As we noted back in March, Kasabian have managed to weather British rock and roll's decade-long storm, enduring against all odds at a time when many of their fellow bands from the early 2000s have faded from public eye. The Leicester crew's style has changed a bit in recent years, but no matter -- they're still one of England's greatest modern-day musical exports.
And now, after the release of their sixth studio album, For Crying Out Loud, Kasabian return to our shores for a fall North American tour. The eight-show run includes a September 16 date at Royale in Boston; tickets go on sale Friday (June 23) at 10 a.m.
Earlier this year, Kasabian threw down an almost Yacht-Rockian single in "You're In Love With A Psycho," continuing the band's quest to evolve their sound beyond from the pub-soaked lad rock of the mid-2000s. "I was listening to ESG and Talking Heads and in that kind of world, then it just took on a life of its own," Serge Pizzorno tells Q Magazine. "I just wanted to make a guitar record that was relevant and important."
Listen to it below, as well as other tracks from the new LP, but not before feasting your eyes on all their upcoming tour dates. Featured photo by Neil Bedford via Kasabian on Facebook.
