New Kasabian album stream at MySpace

I was just thinking the other day that I was surprised that the new Kasabian album, Empire, hadn't leaked yet. Well, as far as I know, it still hasn't but the band has attempted to stay one step ahead by putting up the entire album stream on MySpace. Listen here. So far, every response on the Stereogum post board has been negative. I'm not sure if that's just typical hipster hate but it's certainly not a good sign. I need to listen to it a few times before I form an opinion.

utra8201 has some Kasabian (and the Killers) tour dates.
