Kasabian are currently in the studio working on their third album, due for release in early 2009.

“It’s [got] a loony title mate, but we have a couple of titles and we have picked one that has lots of words, it’s a tongue twister!” said lead vocalist, Tom Meighan talking to XFM.

“It all joins together which is beautiful, there’s no gaps in it, it’s very psychedelic, there’s very much elements of the first but it’s a more distant sounding Kasabian than we have been with the last two albums,” he added.
