In 1992, two young friends from Leicester were listening to their favourite music on a cheap home stereo. Jumping around the bedroom, they pretended to be rock ’n’ roll stars in front of an audience of plastic toys. By the end of this summer those two lads, Kasabian's Tom Meighan and Serge Pizzorno, will have performed for more than a million fans on tour with Oasis— the heroes of their teenage years.
Tomorrow their third album, West Ryder Lunatic Pauper Asylum, will top the charts — cementing Kasabian’s status as the best British band of their generation.
Self-confessed film fanatic Serge has designs on writing movie scores when he retires from the rock rampage.
He said: “I’ll only leave this band when I’m dead. But I definitely would like to sit down and orchestrate a movie. Anything from an arthouse film, a really small budget film, to a huge James Bond theme.
“I don’t think there’s been a good James Bond theme for a long while, and I wouldn’t mind a crack at that. We’re a British band, so let us do it.”
