Kasabian announce Dublin and Belfast live dates

The Odyssey Arena and the O2 will be on fire on November 25 and 26.

The Hot Press Newsdesk, 06 Sep 2011

The much anticipated Velociprator album will be out on September 16 and its deluxe edition includes a DVD of their live at Dublin's O2 in 2009. New tracks 'Switchblade Smiles' and 'Days Are Forgotten' have already become massive hits, with the latter having been chosen as the soundbed for the new Sky Sports football season TV ad.

The b-side of the 'Days Are Forgotten' single, 'Pistols At Dawn', is now also being streamed online from their website.

Kasabian play The Odyssey Arena, Belfast on Friday 25th November and The O2, Dublin on Saturday 26th November 2011.

Tickets are priced £33 and €33.50 respectively and go on sale this Friday September 9.

Stonking new record from former Lad rockers. Who’d have thought?

Kasabian have wrung no more than a handful of killer pop moments from a somewhat one-dimensional sound. But the enthusiastic crowd reaction at Hineken Green Energy has tempered my less than converted position just a little.

Kasabian are the first headline act to be confirmed for this year’s Heineken Green Energy festival, which takes place from May 5 to 7 in Dublin Castle.

Are they Madchester tribute band charlatans, an even more half-baked Kula Shaker, or swaggering rock monsters from Leicester? The jury is still out in the case of The People vs Kasabian.

Too many half-baked ideas, none of them original, shoehorned into insubstantial songs.

Fresh from strutting their stuff at Oxegen, Kasabian will be joined by The Rapture and Hot Chip to play a special show in Belfast as part of a new Channel 4 music programme.

Good news for those who didnt manage to get hold of an Oxegen ticket.

When not locking themselves away in 18th-century farmhouses and getting freaked out by UFOs, Mani-endorsed English rockers Kasabian are setting ablaze the UK indie scene and claiming, “If you cut our skins, we bleed rock’n’roll.” Danielle Brigham talks to the group’s consummately charming frontman, Tom Meighan

2004-11-23

By now we’ve become used to new bands arriving in a blaze of their own hyperbole, but even still Leicester’s Kasabian do seem to fancy themselves a fair bit.
