What?? It seems that Jay Mehler, guitarist with Kasabian, is leaving Kasabian to become the bassist in Liam Gallagher's Beady Eye. This makes no sense to me. I don't Kasabian's latest work as well as I know the first two albums, and I know Kasabian supported Oasis or High Flying Birds or something at some point, but Beady Eye seem so derivative and uninspired, why would you leave Kasabian, a still creative force, for Beady Eye?
But then I thought about it, and Andy Bell of Ride joined Oasis in their later years, and that's an even bigger travesty! Ride in the early '90s were AMAZING!! Oasis were tired by 1996 (although their first album was brilliant and deserves all the acclaim they got.... Morning Glory was a great maturation, but it wasn't as 'fresh' as Definitely Maybe. But how could you go from Ride, a wonderfully creative force (up til about '94) to tired old Oasis?
I don't get it, and I don't think it's about the money, either. Well, I hope Beady Eye's second album is better than the first one!
