When i first heard of Kasabian I thought they would just be another band hanging on to the coat tails of the 'Britpop' era and would fade into obscurity within no time. However i do think Kasabian have taken great inspiration from their heroes of britpop but have built on their success and added an extra edge to their music. This album is full of indie anthems that will be rolled out for years to come. The album starts in almost euphoric fashion with the opening track 'Club foot'. This track starts the swagger of Kasabian which has not been seen in British music since the early days of Oasis. It is a good song and leaves you wanting more of the same from ...  Read the complete review

Kasabian's debut album houses so many classics it's hard to remember this is just a debut and not from a band that have been together for many more years. If you've not heard this record, it comes highly recommended. Opening with ethereal synths, the opening track, club foot, quickly begins to flex its muscles an pulsate. The fusion of electro and rock is very strong, and this remains a feature through out. The chorus is also a live anthem, as any one who has seen them live will testify. The album runs very well, all the songs place together with a sense of fiery cohesion, with Tom Meighan's vocals snarling and almost bruising. ID however, stand ...  Read the complete review

Well I have to say I was not a fan of Kasabian when they first came on the scene. Then a few years ago I heard them live, and did a complete U-turn on the band. Bought both there albums and have not looked back. There self titled debut was the first one I bought. So am going to give it a review. Here is what I make of the songs: 1. Club Foot - Blazing start to the album. Loud, heavy beats, a really powerful sound. This sets the mood for the album and tells you what Kasabian are all about. 8/10 2. Processed Beats - Not a bad offering again. A little less heavy than previous track. More of an easy listen. 7/10 3. Reason Is ...  Read the complete review

this album is just full of banging hits. without this kasabian wouldn't be the well known band they are today. it is truely littered with hits which will keep you listening for hours and hours. the band did a brilliant job and this debut album shows all about what kasabian are, it puts them in a nut shell. catchy indie tunes which will appeal to all. great vocals matched with serge's guitar masterpieces. this album is one that simply can't be missed. if it is not in your collection already then i am simply astounded. this puts empire and west ryder lunatic pauper asylum to shame in my opinion. its songs have become classics and the ones in which kasabian as a band will ..  Read the complete review

Club Foot, L.S.F, Processed Beats, Cutt Off, Reason Is Treason etc...this album track list has enough stunning songs to make it one of the best debut albums of all time in my opinion, with Club Foot being (probably) my favourite song of all time and the start of it will blow your mind in a way that most bands couldnt do over 10 albums. The majority of this album makes up the staple of the band's live set list too and probably will for a long time, despite the fact that their second album is also a very strong effort, which says more about the strength of these songs than the "weakness" of the others. the song L.S.F is the perennial closer at the end ...  Read the complete review
