Bigmouths Strike Again: Talk Show Host Edition

On a normal day in Bigmouths, Kasabian would be the reveal after the jump. Today we're gonna shake it up and use the steady stream of crap that dribbles from their mouths to test your television-personality instincts. Guitarist Sergio Pizzorno told Guardian:

We did [television show]. It's like no other TV show 'cos everyone's shit scared of [person]. It's fucking freezing cold in there 'cos they don't want anyone sweatin' on camera. You're not allowed to be in the corridor when [person is] in the corridor. [Host]'s like one of those mad fuckin' sheikhs that you're not allowed to look in the eye.
Make your guess then take the jump. Kay, fine, we'll give you a hint on this one, too: It's not Oprah.

You can watch Kasabian's appearance on The Late Show here. Maybe it's the fear that's making 'em sound so shitty.

Kasabian's new album is suprisingly good. I heard all the bad press from things like stereogum and stayed away from it for a long time despite liking "Empire". It's a lot better than their first record actually.

I guess you guys must have been too busy praising the leak of the new lackluster Bloc Party album. Come to think of it, their first album only really had one palatable song. Only MSTRKRFT could save any of their releases now.

I had a teacher in high school who went to high school with Letterman. My teacher said Dave used to come over to his house to bang the ugly French exchange student who was living with his family.

Anyone who enjoys Kasabian's latest album must also be in love with Cute Is What We Aim For and Fergie. I obtained this theory by observing a crowd of scene kids that were wearing Kasabian shirts near Abercombie and Fitch.

Using this same theory I have determined that all black people love Michael Richards.

Don't blame the cold studio, I suspect that's just how Kasabian always sounds.

I think they sound great on that video especially considering the fact that they were complaining about the studio and its on TV which is normally crapola. and im not even a fan

Kasabian = Cat Poo
David Letterman = Cat Litter Box

At least one is useful. Go Dave!
