I know Serge and the gang don’t wanna admit it but the band is over. I doubt they last past this newest LP. Times up.

Never a good sign when Tom's songs are BETTER than the new Kasabian songs. Spoiler: Tom's songs aren't that good!!!

They should get a new frontman. Set up an audition or something.

I honestly liked it more the other two It’s honestly their best post Tom song but it feels like it should be on Serge’s next solo record. |

Got to say I wasn't expecting much from them at Knebworth without Tom and wasn't arsed about catching them or not. Fair play though, they were really good. Loads of energy, Serge sounded good and yeah, very impressed.

I know Serge and the gang don’t wanna admit it but the band is over. I doubt they last past this newest LP. Times up. What brings you to that conclusion? I only ask this because you seem to think Noel is doing just fine with a #1 record and playing small capacity venues. Kasabian without Tom sold out the smaller venue tour within hours, and are now already onto arenas. Albeit 4 dates. Their support slot at Knebworth went down a storm and they got rave reviews from the tour without Tom. I agree with you about the sound being very SLP and not Kasabian but i'm wondering why you draw the conclusion they're finished and Noel is doing just fine? |

I get why people see resemblances between SLP and the new tracks. But there some as well with the first record. That electronic hip hop vibe is all over the place in the SCRIPTVRE intro. If we all can't help but imagine Tom singing these tracks it's because it feels Kasabian enough.
Don't get me wrong, I'd prefer Tom as the lead singer or the band splitting to form a new project. But the heart of the band is there. It's just missing the soul.

Comparing Kasabian in 2022 with no Tom to solo Noel is kind of a joke right? They are in much much different places. Kasabian was slipping years before Tom’a departure. The tunes were getting worse, so was the critical reception, sales. It seemed their moment had passed. They had 1 single chart in the top 100 in almost 10 years. Hate to break it to you but Noel is nowhere near what’s going on in camp Kasabian. |

Noel’s last studio album went #1 with sales of 300,000+. Not too shabby. It also contained his second biggest hit single which went in at like #31 but more importantly hung around in the charts for another 3 months. Normally his songs debut high and fall off in a week or 2. The reviews were also strong. Just last year Noel scored his 4th career #1 album. Doesn’t sound like same boat as Kasabian to me. And why are you guys bringing Noel into this thread. It has nothing to do with Noel. It’s about the state of Kasabian after a forgettable 2017 album, losing their frontman and releasing sub par music that isn’t making a dent anywhere. |

I already said they’ve had 1 song chart in the last 8-9 years. You named the one that did. Congratulations. That doesn’t change the fact that Noel had one of his biggest solo hits despite members of this forum claiming MOON flopped and Holy Mountain sucked. Turns out neither was true. You’ve got to be kidding yourself if you think this is the same Kasabian from 2009. A lot has changed. None of it for the better. No idea why Noel keeps getting thrown into discussions here. Completely different topics. |

But the heart of the band is there. It's just missing the soul. Tom was without question the fire of the band. He was a great frontman and always slayed in a live setting. Losing him is absolutely gigantic in my opinion. The electronic sounds on their debut have little to do with Serge, that was all Chris Karloff doing. As we all know he got the boot! Which is a shame because I'd loved to have heard more of his sonic landscapes on future Kasabian albums. I'm not sure just how much Ian Matthews (a late comer) or Chris Edwards contribute. It always seemed like the Tom/Serge show much like Liam/Noel with Oasis. |

Guitar bands very rarely have singles chart and you fully well know that. Their singles do better than most indie bands bar maybe Arctic Monkeys. Conveniently left out that all those supposedly declining albums all made number one. Something you like to point out to suit the narrative Noel is doing so well. Metacritic has their last three albums at 79,62, and 70 respectively. that much different to Liam or Noel? Likewise every guitar band has declining sales because albums sell less and less each year. Something you also point out regularly. You are incredibly twisting each narrative to suit your own. Kasabian are doing absolutely fine and like i said about to play arenas. Noel isn't failing either but i find it incredible you think one is soaring and one is "finished". |

I’m here to talk Kasabian and major concerns in the post Tom era. This shitting on Noel topic over his MOON era now not spilt into multiple thread topics started by you over the last few days. A band losing their frontman, their identity, their fire is a major deal man. It doesn’t help that the new singles haven’t been that well received either. I have doubts long term. It’s all speculation. |

It’s all speculation. I brought it up because in another thread we spoke about Noel because i said he's on the decline in ticket sales massively from when he started out. You pointed towards his 3 number 1's as a measure of his success. Yet this band in your view is "finished" and on the decline since 2008 despite every single album going to number 1 and them now moving onto arenas without Tom. They are anything but finished. By the way you judge apparent success and the way everybody else does. |
