È Il Titolo Del Nuovo Album Dei Kasabian LUNEDì 28 APRILE 2014 Che cos'è un album se non la somma di tutte le sue parti ? Per celebrare dieci anni di carriera i KASABIAN pubblicano il loro nuovo "48:13" è il titolo del nuovo album attesissimo album intitolato 48:13, composto da 13 nuovi brani la cui dei Kasabian lunghezza, sommata, totalizza una durata totale di appunto 48 minuti e 13 secondi. L'album uscirà in Italia 10 Giugno ed è disponibile in preorder da oggi su iTunes Il suono inconfondibile e l'integrità artistica del quinto album in studio dei KASABIAN definiscono l'essenza stessa della band: un suono e un'attitudine che sono un vero e proprio marchio di fabbrica, distillati e confezionati con una purezza ed uno stile veramente unici ed esaltanti. LA REDAZIONE 48:13 è un lavoro che conferma la strenua volontà della band di portare avanti un progetto di evoluzione e sperimentazione musicale che si è sviluppato già attraverso i 4 album precedenti e che ora subisce un'enorme accelerazione verso "ambienti" musicali decisamente imprevedibili ed avanzati, scandendo ulteriormente lo sviluppo di una [email protected] band come i KASABIAN. SPETTACOLINEWS.IT L'album uscirà in Italia 10 Giugno ed è disponibile in preorder da oggi su iTunes (https://itunes.apple.com/it/album/48-13/id865346013 ). Il chitarrista e vocalist Sergio Pizzorno, in tema di scrittura e produzione di 48:13 commenta: "Ho sentito chiaramente la necessità ma anche la confidenza nell'essere più diretto e più onesto con questo album. Ho cominciato a "sottrarre" piuttosto che a "sommare", mantenendo la forma delle canzoni e degli arrangiamenti più essenziale possibile." Tom Meighan, l'esplosivo frontman della band è ancora più diretto: "Meno è meglio, non trovate ? E' diretto, è quello che è e quello che vuole essere. Ascoltatelo e basta. Abbiamo avuto la sicurezza di noi stessi necessaria per metterci a nudo. Sergio ha ridotto il nostro suono all'essenza. E' incredibile." Serge Pizzorno ha sempre citato come sue principali influenze e fonti di ispirazione 3 generi musicali precisi: la musica elettronica, l'hip hop e la musica pop/rock di fine anni '60. E non è mai esistito un album capace di fondere armonicamente questi tre elementi in un'unica ampia visione artistica. Questa è musica "progressiva" che non dimentica le sue radici profonde, un ponte fra quello che è stato e che permane, e quello che Pag. 1 / 2 sarà e ci possiamo immaginare. Il primo singolo "Eez-Eh"("Easy") è solo un esempio dell'amplissimo spettro espressivo di "48:13" e della grande duttilità compositiva e produttiva di Pizzorno. Un beat irresistibile e irrefrenabile, dalle tinte notturne che senza dubbio incendierà I fan che si accalcheranno sotto il palco dei prossimi concerti estivi dei KASABIAN, primi fra tutti quello del 29 Giugno, quando suoneranno sul Pyramid Stage di Glastonbury e quello del 21 Giugno nella loro citta natale Leicester, al Victoria Park. Il video di "Eez-eh" ("Easy") è stato diretto dall'acclamato artista e designer Aitor Throup, che ricopre anche il ruolo di direttore creativo dell'album e ha creato una identità visiva all'intera campagna di lancio. L'approccio spiccatamente concettuale di Aitor Throup riflette la natura diretta della musica di questo album, che è evidente nell'uso costante e provocatorio del rosa shocking e dei numeri delle durate dei brani riportate direttamente sul fronte della copertina dello stesso album. I Kasabian saranno in concerto quest'autunno in Italia. I KASABIAN sono: Sergio Pizzorno: chitarra, voci e produzione artistica Tom Meighan: voce Chris Edwards: basso Ian Matthews: batteria Tim Carter: chitarra (nuovo membro della band) Pag. 2 / 2.

L'album è il seguito di "48:13" del 2014 dove il gruppo di Leicester aveva seguito una direzione più elettronica, mentre ora la loro intenzione dichiarata è quella di far in modo che siano le chitarre a essere le protagoniste assolute. ANTONIO GALLUZZO È un concentrato di tutto ciò che ha reso famosi I Kasabian e oltre a "You're In Love With A Psycho", contiene altri pezzi potenti come "Bless [email protected] This Acid House", destinato a diventare una hit estiva, la SPETTACOLINEWS.IT contagiosa "Good Fight", il pezzo dal sapore rock steady "Ill Ray (the King)".
