I've heard the new Foals song just once on the radio and thought it sounded a bit like Kasabian
Were my senses deceiving me?
- Relevant artist taggings:
- None
-
Which one's this?
The one that they debuted a couple of months ago sounds like Pop-era U2.

Gave it a bit of chance
Over the last few weeks but it is utterly, utterly awful.
-
'Sounds a bit like Kasabian' is the new all purpose insult for any vaguely rocky music
Last used about Tame Impala
-
Yes, but
Elephant does actually sound quite a bit like Shoot the Runner. Tunes, both.
-
I said nowt bad about riffs.
I woudn't dare diss riffs. They'd beat me up.
-
I thought the song was called Inhaler
I wasn't actually insulting the song. I don't mind Foals. I don't like Kasbabian really, true, but it was a gut impression, not contrived. I find myself very rarely comparing bands to Kasabian. I probably need to hear the song more. But if the shoe fits.....

Don't like it
That 'My Number' track sounded good on Jools Holland though.
niallKP this'd this -
I've always thought Kasabian had lots of very good bits in a lot of their songs
but generally I can't stand them. Put a few of those bits together and you could make a song as good as Inhaler. I don't love it, but it's better than any Kasabian track.
Tiresias42 this'd this -
Yeah, I kind of agree with you
Kasabian's laddishness kind of undoes any good they do.
-
oh thank god
i thought i was the only one for a while who thought inhaler was naff

Inhaler is brilliant.
Soz, chaps.
shinymcshine and Wasted_Days this'd this -
My Number is FUCKING briliant
totally channeling Talking Heads Crosseyed And Painless era.
John_Ho this'd this -
overproduction
fucking hell
-
It really does
I was in the car yesterday and turned the radio on having no idea and I thought I was listening to Kasabian until they said it was Foals at the end. I did a double take.
-
love it
Love them both. Really looking forward to this album now
-
My Number is brilliant.
Holy Fire can't come soon enough.
-
Agreed
Really like My Number.
-
what on earth is wrong with you lot?
sounds like kasabian, seriously?
-
yeah
not sure about this Kasabian likeness, can't see it all really. The Song is great though
very excited about the albu
-
I love the verse of Inhaler
really groovy. Chorus is a bit too nu-metal for me though.
I really liked My Number on Jools Holland (those hi-hat hits reminded me of Shoes by Tiga) and it's full of pop hooks, but i'm not sure of the recorded version, bit too much reverb on everything IMO.
I don't get the Kasabian comparison. Hmm.
