Serge Pizzorno, leader dei Kasabian, si è lasciato andare a veri sentimentalismi in una recente intervista per Q Magazine.

Il frontman della band di Leicester ha parlato di un album che gli ha cambiato la vita, e che in qualche modo l’ha cambiata anche a molti di noi, Kid A dei Radiohead.

Queste le parole di Serge:

I loved OK Computer, but when Kid A came out it changed my life. It got leaked on Napster back in the day, my friend gave me a CD of Everything In Its Right Place and I literally  didn’t listen to anything else, analysed it, went mad. This is the best tune I’ve ever heard! And when the album came out it was constant. Had a huge influence on me, on what a rock band could be. To make a classic album and then go, ‘Nah, we’re gonna make this now,’ I always remember that.

For me, Thom Yorke’s probably Number One vocally, his voice gets me like Marvin Gaye, a way of getting to me like no one else. And I love that it divides people as well. It’s an honour to share that bill, that poster will be up in my studio. I’ve never met him. God knows what he’d make of us! I hope he’d be able to ignore all the bollocks.

Kid A è il quarto album in studio dei Radiohead, pubblicato nel 2000, e ritenuto uno degli album più influenti degli ultimi tempi.

I Kasabian nel frattempo stanno per pubblicare un nuovo album.
