For Crying Out Loud by Kasabian
"For Crying Out Loud" is the sixth studio album by English rock band Kasabian. It was released 5 May 2017 through Sony Music. The album's cover, designed by Aitor Throup, consists of a monochrome photograph of the band's longtime roadie, Rick Graham's naked bust with digitally animated tears emanating from his eyes. For Crying Out Loud received generally favourable reviews from music critics. At Metacritic, which assigns a normalized rating out of 100 to reviews from mainstream critics, the album received an average score of 70, based on nine reviews.
Inspired by Leicester City’s extraordinary Premier League win and the multicultural euphoria that swept their hometown, Kasabian prolong the party. Serge Pizzorno approached the band's sixth album as a reaction to the sonic experimentation of 2014’s <i>48:13</i>—its songs were written on guitar and almost all over a whirlwind six weeks of efficiency. They capture a songwriter basking in his sweetspot. “Good Fight” and “Comeback Kid” and “Bless This Acid House” are glorious anthems-in-waiting, while Pizzorno’s own favourite track—the hypnotic, groove-heavy “Are You Looking for Action?”—even manages the remarkable trick of clocking in at over eight minutes and feeling immediate.
