Quote of the day

It’s a dangerous, dangerous, dangerous, dangerous drug we’ve created," he said. "I can’t get my head round it. It’s rock ‘n’ roll, it’s got the rawness and it’s edgy, but we’ve gone back to electronica and we’ve gone beyond leftfield. What else can we do? It’s a silver bullet mate. It’s fantastic."

"It's a dangerous, dangerous, dangerous, dangerous drug we've created. I can't get my head round it. It's rock 'n' roll, it's got the rawness and it's edgy, but we've gone back to electronica and we've gone beyond leftfield. What else can we do? It's a silver bullet mate. It's fantastic."

Kasabian's Tom Meighan on their forthcoming album, given more than enough rope to hang himself by NME.

What exactly might constitute going "beyond leftfield", I imagine you're wondering. Well, how's about lyrics like "Horsemeat in the burgers, people commit murders / Everyone's on bugle, we're being watched by Google"? They're taken from a song called 'Ezz-Ehh' that Meighan describes in enlightening terms: "It's a comic. It's cartoonish. It's punk. We've never done anything like it. It's dirty. It's trashy. It's Leicester." And lo, the city of Leicester's new slogan was born.
