It’s not quite the same tho is it, Serge has a class voice it’s just not Toms 

It's both of them that makes Kasabian, cannot have one without the other. 

[IntoTheSurf]

I think this means they’ll probably go on a hiatus for a while. Don’t think they’d just have serge in vocals/ get a new singer 

[CG31]

I reckon Serge will write more stuff for when Tom hopefully comes back, but its also a good opportunity for him to keep the SLP going, of which his first album is very good imo

@RarerThanDandyB nice new profile photo, I bought Everything Now on CD last week and haven't turned it off, has to be one of my favourite albums of all time

It's a strange one, instead of taking a break, its stepped down which is quite concerning. Wikipedia have already made him 'former lead singer' which seems harsh though true. SLP will continue but with an album being done, I wonder whether they will continue either with Serge as lead singer or hire someone else though that isn't Kasabian. it will be interesting but more sad news, sick of it. Glad I saw them at Manchester Arena 2017, couldnt attend Leeds due to getting GCSE results and my parents being tight about it, maddening I know.

Thanks. Arcade Fire are class, up there with Radiohead for me. Everything Now is a brilliant album though I'm a sucker for Neon Bible (I shed a tear more often that not every time I listen to Intervention) but my favourite is basic but has to be Funeral - such a great album cannot wait for them to tour.

They’re such a brilliant band can’t wait to see them one day

Favourite song of every album for your guys?? For me:

Funeral: Rebellion (Lies)

Neon Bible : No Cars Go

The Suburbs: Rococo

Reflektor: Here Comes the Night Time

Everything Now: Peter Pan or We Don’t Deserve Love

                        *************************
On the Kasabian front, very glad I saw them in 2017 at Reading, Tom has said he’s alright on Twitter which means maybe it’s a permanent spilt I really hope not coz as many have said it’s just the same

Kasabian are one of few bands of their ilk I rate really highly. It sucks that Tom has stepped down but hopefully he can sort his issues and return to the band one day. They were outstanding headlining Leeds in 2012 (probably in my top 10 headline sets I’ve ever seen) and were great in 2017 for the half hour or so I saw before going elsewhere. I’ve been listening to them quite a bit over the last couple of months.

There soo good!

Funeral : Rebellion (lies) 

Neon Bible: Keep the car running

The Suburbs (such a great album) : We used to wait 

Reflektor : Reflektor 

Everything Now : Creature Comfort or Signs of life 

Just a brilliant band.

I still think Megan Thee Stallion will sub

I met Tom in a pub in Leicester about October last year. I’d popped into a bar to wait on my missus who was having her hair done and it was between 11-12 am and he wandered in pissed.

I could tell he was in a bad way and he turned quite antagonistic in conversation but he told me some bad stuff about what was happening in his life after I mentioned my dad had terminal cancer and at that point he turned into the sweetest person, it was a bit like a Jekyll and Hyde situation.

I really hope he takes time out and works on himself and gets better, I’d hate for us to wake up to reports about something dreadful happening to him.

Stories like this make me really hope that he can sort his own demons out. Am I right in thinking that he and Serge have been friends since they were at school or something equally as close?

Someone shared this on my Twitter. The Scum are horrible and this could be lies but the ‘Jekyll and Hyde’ personality. Plus The Scum I suppose know there showbiz as we know through Glastonbury. I would hate for this to be true.

Any chance of black veil brides? 

Can't see it, far more likely to do Download instead (they were booked for that this year, can see them being booked next year). First band I ever saw actually (not counting supports), way back in 2011.

Off to see Blossoms in March, got tickets for Kentish Town todah

That's a shame would be awsome live

Really gutted about the kasabian news, missed them at R'17 and IOW'18 - was so gutted on missing out on summer solstice, then happy as it was cancelled (lowkey obviously sucks like glasto etc cancelled too) and now gutted again.

Today’s a bad day because of the Tom Meighan news but it’s also the day I’ve been unbanned so silver linings and that

 

What have I missed in the last month or so?

I’d actually been predicting them to headline the pit/lock-up this year seeing as they were back. Hopefully next year, would be a great booking.
