The Profile

Kasabian are an English rock band from Leicester, known for blending rock with electronic and psychedelic elements. Sergio Pizzorno has been their main songwriter, and after Tom Meighan’s departure the band continued with Pizzorno as frontman.

Formed in Leicester, England. Core members widely associated with the band include Sergio Pizzorno (guitar/songwriting; later frontman) and Tom Meighan (lead vocals until his exit). Their debut album “Kasabian” was released in 2004. The band’s style is commonly described as a mix of indie/alternative rock with electronics; reviews repeatedly reference Madchester, Britpop, psychedelia, and a strong live reputation.

Across these DeBaser reviews, Kasabian come off as a Leicester band built on swagger, big hooks, and a rock/electronics hybrid that flirts with psychedelia. “West Ryder…” is framed as a divisive pivot and “Velociraptor!” is repeatedly praised as a peak (or at least a mainstream consecration). Later-era takes split: “48:13” and “For Crying Out Loud” are seen as catchy but sometimes chaotic/derivative, while “The Alchemist’s Euphoria” is treated as a post-Meighan rebirth with Serge Pizzorno in front. Live, they’re consistently described as loud, engaging, and geared for crowd pandemonium.
