More Boo Birds for Kasabian

I hate to keep shitting on a band that I like but this Playlouder review of Empire was just too damn funny to ignore. I can't recommend this enough. In a shocker to no one, NME LOVES the album even going so far as to say there is "going to be a hearty scrap between this lot, Muse and the Monkeys when album of the year time comes round." Doubt it.

It's not all bad news though, these guys still put on one hell of a show (Thank You, DC!) and Filter is now reporting that Mew will be opening up for Kasabian on their upcoming tour. This one shouldn't be missed. Dates below:

27 - Toronto, ONT - Phoenix Concert Theatre
29 - Detroit, MI - St. Andrews Hall

the album might be the worst piece of crap to come out this year. nme have lost their minds. or got a hearty pay-off from their record label. stick to listening to the first kasabian album. at least that one was decent. this one is a scar on the face of music.
