Written by Serge Pizzorno and produced by Serge and Dan the Automator, is a turbo-charged rock anthem; a full on rant from start to finish sped along by Tom Meighan’s searing vocal. “Vlad is a total chaos tune,” enthuses Serge. “It’s a call out to all our people, the ones who are tuned into our radio station.” Additionally, “Underdog”, another track off “WRPLA” is currently featured in a worldwide Sony Bravia ad campaign featuring star footballer Kaká.
It was just announced that Kasabian have been confirmed to play on the Pyramid Stage at Glastonbury this year on Saturday, June 27th. They are being billed as the “special guests” of headliner Bruce Springsteen.
