kasabian. Best album so far!

This album will 'influence' a future generation of musicians.

Not only is this their best album to date, but it will without a doubt be referenced as an influence by a future generation of musicians. Great arrangements, good hooks and melodies, it is up there with other works from the last four decades considered 'all time greats'.

Awesome

Great album. A bit different to their first album but well worth buying. I would also recommend it to people who want to try something different. Especially younger people.

Think about it...

Why have people rated this album badly? Yes it may not be up to their standards but they tried something different and in my opinion made a great album. All artists have to take a different approach every now and them as otherwise it gets boring, common sense really. As always, the lyrics are brilliant and the instruments on some of the songs are very strong.

Velociraptor! - Kasabian

Velociraptor! was the first album by Kasabian that I had listened to in full and when I did I was completely stunned. "Let's Roll Just Like We Used To" starts the album of in a delightfully psychadelic fashion that lightens up your mind beautifully. "Days Are Forgotten" continues on carrying a simple riff and a brilliant chorus, "Goodbye Kiss" is a melancholic beauty with lovelorn lyrics and subtle guitar and "La Fee Verte" allows mastermind Serge Pizzorno to show off his vocal chords to astoundingly bizzare effect. Afterwards the explosive title track punches you unexpectedly in the ears, shining with garage riffs, very english vocal delivery from Tom Meighan and an overall feeling of "I didn't see that one coming", then the unashamedly eccentric "Acid Turkish Bath (Shelter From The Storm)" kicks in with pounding violins and spaced out vocals, cementing itself as one of Kasabians' more progressive tracks. Processed beats and synthesised soundscapes follow in "I Hear Voices" which provides a very nice contrast between tracks, "Re-Wired", one of the standout tracks, mixes Meighan's Gallagher-esque vox with a hard-hitting beat to create the perfect alternative rock song. "Man Of Simple Pleasures" brings a sound perfect for a recovering alcoholic's defiant drive into a new life, "Switchblade Smiles", the star track on this album, shows Kasabian in their true colours, which is an amazing thing to behold, with devilishly masculine synths, Pizzorno's otherworldly wail and a riff and beat to match, it is truely a stunner, The LP ends with "Neon Moon", a gorgeous song with Pink Floyd's "Wish You Were Here" written all over it. A perfect end to a perfect album. 10/10

I like it but...

I like it but it isn't their best. Switchblade smiles is great but I find a lot of the songs REEEAAALLLY boring. Like fir instance, Let's Roll Just like We Used To is soo boring. Yes, I like Rewired but seriously I'm not tooooo keen on this album. Where's the ol' shoot the runner?

Best Live Band

These songs need to be heard live to really give them Justice! A top quality album and lives up to expectation of the best UK band around! Play it loud and when your driving you will be bizzing. They manage to keep interesting by each album. Kasabian nail it again.

BEST KASABIAN ALBUM

I recently got in to kasabian in the past few months & after hearing all 4 of their albums, I can now safely say this is by far their best. There is not 1 song that I dislike & my favourites are la fee verte & neon noon. Switchblade smiles & re-wired are amazing too!!

Goodbye Kiss...

Gives me chills - it takes me back to my roots of 60's rock. This album is amazing! Thanks for making my musical tastes non redundant! Cheers guys...btw; you were fantastic on Graham Norton last night!

Bad Album, great live though

Kasabian are one of the best live acts around but again this album proves they make great singles but overall very poor albums, and this has to be their worst attempt yet. I thought west Ryder was a massive improvement and I was hoping this would be even better but sadly not. Not in the same league as arctic monkeys, definitely an album to be forgotten!

Great singles, not a great album

The main songs on this are as strong a singles as you will ever hear. Days are forgotten, re-wired, switchblade smiles, la fee verte are amongst the very best they have done. Unfortunately some of the other stuff sounds similar but less good. As a result, as a complete album it feels very hit and miss. Some of the electronic tracks apart from switchblade smiles are the worst offenders as they appear far weaker than similar tracks from the first album.

Well I liked it :-)

I read a few of the reviews, then listened to the preview of each track to make up my own mind.
I liked what I heard and bought the album. No regrets at all. I listen to it in the car, and whilst out jogging. Cracking album, well worth the money.
