    This album might satiate the seasoned Kasabian fan, but for anyone else it just comes across as the dated output of false prophets.

Whether they've pulled it off however, is perhaps up for debate. Musically, the album is very good and much more electronic in style than their previous material.

I look forward to their next release.… Full Review »
