Kasabian or Arcade Fire?

[festilove]

Kasabian are (in my opinion) a better band to close the festival than Mumford were last year.

But surely the unmissable headliner of the two announced so far is Arcade Fire? Kasabian are good, but their lead singer is beyond arrogant and appeared to state Reading & Leeds had a better line up than Glastonbury (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XBFwBKIOlUQ - about 30 seconds in). Who are you looking forward to seeing more?

Kasabian................... cannot stand Arcade Fire!!

[kingcrawler]

Looking forward to Arcade Fire more, they're my favourite band and I've got no doubts that their set will be brilliant. I'll see Kasabian as well though, seen them a couple of times before and they're great live.

Are Arcade Fire just going to play The new album front to back? I swear I was listening to Zane Lowe the other day and he said they were

[dentalplan]

Reading and Leeds did have a better line up in 2012.

Love Kasabian but have seen them headline festivals 3 out of the last 4 years so have to go for Arcade Fire who I've never seen but really like

Why do I gave to choose one or the other? Can't I go and watch both, they are on different days after all

[bocumaroy]

Arcade Fire are much better at music.

Both put in good performances at GLASTO. AF for me was magical in 2007, and the sun briefly shone amongst the mud soaked field, and it was up there with my favourite sets.

Kasabian sub pyramid set in the sun was a great atmosphere, but since then they sort of went off the boil with me and developed too much of a attitude, I saw some poor headline sets on tv.

Arcade fire will be a definite, kasabian I may do if nothing else sways me

Think this thread gives the general consensus of people's views on here:

I'm in the Kasabian camp. Arcade Fire do nothing for me, I have tried to get into them & give them a chance a month or so back - but didn't really do anything for me..

Will guess that the AF set will roughly be same as their set this weekend at Coachella.

[captain reido]

Absolute no contest for me, Kasabian.

[alframsey]

Arcade Fire = one of the best bands in the world at the moment.

Kasabian = second best band in Leicester, behind Shawaddywaddy.

[rjb94]

I'm looking forward to Arcade Fire's set more, they're at the top of their game as far as playing live is concerned. Kasabian put on a decent show, but I'll probably be elsewhere.

[DJL]

Arcade fire by a long way. Though i will give the new kasabian album a listen and may end up seeing them.

[shineongas]

Arcade Fire. Black Keys will blow Kasabian off the pyramid on the Sunday.

[kidsfears]

Arcade Fire on the Other in 2007 was absolutely amazing, and they were fantastic when I saw them at Reading in the same year.

I found Kasabian extremely disappointing when I saw them on the Pyramid in 2009.

[Chimps in Balaclavas]

Out of the 2 Kasabian, although I'll probably be elsewhere for both.

I rate Black Keys higher than Arcade Fire too.

Both of these songs do way more for me than anything Rolling Stones or Mumford and Sons could ever do.

However, I can take or leave either. If I had to chose I'd go for AF......... but........ Black Keys into Kasabian on the Sunday sounds like a good way to end the festival now I think about it.
