Empire LP

Vinyl Edition.

Empire is Kasabian's second studio album and marks a decisive turn towards a broader, more theatrical sound. Building on the momentum of their debut, the band takes their influences even further, incorporating glam rock, psychedelia, dance music, and classic British rock into a cohesive whole designed for scale and impact.

Throughout the record, Kasabian aims for grand gestures: sweeping strings, powerful rhythms, and dramatic dynamic shifts that underscore their penchant for spectacle. Stylistically, Empire moves freely between defiant rock, luminous pop, and near-rave inertia, balancing melodic immediacy with experimental touches. Acoustic moments and cinematic outros soften the album's exuberance, revealing a more reflective side beneath the overconfidence.
