Looks like there is a clear trend here – people either love the singles or the non-singles, mostly ROCKET FUEL, STARGAZR and TUE.

I like that people have completely different favourites. It would be boring if everyone liked the same songs. One thing I've always thought made Kasabian stand out was that they're so eclectic, they've got something for everyone.

UK sales broken down by Musicweek:
13,088 CDs 5,907 vinyls 822 cassettes 709 digital 1,022 sales-equivalent streams
That's not a whole lot, is it? 1,500 streams equal one album sale.

That's because streaming quality Kasabian is pretty much the worst format to listen to them on and most of their fans know it. Only those sad few of us with little other option tend to use it. But I have recently acquired a turntable and I will soon start building my vinyl collection starting with their seven albums! Soon I will be "in the know"

I've been listening to the album on repeat in my car to really get to know it. I love ALMOST all the songs, with the exception of Letting Go (which I find really boring) and Stargazr (I just don't feel it goes anywhere and I know I'll find it a bit dull, live). Other than those two songs, I'm really enjoying the singles and the non-singles.

Pretty much the same as Pip ,I can’t get into Stargazr and Letting go and I’m not too fond of the Wall.My top 3 are T.U.E Scriptvre Chemicals T.U.E feels like it can belong on WRPLA .Also I have really grown to like ALCHEMIST.

T.U.E is a gem, the best in the album in my opinion. I also love Alchemist it could be longer but instantly when it ends scripture kicks in so I guess that was the point, strictly old skool and rocket fuel are nice too. The non singles seem pretty strong generally.

Down to #34 this week, surely got to be down to streaming numbers? Although it was #47 in the midweeks so didn’t end up too bad.

Am I wrong or none of the snippets from their social media appears on AE?

I'm not sure but the Monday morning one gives me Scriptvre vibes. This was in the early days, some of it might be unfinished scraps that never grew into songs. They might have binned some things after Tom was gone. I don't really know the album well enough yet to say for sure. (I hope he still has those posters that are behind him in the first clip, I'm in that picture. I always got such a kick out of the fact that I've got him on my wall and he's got me on his lol.)

That guitar clip I had totally assumed would be on the album because they used it again in November for a promo thing. It must be a finished song….maybe at the last minute it didn’t make the cut for the album?
