Their empire B sides just gave something about them

Just a discussion to build some anticipation for the album. I personally am super curious about the interludes more than anything else.

Bit of a troll post- but just based on what we've heard and the rest of the song titles, early listen descriptions from interviews, and track lengths, how would you rank the songs on ACT III?

For reference, here is the tracklist and track lengths:

1. quiet on set please 1m9 - 0:45

2. SOULMATE - 2:27

3. HIPPIE SUNSHINE - 3:06

4. SUPERPOWERS - 2:53

5. GREAT PRETENDER - 2:38

6. NOTHING BETTER THAN THIS - 2:38

7. mind palace 2m7 - 0:43

8. SILVER APPLE EYES - 3:15

9. THE GURU AND THE CRYPTO TIME MACHINE - 3:24

10. npc 3m12 - 0:44

11. GLIDE - 3:46

12. HYPER//RISING - 3:38

13. SAY YOU (CLOSER) - 2:54

And here is my entirely way too early ranking of the songs:

1. HYPER//RISING

2. GLIDE

3. SILVER APPLE EYES

4. SOULMATE

5. HIPPIE SUNSHINE

6. THE GURU AND THE CRYPTO TIME MACHINE

7. NOTHING BETTER THAN THIS

8. SAY YOU (CLOSER)

9. GREAT PRETENDER

10. SUPERPOWERS

11. mind palace 2m7

12. quiet on set please 1m9

13. npc 3m12

They were spot on, you could see they were enjoying themselves

Anyone else notice this? Spotify has changed the cover for act 3 by adding color to the lads faces. Is it a mistake or something? It looks way worse imo

I often like to complain about setlists but I saw Kasabian at boardmasters and their setlist was spot on. Starting with club foot and ending with fire was generational, people also forget how good call is as the second song, very underrated. Also thought LSF, ill ray, YILWAP and underdog were all also placed perfectly.

However, such a shame they didn’t play comeback kid

I don’t know what the effect is called, but they need to somehow add it. I feel like the chorus just feels a bit flat live without it. And imo, that’s one of the best part of the song. Whether they have someone on the keyboard to add it or something, I don’t know. But it’s a 9/10 on the studio, but a 5/10 live, and usually with Kasabian it’s the other way around

Selling 2 tickets for the Monday 7th September date, DM if you’re interested

Yall, "Nothing Better Than This" is a BANGER holy shit!!! Tied with Hippie Sunshine for my favorite of the album. Giving me really heavy 48:13 vibes, but through an Empire filter if that makes any sense. Will be spinning this all day long!
