This is the world’s first and only biography of Kasabian.

The rise of Kasabian has been a phenomenal one, driven by a mix of self-belief, relentless touring and hard living, all from humble beginnings in Leicestershire villages.
Their self-titled 2004 debut LP sold over 700,000 in the UK alone, and the band wowed crowds in festivals at Glastonbury, Reading/Leeds and T In The Park that year. Their second album, Empire, was released in September 2006 to great acclaim and surged straight to Number One in the UK charts, selling to date over a million copies and culminating in their ‘Best Live Act’ award at the 2007 NME awards. Through
a series of exclusive interviews with contemporaries and those involved in the band’s remarkable rise, the tale of Kasabian is told in its entirety for the first time. Hailed by many as the new Oasis, Kasabian’s tale is undoubtedly one of the most compelling recent developments in rock music’s colourful history.
