Kasabian Returns To North America

U.S. and Canada fans have waited five years for Kasabian to play North America. Now they only have to wait until March to see their heroes.

The Brit band is touring in support of their Velociraptor! album. Released in September, the album debuted at top of the U.K. charts and was a major hit in several countries throughout the world. What’s more, if you liked Velociraptor! the first time you bought it, Kasabian is giving you a chance to purchase it again in the form of a special release.

Limited to 1000 copies worldwide, the Velociraptor Super Deluxe Box Set contains a hard-back sketchbook featuring the album’s lyrics, illustrations and previously unseen photos. You also get a poster and four metal feathers that are physical representations of the artwork found on the singles’ covers.
