Most Kasabian albums are bloated pieces of work, having been created by some of the most assuredly loudmouthed rockers since the Gallagher brothers. West Ryder Pauper Lunatic Asylum is more demented than outsized, however, replacing the ego rock of Empire with a barmy blend of electronics, acoustics, thriller movie ambience, and industrial psychedelia. Producer Dan the Automator also adds touches of hip-hop to the mix, highlighting the band's rhythmic base by stripping back the layers of guitar and sampled synth. The result is an interesting, unexpected piece of work, devoid of a militantly commercial single like Empire's self-titled track, and lacking the shaggy Madchester vibes that Christopher Karloff brought to 2004's Kasabian. If the band's eponymous debut was the soundtrack to a drug-filled night in England's trendiest club, then West Ryder Pauper Lunatic Asylum is the soundtrack to the ensuing walk home, when that club has kicked out its last patrons and the streets are dark and forbidding. The bulk of West Ryder Pauper Lunatic Asylum canvasses unfamiliar territory, however, a wise move for a group that's routinely struggled to escape the shadow of its influences.
